As I said on Lah!, they look more like the Sportrangers or the characters from Erexion, almost... must be the materials they're using on the suits.

I rather dislike the Elephant mech, but the big-cat mechs could be cool.

Are the yellow and blue ones little kids or midgets or something?

Nothing so far other than toy pics for the mecha. I to want to see pics of the villians. Of course, the villians of Boukenger looked cool to, but that show got lame within 3 episodes so I gave up at ep 8.

I think it just depends on your own opinion, really. Some people seem to really like it over on Lah!, and are still following it.

Personally, I've only seen episode 2, but it was pretty fun. Not nearly as amazingly fun as episode 1 of GoRanger, though! :D

EDIT: And yeah, a lot of the girls are played by guys in the suits. Hope therapy works out for ya! :lol:

Just saw the first episode and it was really fun. Looks like it might be a sentai series I can actually get into.

Don't get me wrong, I find Sentai to be great in small doses but none of them really had anything to keep me hooked. This is the first series I've seen since watching the first episode of GoRanger that I enjoyed this much.

EDIT: Also, GekiYellow and Mele the Chameleon girl are friggin' hot. :o

EDIT II: Also, if one of the GekiBeasts ends up being a Penguin (one is shown alongside an elephant, Gorilla and a Caribou[?]), then this show will officially own. :lol:

I hope the Five Deadly Venoms last for more than one or two episodes... they look friggin' awesome as hell! (What worries me is , which could imply their *not* lasting very long... :?)

*still holding out for GekiPenguin....*

EDIT: Oh yeah, and episode 2 was closer to standard sentai fare but it still struck me as being more fun than a lot of other sentai stuff I've watched. I'm still hooked for the time being. :)
