Power Rangers - the appreciation and discussion thread

[sdp]

I don't understand what it is, so a show but a tabletop game that plays on twitch?

Is the show meant to be in the Power Rangers Universe?

[The Deadman]

Its gonna be a show that solely focuses on the RPG

I guess I'll give it a shot but doesn't sound too appealing.

Bandai America Issue's Official Statement On Female Power Rangers Action Figures Being Nixed

Well as much as female fans and feminists in general like to complain, girls just don't buy action figures. It's sad since I hate having incomplete sets because they preferred to make b-tier male bad guy over main character female.

There's also the problem that Bandai missed the point with the Legacy line, not having their weapons at first, having the scale be off with what most of the fandom wanted/expected. I'm still waiting for the perfect Power Rangers toyline, I will only keep my Green Ranger figuarts and sell most of my other toys.

oh boy...

Also Garo: Kiba - the dark knight was announced for a Feb release

More or less it'll be like everything else on Twitch but with the tabletop aspect

curious gonna try out legacy wars...not expecting much.

Would rather a new fighting edition game.

The hyper force intro is pretty cool, I'm curious to how it's going to be, I feel like it could either be a lot of cheesy fun or just plain horrible. The theme is nice, It's awesome seeing Bulk as a Ranger though I guess he's "Jack" and I'm guessing Rangers aren't real in this show. The Game Master and Vesper look like they're totally into their roles and would make great actual Power Rangers characters, the rest are "meh" though I guess they'll be serviceable.

Have you not tried it yet? This Megazord mode seems to play exactly the same as the normal game.


I want to love the game since it has so much fan service from all the history of Power Rangers except the original movie, but the game is so tedious and gets boring after a few days. Why not spend their money on another type of game that is also "legacy"?

[Allio]

the game is pretty bad. I'm gonna go a week or two (grinding for Morphboxes) and see exactly if this game is worth trying out.

as for a regular game...they are cheap. I honestly expect them just to bring in a kamen rider game (ie, Battride) and just replace riders with Rangers...honestly would be a MUCH better gamethan the last one.

Saban have abandoned their trademarks for the movie

[Krutch]

That's....not promising.

[cammy85]

That will only affect any sequels to the movie. The show will be fine.

BOOM's Daniel Bayliss has illustrated the Hyperforce team

Even if influenced by previous suits they're pretty damn awesome and makes you wish Saban was given a chance to design the suits one year.

Female black and Bulk as a Ranger! So awesome! I wish it were canon.

Here's the Power Rangers Hyperforce Panel from TwitchCon 2017.

[Allio]

So since it looks like that Garo will get a release every two months (2 for every main season, 1 for every special/movie) then just by going by up to the upcoming movie, it will take about 3 years and 8 months to get caught up and of course that isn't including anything past God Fang movie.

Looks like the Sequel to the Power Rangers movie might not be happening

Here's what the Hyperforce Rangers look like in-universe without their helmets

Here's what Saban had to say about the movie logo being dropped.

"Power Rangers continues to own and renew hundreds of trademark registrations worldwide, including for the 2017 movie logo. The trademark registration process is very nuanced, and the status of the single application has no bearing on our ownership of or the future plans for Power Rangers. The franchise remains as strong and enthusiastic about its future as ever."

Wow, that's vague

[ranger_scout]

Austin St. John what made him fall back in love with the franchise and the impact it has made on people.
