Now I'm hoping their final attack is they line up like a train and just rush the monster

These pictures do seem suspiciously high res for this early on... Maybe they're fake?

Wow, I went from excited to meh in 30 seconds, the costumes look bland and uninspired to be honest, rail tracks could have been utilised on the costume in a better manner if that was what they were going for.

Plus Tokkyu-oh looks, dare I say it, crap.

You know I think i'm beginning to understand the blandness of the costumes. They're designed intentionally without a lot of unique identifying features. Mostly to facilitate the "Transfer Transformations". It allows the effects guys and costume designers to easily execute the color swap gimmick on each costume. I can appreciate it from that aspect.

It's more interesting how the toys replicate it by having each figure feature a number dial on their head. And they come with all 5 personalized weapons. You can make any numbered version of that color at that point.

That isn't really an excuse though. Look at Gaim's gimmick, and sure they all have the same base suits and base shapes but each new Seed provides a unique armour and power set. All they're doing here is using a different colour body sock.

After looking at stuff again, I hate it less.
The way TokkyuOh(god these names) comes together is better than dinosaurs floating around, and the simplistic design should at least guarantee the Minipla has full articulation...
And the accessory trains are the best kind: not limb swaps.

Yeah, that works... until you make it the number of another gender.

But that's all they have to work with when it comes to sentai. They aren't armored in the same way that riders are, generally just basic spandex/lycra suits with a few other ornamentations. . The gimmick can't work quite the same way it does say for Gaim.

I'm not saying it's a great gimmick by any means. But it helps me understand the costumes better.
