Yeah I gotta admit, I may have given up on Boukenger, but the designs and implementation of the mecha stuff was SWEET.

Jungle Fury (as I've only fully seen the PR counterpart) certainly rivalled Bouken in design in all of that glorious sleekness, but not so much in implementation. I dunno, cheap ass cockpits like Goseiger aside, I like seeing them actually steer it. The way the Jungle Fury Rangers stood in an empty room full of dry ice was really lame to me.

On the opposite end of the scale I thought the Mystic Force zord concept was awesome (BECOMING the zords? AWESOME. It makes so much sense for the show as well unlike - using the example again - Goseiger where a bunch of angels had....a giant robot?!), but found the designs impressively bland, especially with the overuse of TERRIBLE CG.
