We have even more details and some new images to share with you on the upcoming Power Rangers Megaforce! Before we continue, a huge special thanks to Fury Diamond of Samurai Cast Blog and RangerCrew for all the information and pictures he’s taken. Without his effort there’d still be a lot of questions waiting to be answered.

Now on to the good stuff!!
- Power Rangers Megaforce will span two seasons, 20 episodes and 2 holiday specials each, for a grand total of 44 episodes
- Power Rangers Megaforce will run through 2014
- The MMPR White Ranger in the 20th Anniversary Poster is there simply for marketing purposes, nothing more
- Goseiger adapted because Saban is “unable” to skip a season
- ”Gokaiger fans will be very pleased when the time is right” – Fury Diamond upon his off-the-record conversation with Saban Brands
- Power Rangers Megaforce to have an original story compared to Tensou Sentai Goseiger … for starters, the heroes are five teenage high school students. The show will still use Sentai footage, but the story will be “completely new and original”. Megaforce will surprise fans.
- Placeholder name for Gosei Knight is currently Robo Knight
- Robo Knight will appear earlier in Megaforce than Goseiger
- “Megaforce Season 2 will be crazy.” – Saban Brands
- Megaforce will be featured this year in Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
There’s a lot of information there to digest. The important thing to take away is the incorrect information from yesterday – Goseiger was NOT selected because Gokaiger is too boy-focused and features unattractive themes like plundering/looting. Regarding some of the quotations from Saban Brands regarding Megaforce and Goseiger…
…need I remind everyone at the start of Power Rangers Samurai, the cast was on record stating “we are different characters than the Japanese series, it’s a different show entirely.” It turns out, Power Rangers Samurai is a direct episode-by-episode, line-by-line translation of Shinkenger.
Time will tell what we have in store for us. If the only change to the story is five high school teenagers compared to five angels, it’s going to be a long two years. Unless of course you thoroughly enjoyed Goseiger, in which case, you must be pretty excited! (we’re talking about you Sentai).
Enjoy!

I really want to be hopeful with this one. Thankfully, Saban is only making that easier.
They'd better give RoboKnight a voice as luscious and deep at GoseiKnight's.

Since Megaforce will be focusing on five teenagers instead of five angels, I have a couple of questions:
1) Will Saban edit out the angel wings on the Goseiger footages, or shoot their own scenes to avoid those angelic wings?
2) Will they explain why the Red & Pink Rangers have the similar marking on their costume, and different than the other three Rangers? It's obvious that they won't go with the whole tribal origin in Goseiger.
Btw, that Megaforce Red Ranger in the convention is very tall. I wonder if it means they will cast an actor who is much taller than Alata in the series? And how would that account for the height discrepancy in the sentai footages?

I'm so happy that Gokaiger will be used at some point! In the mean time I'll be happy to see what they do with Goseiger having only seen them in the team up movies.
I literally laughed out loud when Kickback called out Senati!
Dr Kain says
They are going to stretch the show out through 2012? -_-
I think I said that earlier today that that means when they get to Gokaiger (2015), they will be FOUR SERIES BEHIND!!!

Now that we have this info, I can't wait to see merchandise. I want a good card reader and good zords. Maybe even good figures. I'm sick of figures with fuckin' 10 pack abs. Then again, they aren't made for me.
KRX says
Perhaps they'll integrate Gokaiger in through the second season of Mega Force.
KRX says
However, if this does happen, I'm moving to where you live, 'cause you've got a great set of stars to wish upon.
