Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger team and toys revealed
As we have known for a while, Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger is going to be the 2014 entry in the long-running Super Sentai series. Wondering what these train-rangers will look like? Look no further.
Thanks to the toy catalog for this series, we get a first look at the toy version of the main mecha will look like. The Tokkyu-Oh is a combination of the five trains.
We also have look at some of the other combinations for the main robot; which are totally unique, because they have other trains smooshed on the sides.
Finally, on the right we have the transformation device for the show, called the TokkyuChanger, which will use tickets for the transformation process.
Ready or not, this is happening. Tokkyuger is set to start airing in February of next year. The train motif for the show was chosen in an attempt to appeal to train enthusiasts, as well as children. I can't imagine any self-respecting train collector wanting to have these mutli-colored things in their collection.
What are everbody's thoughts on the new designs?

Tokkyu-Oh looks like one of those bootleg transforming train-bots.
Yes I totally agree. This team looks so plain and generic looking. Theres nothing to their outfits or anything besides the lame looking tracks across their face. The robot looks very generic and as stated almost bootleg'ish.
Why is everyone out of shape and in ill-fitting costumes? Looks like cosplay.

Just awful. Plain awful. And the costumes look like fetish spandex outfits.
