Right people, for those of you interested, the first ep of the new sentai called Gekiranger is up on youtube, subbed of course.

Lesson one part:-1, 2, 3.

And yeah i know its not Power Rangers, but its related!

It'll be next year's PR, seeing as how every Sentai series becomes PR in the states. Just wanting to know what they'll call it. Soemething w/cats in it............

Im going to take a guess and say it will be titled PR: crouching tiger, hidden dragon.

Maybe, though there are no dragons so far
Who really cares what Gekiranger will be called when its turned into a PR season, lets just enjoy it for now.

By the way, Gekiranger Lesson 2 is up on Youtube!

From what I can remember I only saw
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
Power Rangers: Zeo
Power Rangers: Turbo
Power Rangers: Time Force
Power Rangers: Ninja Storm

I did watch some of the PR shows, most noticeably MMPR, Turbo, Zeo, Lightspeed Rescue and SPD

I did read on the internet that since PR has always been made by Toei, some of the staff who worked on transformers, designed most of the zords. That would explain why some of the later Megazords and Zords resembled the likes of Trypticon, Predaking, the Dinobots and Defensor

To clarify: Toei makes the Super Sentai shows Power Rangers is based on, Bandai Japan makes the toys. Companies do look at eachother from time to time though.

All I really remember was Tommy and the Dragon Zord were pwnage incarnate.

Yup, the Dragonzord was quite awesome:

Who doesn't love a mechanical dragon that shoots missiles from it's fingertips? And I agree, after the In Soace season, I lost interest yet kept watching it. Most of the post MMPR era series were okay, but would never be the same as the first, the best, the original. I think the overdid it w/evil rangers, & put too much dependance on the zords, plus there were way too many zords. I liked it when there were usually 7 that formed the Ultrazord when needed & then annihilated the monster. I've also begun to watch Zyuranger on Youtube & it's not bad at all. Saw the season finale & thought it was pretty good. What's great about the Sentai is that it can be more violent & look more menacing. *cough* Lokar/Dai Satan *cough*

Ah yes, the Dragonzord. Always wanted it when I was a kid, and I distinctly remember one time my parents said they would buy it for me, I looked around several different stores, and couldn't find it . Having resemblence to Mecha-Godzilla and green being my favorite color also contributed as to why it was one of my favorite Zords in the show.

I also lost interest around Power Rangers in Space. Think I saw the first couple episodes or so, and just kinda forgot about it. I would also have been about 12 or 13 when it came out, so that's probably also why I lost interest. I still have a nastalgia for the original series though, but I just can't get into the newer stuff.

Now the Japanese Sentai stuff might be something I'd get into, cause I feel that things are always better in there original format.

I (for some reason) have seen every form of PR since MMPR except for PR: Mystic Force. The best is MMPR

The episode of MMPR with the like frog thing that ate the rangers used to scare the bejesus out of me as a lad.
