Maybe they've decided to make the move to not include skirts, like you said, as of King-Ohger, but include them only if it works for the suit and stuff.
Which I assume is to differentiate from King-Ohger, maybe?

I like the suits; they look a lot like something a professional race car driver would wear. The helmets are also there.

I mean... just... Yikes. Quote:
Also do race car drivers normally wear clown shoes? |

I mean in terms of design, not materials. Also, I didn't notice the shows; those were a choice.

I've seen the leaks and I was going to give my thoughts on those, but then this dropped and... well, I have things to say...
These suits look bad... in the best way! It's such a Showa look from the lips (which I'll admit am not a fan of) to the tire faces with patterns, ala Goranger or Jak-Q, they look very retro. And those shoes... Those gosh darn shoes! I kind of like them. Sure, I'll miss the fantastic designs we've been getting since Lupinranger Vs Patranger, and that we've had such amazing suits since, but I'm not opposed to more retro designs. Though, they are still slightly different from the norm as we've been seeing with some of Reiwa's Sentai designs. Also, from the Poster it's official the "Boon" was intentional and not me thinking they mistranslated "Boom-Boom" though they were probably going for that. I kind of expect something wacky or classical monster-of-the-week for this show, but we shall see.

I've never seen Talladega Nights, but one of the chicken joints in my area has a poster inside when you go through the drive-thru with Will Ferrell's face and the line "I Wanna Go Fast".
I get that same vibe when I see these suits. It looks like it's sense of identity and character will be rooted in its over-the-top and semi-comedic approach; a Sentai that won't take itself too seriously and focus on the fun that comes from fantasy itself. I don't see what's wrong with the boots, but the helmets are an acquired taste to be sure. Kinda like the seat belt buckle, honestly. Nice subtle touch with a hint of whimsey. The car besides Red is also curious cause it has the same classic touch as the Turbo GT from Turboranger. Remember that red car that Jada included with their Mighty Morphin' Red Ranger Nano Metal-Fig? Not completely unlike that in terms of color and feels. I'm willing to look past the surface details and reserve any harsh presumptuous judgement. I need to see more. |

I think it's meant to invoke the suit race car driver's wear?

I was curious if we'd see the return of armor again. Rather nice to have the slim look back.
Those helmets...Certainly exist.
