A recent interview with new Super Sentai chief producer Takahito Ohmori gives us a few early insights into this new team, and the apparent logic behind one noticeable color choice:
…We chose to have more male characters over female characters. Seeing how modern Yellows have been female, we couldn’t have a male Yellow. If the Yellow was a male, the kids would probably think is feminine and we wanted to avoid that.
Members, do we agree with this logic? Will it possibly affect the future storytelling elements in this new series? What are your thoughts?
The S.H.Figuarts Sagittarius Zodairts can now be seen on display at the Tamashi Nations Show Room in Akihabara.

Our good friends over at the Rangercrew blog have uploaded some screenshots of the online Power Rangers Megaforce “Never Surrender” game, which will be playable on the Nick.com website from tomorrow!
In Never Surrender, players help their favorite rangers take on the pesky Loogies and fearsome Warstar Aliens. They can also form their own teams of two by choosing the ranger they wish to play with; from there they’ll battle their way through waves of oncoming enemies in familiar environments from the show. Each ranger has their own specialized combo attacks, augmented attacks and a team up Megaforce attack – along the way, players collect Gosei coins in order to redeem Megaforce Power Cards that grant their rangers enhanced weapon and elemental abilities.As well as a gallery of screenshots from the game (which you can view after the jump), Rangercrew have also uploaded a promotional video which we’ve linked for you below;

You can see two of those exclusive pieces by Doug Williams right here. The first puts the overwhelming scale of the Jaegers into perspective, as a Russian collosus stands guard, dominating the skyline. The second features a freaky Skull Temple that’s fused with its derelict urban surroundings.
