^Actually dude, from years past, the new season info usually comes about even before the Summer, usually around between Febuary and March. There was once or twice where it was announced in late January too. The Summer time is when we usually seen some Sentai footage of the Sentai season being adapted and Power Morphicon being when they announce the new cast. Just go back and look up past articles of a new season announced and you'll see that it usually comes between late January and mid March. Oh right, forgot lol We are not that far away then to find out the name of the new series.

We still use freight trains, subways and tram systems for passengers. I know trams are technically different than trains, but Power Rangers has "moved the goalposts" on things like this before, so I really don't see the problem there.
They take the backseat for sure, but trains are still up there with dinosaurs in popularity.

Yes trains are still used here in us. But they are not that big and popular like in Japan and what not. And come on when we have way better gimmicks to play with and better footage trains really wouldn't cut it for hasbro. Hasbro likely wants to use a good gimmick and look what sells space, ninjas, and dinosaurs have always been good sells. You could also get some good stuff out of lupin pat too with having 2 ranger teams and bad guys. I still bet they will likely adapt kyu, lupin, and Ryu series as next few.
I still really want to see kyu. As we get a bunch if rangers there. More toys for hasbro to release. Plus the whole space angle. We haven't had that in so long. It be fun to have a face based theme season again.
Then lupin pat would be a fun angle go play with robber rangers vs cop rangers and the bad guys. And having 2 team season. We haven't had that either in ages.

I still think we can't really say what Hasbro is thinking after they went back and adapted Go-Busters. We don't have insider info, we're just guessing. If they want to make trains work, they can. Just like how Go-Busters didn't work for Bandai, but Hasbro found a way to make it work for them. ToQger is just as possible as the rest of them.
That being said, I think it's safe to say Ryusoulger is next because dinosaurs are popular and they probably wanna jump on that as soon as possible.

Oh sure they could do something with trains. I just feel with space, cops/thief, dinos, animals there is way better choices then straight up trains. I wouldn't mind if we did do dinos next. I just think it be waste to do it next. Save it for the following series. So then you could play up 30th anniversary of power rangers. Get some nice ties to mm, dt, dc. Plus with us getting Jason and dc guys in season 2 of beast. Just feels to soon to go right back to dinos.

Too me personally, I rather wait too for them to adapt Ryu until it gets to the 30th anniversary as well. And I would very much like to see ToQger get an adaptation. I mean, we were thrown a curve ball when they decided to go backwards and adapt Go-Busters when we all had thought they would be adapting Kyu after Super Ninja Steel.

I hope the rumor is not true. Too soon. Besides there are two good series with two good gimmicks over there: Kyuranger and LuPat. My vote is for LuPat, because is different, and a good "thieves vs cops" could be cool, but I'm OK with Kyuranger. Kyuranger has beautiful designs, and a good number of Rangers. About TQGer....That train just passed....a long time ago. I'm more curious about ZyuOhger.

About TQGer....That train just passed....a long time ago. I'm more curious about ZyuOhger. Well, the problem with adapting Zyuohger into Power Rangers is that well, you look at the cube animal mechs and you might get the impression that Hasbro is trying to make Minecraft into a thing despite the fact that Minecraft is no longer popular anymore not since 2010 ended. Aesthetic-wise, the suits may actually feel a bit too generic to look at, or the western audience might think that suits look more pajamas with animal faces and then you have the whole "Zyuman" forms for blue, yellow, white and green. Unless, they are willing to split the Zyuman forms from the human forms of said rangers and make them their own characters. But, the biggest question is what are the rangers going to be doing in their spare time and where is their command center gonna be located at? Inside an animal zoo?! The villains, you won't have much a problem with, but for Naria's character...she needs to be more active, and not just make monsters grow. And, I would suggest that they give her an actual human disguise in the show. Story-wise, you can do whatever you want. Now for Kyuuranger being adapted into Power Rangers, yeah you can definitely reshoot some footage with a lot of U.S. exclusive footage where the rangers are actually in space and are exploring other planets and and then build up the final arc taking place on Earth. But with Lupinranger vs. Patoranger, I think the western audience is going to be confused with the ideas of police Power Rangers fighting magician Power Rangers unless Hasbro actually explains the ideas of a group of mysterious hooded/cloaked cat burglars to the audience. Otherwise, it will be the Neo-Saban era TV seasons where random stuff is happening because that's what the sentai footage says.

