The release of the 42nd Super Sentai Series draws ever closer, and some new magazine scans have been posted online to give us the best look yet at Kaitou Sentai Lupin Ranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger!
Some new details are revealed in these scans-
*The GoodStriker that is central to both teams’ abilities is in fact a sentient device that chooses which team it wants to work with. When used by LupinRed the GoodStriker grants the ability to create clone soldiers. When used by Pat 1, the GoodStriker will fuse all 3 PatRangers to create PatUGo!
*GoodStriker becomes the central torso in both teams’ Mecha combos. As LupinKaizer the LupinRangers can attack with tremendous speed. As PatKaizer, the PatRangers will strike with tremendous force.
*The mysterious Lupin Collection will be central to most fights. Each Treasure has a unique effect, which can be unlocked by the Rangers OR the mysterious Gangler creatures.
*The Ganglers’ foot soldiers are known as Porderman and can hide in human form to hunt for the Treasures.
LupinRanger VS PatRanger is currently scheduled to begin on February 11 2018! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on this exciting new series!
New details-
*The GoodStriker is a sentient device that chooses which team it wants to work with (or which Mecha to form). When used by LupinRed, it creates clones. When used by Pat1, it will fuse all the PatRangers to form "PatUGo."
*Each treasure from the Lupin Collection has a unique effect. Every Gangler carries one, with full powers not yet revealed.
*The enemy soldiers are known as "Podaman"- they and the Gangler can both hide in human forms.
*The LupinRangers' have a day job- working in a French restaurant, the "Bistro Jurer."
Huh... the PatUGo thing is surprising, but kinda cool.
Huh. How odd.
I dig it.
Well, there goes my hopes of the two teams having a giant mech fight. Not unless something from the Lupin Collection can make duplicates
I know they are designing them to look exactly like the toys. But can't they paint the mecha a more realistic color for the show? Shading and silver airbrush go a long way.
While Patran1 just loads his trigger machine in the gun, interesting how Lupin Red has to turn the dial on the dial fighter to 0,1,0 like it is a combination lock before changing. I like it, it is a fun little gimmick and makes sense since he is a thief.
Patran Ugo works surprisingly well design-wise.
Just twigged on to the the dial head on LupinKaizer looking like a tophat.
I appreciate this.
Same on the dial-hat; that's a really neat design thing.
PatUGo is weird, reminds me of Gokai Christmas. Wonder how often they'll actually use it.
While I like both the cloning and combining powers, I think they should've gone to the opposite teams, since it makes more sense for the police force to have larger numbers and the phantom thieves to work alone. Plus the pink/red/green combination doesn't look as good as yellow/red/blue probably would. I do like PatUGo's design aside from the colors though.
So this is how Genpachiro Otta got promoted to Lt. of the First Division
