Liking these designs….nooooot liking the final price.

They remind me of something out of a Brave series, and I would like to find out more about these dudes…oh well, they'll be a possible TFCon purchase if nothing else.

Seems Takara is jumping into the "Power Rangers" band wagon.

I'm not understanding what you're alluding to when you say Power Rangers. These guy change into 3 different robots and combine into 3 different robos. Wasn't Power Rangers only 1?
Maybe you mean Getter Robo. Takara is using some Getter Robo ideas as opposed to PRangers.

I'm talking about the combination look and style, 3 primary colored machines each tasked a body part. Take out the indivitual robot forms and they are literally Power Rangers. To be honest I don't know much about Japanese robot culture.

To me, the aesthetic is closer to Brave or Gundam.

They definitely have a very Brave-like design. The bright colors, big beefy arms and legs, the HUGE forehead crests.

Gundam, not so much.

I can see why some would say there's a Sentai-feel to it; the large blocks of mis-matching primary colors is probably the biggest contributor to that perspective. However, that's more or less it; design-wise, there's very little resemblance, if any at all, to Sentai mechs.

Looks like Transformers Energon all over again.

Re: Transformers Go! combiners
 
Yeah I can see all these design elements in these.
( Power Ranger, Gundam, TF Energon the way they combine if they stack combine. Not familiar with Brave, Sorry

Would like to see better pics and info first, this would stop me from buying them or pre-ordering.

I know they like to tease with leaked shots, but only before pre-order please.