To be honest they should save Ryusoulger as the 30th season to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Power Rangers.

Otherwise, it will be the Neo-Saban era TV seasons where random stuff is happening because that's what the sentai footage says. You know, this is Power Rangers. They don't have to adapt every thing exactly like the Sentai. Like the Ninja Steel team hang out in a room in the high school, and in a junkyard, while the Ninningers were in a Japanese house with traps and secret passages. Or the Dino Charge group, working in the museum's bar, while having a secret HQ under the museum, instead of a secret temple with a mentor who was an ancient prehistoric bird. They can change things. It's not that hard. In my rank, I would say, first LuPat, second Kyu, and then ZyuOhger in order of favoritism. I really don't believe TQGer could be adapted. If you believe ZyuOh suits are generic, I consider TQGer the blandest and most generic ones, even with the change of colors between the members of the team. But if they adapt it, well, I have to watch it, because I'm intrigued how they can do it. Minecraft is still a thing. I saw YouTubers still playing it yet. Heck, Pewdiepie, the most famous YouTuber still played it like two months ago. It's probably not relevant as a couple of years ago, but it's still a thing. So, I don't discard ZyuOhger only in "how trendy is Minecraft". Several mechas are OK. And playability are cool, so kids could care. As for Kyuranger, it's not that hard to look around in New Zealand to film in places that look like an alien planet. Add a filter to change the palette, like having a red sun (I remember RPM using some filter to make look like an post Apocaliptic earth),and voilá, alien planet. If some amateur filmakers making movies in YouTube can do it, Power Rangers can do it too. Heck, Chip Lynn and co. made a Sentai based in videogames into a search through different planets, and I don't think they had more budget in that time than now. Or technology. A Kyuranger adaptation could use some Star Wars influence (more the original trilogy, than the sequels), and work in the aspect of "evil conquered the galaxy, and Rangers are the Rebellion". LuPat could be more interesting, because the Versus thing. I have to say, they have to work a little, but if you have a good reason to the thieves to do the robbery, it could work. I remember my criticism with the Lupin Collection in LuPat when I watched it: why the LupinRangers have to collect them? To resurrect their loved ones? But Zamigo, the one responsable for "killing" the loved ones, if the LupinRangers destroy him, they can bring the people back? LuPat could work like that: Zamigo killed ("Frozen and clashed") the loved ones of the LupinRangers (a brother, a fiancee, a BFF), then somebody approached the LupinRangers to collect the entire LupinCollection. This collection of objects gives powers to its users (monsters of the week), individually, But togheter can give an impossible wish. Voilá. They are like Dragon Balls. But they can't do it in "legal" way. So cops are looking for them. There, a motivation. It's not that hard.

ya i still dont see why folks feel cops vs robbers thing wouldnt work. We have seen it done in many ways in media ie like robin hood. You just make it clear they are not evil rangers doing things just to be bad. They are doing it for some reason and just think the cop rangers cant do it cause they are by the book and the thief rangers think they can do things better there way. Then you work in angle they have to work together in the end to defeat the true bad guys and there you go.

I still don't see why folks feel that the "cops vs robbers" thing wouldnt work. We have seen it done in many ways in media, i.e. Robin Hood.

Then you work in an angle to have them working together in the end to defeat the true bad guys and there you go. Well, if the goal is to have the thief rangers do all the things that the police rangers can't do because they live by the book, then I guess the writers should have to make the whole "Rangers vs. Rangers" dynamic feel more like Lethal Weapon 1 where you have one team that's all lace-up and go by the rules of the book and the other team who is just bending the rules in order to get the job done. Or, they could just make it like the whole "Jack and Sky" dynamic from SPD where they both have their on ways of defeating the enemies, but they can still have mutual respect for one another based on how they fight.
