Description A revamp of my second Super Sentai team, Machine Sentai Motoranger, a car/racing themed team similar to Carranger and Go-onger.
This is the second of 20 revamps I'm working on (slowly).
A good many of my teams start off as 4 member teams with the fifth ranger being equal to the sixth ranger.
This is a semi-sequal to my previous team, as it is based in the same city.

Are those Power Rangers?

Yeah, sorta.

Power Rangers come from a Japanese series called Super Sentai.

From what I have read,  any European country that had aired Super Sentai, stopped in 1993 to give way to Power Rangers.
I guess Power Rangers are more 'western' than Super Sentai, as until recently, all the teams are made up of Asian actors.
Stan Lee was actually owas the first person who wanted to bring Super Sentai to America, but no one wanted to pick up his idea.

yeah.
The studio that produces Super Sentai actually had a contract with Marvel back in the late 70's.
One of the shows they produced as a result of this deal was Supaidaman, a very Power Ranger-esque version of Spider-Man.

Welcome

It's fun to compare Super Sentai with Power Rangers.
A lots of times the Power Rangers are completely different from the original Super Sentai it is based on.
For example the white ranger suit and Thunder Zords in MMPR SSN 2 are from a totally different team than the 6 other ranger suits and Dino Zords.
They came from a martial arts themed Sentai called Gosei Sentai Dairanger.

The white ranger in Dairanger was just a little kid, something Power Rangers would emulate in PR:Turbo.

This team didn't make its debut in Power Rangers until recently, in the current series Super Mega Force.

Oh, and Yellow Ranger was a girl whereas her counterpart from Super Sentai was male... did I get it right?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Doctor-Why-Designs In reply to MaeraFey [2014-11-23 12:52:59 +0000 UTC]

Yup. that happened pretty much until Super Sentai made a 3 member team with a female blue ranger and a male yellow ranger. After that, they've pretty much kept consistent with the genders. 
Interestingly enough, the series that Saban had planned on adapting before Zyuranger, had a male yellow ranger, but blue and white female rangers.
MMPR was almost bird/jet themed...

Well...they sorta had that in the newest series, Ressha Sentai Toqger, the rangers can actually shift colors fom one to the other.
In Shinkenger/Power Rangers Samurai, they had the first official female red ranger.

Female Red Ranger? Wow! Is she the leader of the team?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Doctor-Why-Designs In reply to MaeraFey [2014-11-28 17:47:04 +0000 UTC]

Yup. 
This is the Power Rangers adaption of the female Red Samurai Ranger.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBx53g…
www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjOeLz…

In both Shinkenger and Power Rangers she's the older sister of the male Red Samurai Ranger, and replaces him for a short while.
As being the oldest sibling in her family, she is the heir to the red ranger powers.

However the Red Samurai is not the first female red ranger seen in a Power Rangers series.
in Power Rangers SPD, the A-Squad team was led by a female red ranger.
The only thing is the SPD A-Squad defected to the bad guys, so they are not as said in this clip, not true power rangers.

Wow, so many Rangers I had no idea there was so many of them. You must really love the franchise.

Yup
Currently there are 38 (soon to be 39) official Super Sentai series and 18 (soon to be 19) official Power Rangers series.

Yeah, I guess you could say that.

That's not even including the unofficial Sentai teams, like Ninja Captor or Hikonon Sentai Akibaranger.

Some are divided over which version of the show is better, the original Japanese. or the American adaption.

Doctor-Why-Designs In reply to MaeraFey [2014-12-14 01:43:00 +0000 UTC]

The real Abaranger was considerably different from Dino Thunder.
Abaranger followed the premise that all of earth's dinosaurs still exist on an alternate earth, and have evolved to sentient levels, while Dino Thunder is played as a semi-sequel to MMPR, and the Dino zords were created by Dr. Tommy Oliver(AKA the former green/white ranger).
The Dino Zords actually talked in Abaranger....

Then I won't mention the striking difference between Go-onger and RPM

Some are very similar to their Japanese counterparts, while others borrow only the ranger suits, the robots, and of course the monsters.

A lot of series had evil duplicates of the rangers...the first Shadow Rangers  appeared in Turbo, the  second group appeared in Wild Force.
