Theory: Why Power Rangers 2021 Skipped To Dinosaurs

Mar 26, 2020

Now that the OMG buzz is settling down let’s take a deep dive and consider why Hasbro has skipped several other seasons of Super Sentai to the last complete Power Ranger series.

Where is Hasbro going with Power Rangers ?

We already know that Hasbro (even Saban) has no problem cherry-picking what season to adapt. Since Power Rangers debuted on Nickelodeon the format went from a one-season Super Sentai series per year to two smaller seasons over two years, still using only one series of Super Sentai footage. Giving Japan time to create more content lets review and speculate why four seasons are staying across the Pacific.

The Train Season

The obvious reason that Ressha Sentai ToQger didn’t make it over, America does not have a prominent train culture. Just compare the pictures below.

The toy sales will be through the roof! They don’t need to add in any extra American made toys or items to the show it should be a money-printing machine!

What do you think, Power Rangers fans? We want to know!

Let us know in the comments below if you think Hasbro did the smart thing and jumped straight to Ryusoulger? or join in the discussion on our Facebook and stay tuned to ThatHashtagshow for everything trending in geek pop culture!

I would like Zyuohger to be adapted. I think there needs to be more white rangers. And hopefully Hasbro will find the best storyline to put in.

I want Zyuohger to be adapted next. I truly and personally think there should be more (WHITE) rangers. And I’m certain enough that Hasbro will come up with the best storyline to put in.

I think if Hasbro can knock Dino Fury out of the park then they can get ambitious and attempt Kyuranger next or if not Kyuranger Zyuohger or Kiramager. Unfortunately, I hate to say that as much as I loved Toqger it’s theming doesn’t lend itself well to American audiences. Lupin vs. Pato could be done but you’d need one hell of a new story line reworked for it land well.
