I'm actually shocked they didn't do this for Gokaiger.

Why are you shocked? The 5 Gokai Machines that got toys were the only ones originally meant to. In fact the 5 sentai featured because of the toys were the only ones originally going to receive high profile tribute episodes.

If not for the efforts of the actors of played Ginga Red & Black Knight Hyuga the various other tribute episodes that occur through out the series would have never occurred. They got the word out on social media to other past actors that this show was even happening, and the requests to return just poured into Toei. That's why later Grand Powers are a bit less exciting like summoning Daibouken's sword, getting fire hoses from GoGoV, or Gokai Oh outright becoming Super Live Robo. That's why these latter powers don't feature original mecha, they were never meant to exist. But see Toei listens to it's fans and wealth of past actors rather than ignoning them entirely like another company blatantly does.

So that Megawing scene in the final episode was 100% a last minute addition. DX Furaimaru had been out for months by that point so no such plan to include a gimmick like this could have been made, or ever existed. However I will say again that this is a very cool idea from BOA, albeit very poorly executed in the final product. But definitely an original thought in the right direction along the lines of the Zeo Racer.
