If a toy is in the Sentai, it'll be in the Power Rangers equivalent - no sense wasting footage that could help turn a bigger profit.

US-only toys though, I agree with.

Well that's what I meant. But I'd imagine we could be looking at the end of cockpit modes, and US only battilizer forms.

Battilizers sell like hotcakes...but generally only the one(s) that appear in-show so I doubt that one.

Therefore a 3D animated series makes sense because Hasbro owns an animation studio already.

They can and will be "gotten away from", when in mutual agreement.

You're honestly an idiot if you think Toei would ever sell it's half of Power Rangers. It makes them far, far too much money.

Can Saban not license the series from Zyuohger onwards?

They have/are/can. Dizagaox's little theory holds no water and has nothing backing it up.

Ah, so there’s a chance we might see a Zyuohger or Kyuuranger adaptation after Beast Morphers, then?

Saban has to have a working relationship with Toei, as Toei owns the rights to Go-Busters.
The decision to go back to Go-Busters was a joint one, as Toei dictates which seasons Saban uses.

Saban has full access to Zyuoh and Kyu, they just chose to adapt a series with better marketability, as Kyu's gimmick relied on electronics, which seemed to be the one thing they like cutting the most (Well, that's BOA's MO, but Hasbro doesn't do a lot of electronics in their TFs too often), while Zyuoh's cube gimmick is a harder sell.
