So in light of the news that Saban is making a new Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie francise.

Do you think they should stick with the original suit. Update it or go for a completely new style?

Post pictures if you can find something you like on the internet. I'm voting for a new suit.
 
depends on their audience they are targeting for, and budget.

i'd love for them to get legacy effects to design suits that are an evolution of the old movie's, but more streamlined.

something like the new robocop or the pacific rim suits + old helmets.

I'm loving this design, kinda remind of Arbiter from Halo. But it look mysterious, and actually look like a battle suit instead of cheap costume.

Don't even get me started on how the gold is throughout his body instead of just the chest piece.

Dude, there are new suits every series. No need to go retro, they can mix and match from 20 years of Power Ranger history.

Looks more like the Guyver armor, which in my opinion, should be more of how the overall look of the Power Rangers should go with rather than the skin tight uniforms.
 
Wait, wait, wait.... the new Power Rangers movie will be about the BEST POWER RANGERS EVER "MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS" ??!!!

HOLY FUCK, now i'm so in.

I forgot about Guyver. But yeah. Its a battle suit, if a cosplayer can make a power rangers suit and it actually look legit, then you're doing something wrong.

Gotta have some pads. The 1995 movie suit was pretty good.
 
Seeing as the Super Sentai series that it's based off has new outfits every year... why?

Because Americans are insanely nostalgic for the MMPR costumes.
A lot of it is probably due to spending 3 years with them, as opposed to the once-a-year style Super Sentai uses. Thankfully, they stopped using the MMPR costumes when Zeo rolled around.
 
How come people don't like Zeo? I liked Zeo.

My best friend love Zeo a lot so don't worry. You're not the only one.


I know this is unrealistic. But I like this design too. Give everyone a sense of individuality. Maybe it could be an upgrade power mode.

Or if they wanted to do a MMPR cartoon show.

i like this
 
I feel like they should look more "armor"y. It never made sense that they put on those spandex suits and were suddenly able to take so many crazy hits. The movie tried to solve for this which I appreciated.

Even as a kid I questioned that shit.


Hmm yes, this is delicious.

Did Rob Liefeld design these?
 
Probably going to redesign them. The original suits are actually really good, but probably not gonna fly in a big Hollywood production in 201X.

Does the word "morphin" bother anyone else?

Outside of the battle cry ("It's Morphin Time!"), yes. That word actually does bother me.
 
It blew my mind when the first movie gave them actual armor instead of velcro spandex and Pay Less boots.

I say go for broke and get the who designed Gears of War on it.

Giant 300 pound uniforms.

Hulking weapons of mass destruction looking Zords.

All bright neon Primary colors.

I like these, though not quite the action poses of the Pink and Yellow Rangers, but the design idea for the first quote, and the size difference between Rangers on the second.

Yeah the poses are ridiculous, but the design are pretty sweet. White ranger chest piece and helmet are just amazing.

I love that first pic. I could see the other rangers being the same with white lining instead of gold. Maybe subtle differences between the armors.
 
It always bugged me how the holster are always flapping around when they fight. It need another belt to secure it properly.

Wow, that's sweet.
 
I'd like to see the Power Rangers ip get a bigger budget. I haven't watched it in quite some time, but I always remember it for its laughable budget and special of effects. Has it got any better today? I'm going to say no.
