Saban ran out of money.

@Phantom Rider  
I don’t think Saban was concerned with great stories when it came to Beetleborgs,or they would have at least given the show an ENDING.The only Saban Toku show to get a real ending was Mystic Knights,and Masked Rider at least had a strong last episode with Invasion of Leawood,depending on what the order of the episodes are.

@Dex Stewart  
Mystic knights obviously had completely original footage while the other shows relied on a mixture of original footage and stock footage from Japan.

@09MurphyM  
No way! Really?!

One of the neat things about the Mecha battles in GOGO-V is that they had uses for all of the mecha.

@Phantom Rider
 
Or they could have had Flabber use his magic to being the “true” Beetleborgs into the real world.

I like the Idea of Kiramaizin having two separate robot forms as well.

Speaking of lost team-ups, they could’ve used the later Zordon Era ones. Ohranger/Carranger could come late in Turbo. We always wondered what happened to the Zeo Crystal; what about, the Zeo Rangers had to return to action because of the coming of Dark Specter? I mean, if I’m in the writing room, and there’s this cool crossover in the Japanese footage, and I know we’re about to go from PRT to PRIS with (a) the looming threat of Dark Specter, and (b) the Turbo Rangers getting the spandex beaten off of them needing new gear, and (c) the Zeo stuff not getting dusted off for any of this, then to me, the solution is obvious: the old guard shows up, explains that Zordon un-retired them and sent them to become the Zeo Rangers again because they’ll need everyone for what’s coming, they fight Oh/Car’s villains together (naturally, in this version they’ve been sent by Dark Specter and are said to be far from the worst he’s got) and go off to battle on another front in the end.
 
(As for Mega/Car, it’s the return of the robot Turbo Rangers.)

@Phantom Rider  
The problem with that is that it took until lost galaxy for the teams to be different for each season.

@09MurphyM  
Like I said, there were people who could’ve been used. The former Turbo rangers reclaim the Zeo powers in preparation for Dark Specter’s impending arrival, then a season later, the robot Turbo Rangers back up the Space Rangers.

@Phantom Rider  
Honestly, nobody knows what even happened to the Zeo powers. They simply disappeared after the Turbo powers were introduced.

I have a theory…

I wonder if Shout Factory will also eventually do Power Rangers Dino force brave, the sequel series to Kyoryuger.

One of the most notable toku cliches is the villains declaring that they are going send out their strongest monster as early as episode 5.

Ryusoulger’s final arc is shaping up to be one of the most interesting.

@Phantom Rider  
It’s also feels a bit random that Eras would just randomly appear with no foreshadowing.

Once again, TV-Nihon and Overtime are the only fansub groups that still seem to be alive. All of the others like GUIS really need to consider giving updates regularly to reassure their fans that they are still working on stuff instead of staying silent for months or even years.

 
Why does Kim have a headband?I like the kinda-sorta-movie-armor looks.  
 
They have a picture of one of those old MMPR chapter books.

It’s weird how crossovers like Gaoranger Vs Super Sentai portray all red rangers as being the leader, even if they are from a season where another color is the actual leader.

Welp.Ryusoulger is the next PR Season.They better have a good reason for skipping Toqger,Zyuohger,Kyuranger andLupinranger vs Patranger.Toqger got skipped for looking “too pre-schoolish,and Saban proceeded to give us the most juvenile seasons in the series.Dino Charge skipped Go-Busters,but they had a clear idea of what they wanted to do with it.Ninja Steel didn’t have anything to do with ninjas,or any of the elements from Ninninger.

@Dex Stewart  
And here I was hoping for ToQger. It’s too soon since Dino Charge to use a series that looks so much like Dino Charge, unless it’s going to be connected. (In which case, maybe the dino-teamup would lead into it.) But, that’s unlikely.

@Dex Stewart
 
Honestly, I’m glad he finally spoke up about this (I was always a little skeptical about the incident even with the video), but he could’ve saved himself a lot of grief if he hadn’t waited 13 years to do so (not to mention he would often block people on social media who simply asked him about it non-confrontationally, which didn’t help his case).

@Phantom Rider  
I have no idea what to expect from Hasbro,now.I thought for sure they’d do Toqger,since I couldn’t imagine them having any bias towards it,but I was definitely not expecting them to jump ahead multiple seasons to the one that isn’t even done airing.All I can guess is they havce specific ideas for that season,or it’s going to tie in with Beast Morphers somehow.
 
@Jarkes  
I know people who’ve met him at conventions and they say he was nice and polite,but other people say he’s confrontational.I always thought the story of him just walking off with the banner was odd,like,the staff just let him do whatever? I remember a while ago at some award show Jim Carrey got scolded for sitting in the wrong seat.Just because you’re a celebrity doesn’t make you impervious to rules.
