If connected with S.P.D., then it should be that S.P.D. has only barely taken itself public, with a police force that is the genesis of public extraterrestrial relations!

The two sides are less villainous, but they have a connection to their pasts! Possibly they are childhood friends or met each other in younger days briefly. If they did a "cops-and-robbers" theme when the sides were kids, then perhaps the Patrangers played the robbers and the Lupinrangers played the cops but ended-up on opposites sides as they got older!

The Ganglers are the main concern.

Dogranio doesn't amuse me, design-wise.

Either replace him with a Zyuohger villain like Pocane Daniro from Zyuohger Returns (which also has a crime theme) or make somebody new!

Gauche feels like she would not work for P.R. and American censors.

Again, whether Zyuohger is or isn't adapted, I would use Naria here! This necessitate the fact that most of the Monster enlargements would have to be redone!

Destra doesn't feel like an issue!

Podaman do, given they look like a skull with a bullet in it!

I would use the Clothes/Close from ToQger as they would keep the "crime-theme"! They actually did use elements of the Close in Ep. 11 during the Patranger Movie plot!

Since they are COPS in a supposed kids show, and since S.P.D. skirted the "Delete Approved" of Dekaranger with "Card Containment", then most of the Gangler Monsters should be a tad different from Sentai.

Given that the Gangler naturally (or unnaturally) have safes on their bodies, then perhaps P.R. could use "Monsters" who are actually human criminals Monster forms with added safes, only for the Monster form to be "destroyed" and the human safely arrested!

The Team Gear should not be directly related to whatever the "Lupin Collection" becomes, and since the Lupin Collection nods older Sentai, then it should be directly connected to older P.R.

For example, one Lupin Piece looks like a Changer from Timeranger, painted gold! This Piece should become the de-powered version of a new Chrono Morpher for Time Force Gold!

As for names, I'm along the lines of "Power Rangers Phantom Patrol", though that is tentative!
