Well their reason for changing kabuto and stag to mantis and scarab was that, "beetles are too scary for kids", so an entire show full of crawling bugs.... I think they might skip it in favor of something else unless they're willing to re-evaluate their logic.

I thought it was that they felt two beetles was too similar and didn't stand out as much?

Okay. I guess Zyuohger is the best choice for adaptation.

Here's the tweet I found. Harmless kabuto beetles are too scary, but predatory praying mantises are totally kid-friendly. Okay, Bennett.

Why is the Gold Ranger based on a mantis in the show?
He?s apparently a rhino beetle in the Super Sentai, but we have to make this show for kids. So we need to ensure that the types of animals we choose are ones that kids can say and recognize.

Fair enough, that logic isn't quite as stupid as I thought, considering that kabuto beetles are native to Japan. However, King-Ohger has both a mantis and a kabuto, which might push Hasbro in a corner if they tried to adapt it.

That between kikanoids, computer characters and cool-looking aristocrats, the latter are easier to adapt. And as for the types of beetles, you can just not focus too much on them. Let it be just the Red Beetle, and whoever wants to know more can google it.
