I saw the pics of the look alike guy and for me they are only sightly similar.
So, theres going to be a new Power Rangers series produced by Saban again?
Yes, sometime late this year or early next year. The next season is going to be taking footage from Shinkenger. So here are the outfits we'll be seeing:



This is the megazord.


The Zords






The series will be Samurai themed, the Zords are themed after Origami.

So is it going to be called Power Rangers Calligraphy Force?

Sorry, I just thought the whole brush stroke/calligraphy aspect of the series odd.

I think it'll be called Power Rangers Samurai Thunder/Storm/Hurricane/Force....something like that. The Calligraphy thing was because they had powers over words, but the whole thing might be edited out so who knows.

Please, oh please, oh PLEASE have them try to include the first attempt at forming the Shinkenger zord. I laughed till I was *sick* at that.

This plus the Kamen Rider Double 'violin on the beach' scene were my favorite toku/sentai scenes this year.

Currently playing:
The Domestic: Broom/WP
Shadowhex: Dark Control/Dark Affinity
Defenestration Lass: Grav/Kin

I would love it if they rebooted the entire series from the beginning with a more adult feel to it, cutting the fluff eps out. Something closer to the first movie's style, but with better CG and such.

That IS my favorite Sentai moment so far.

My favorite Kamen Rider moment is from Kiva. In the end, Wataru's son comes from the future and you get to see Dark Kiva, Kiva, Emperor Kiva, IXA and the three sealed beasts henshin and then kick into the air.

Lightspeed Rescue IMO, came the closest to that.

I don't know, RPM was a bit darker than normal for Power Rangers as well. Seeing as how the Bad Guys in that one pretty much had already won at the beginning with only one city left in the entire world that was 'safe'.

What they should do is keep it to par with the Japanese level of Tokusatsu. Super Sentai and Kamen Rider seem to be more fitting for an older audience, then again I noticed that my Japanese friends tend to mature much faster than myself or my other friends.

Haha, cool!

Goodbye. Not to the game, but the players. Goodbye. Everyone, remember to have fun. That's all I can say.

That was a mod someone actually made a while back by Electro, I think.

I didn't use the helmets because they didn't look right.

Also, thank you to everyone for your nice comments!
