Fake Spoilers Thread

A few more I recall for Sentai:

Shinkenger was rumoured to be a family team with the mother as Pink

Go-onger having one Sixth who would switch between silver and gold forms

Early Gokaiger rumours involved the Gokaigers going to "islands" based around past Sentai series, and Green and Pink not joining the team until episode 3-4 when Pink would be kidnapped for ransom

Several rumours came up about ToQger having an emergency rescue (or trains + emergency rescue) theme. People seemed convinced that the show would do a GoGoV homage, I don't know why. It wasn't even the anniversary of GoGoV ...

Regarding Go-onger, it's interesting that it happened in Gokaiger few years later, when Gai used Gold and Silver to become Gold Silver Hybrid. lol :laugh:

I liked the "island" idea and personally I think it would have made much better than what we got.
Pink getting kidnapped would have been interesting though; not that I'm a fan or don't care too much about Ahim.

About the ToQger rumor as rescue theme, 2014 would have been 15th anniversary of GoGoV (1999), so it would have made sense if they went with that route. While I did enjoy ToQger (where most people didn't; I'm in minority once again. woo-hoo), we really need another rescue theme for sentai.
IIRC, there was another rumor that before title was announced, it was going to be battleship; which would have been REALLY interesting.

I do remember it leaked early that the belt included a knife cutting the fruit. Maybe it was something to do with that?

Maybe someone saw the blade part of Sengoku Driver and immediately thought that was the collectibles.

There was also a rumor that Gaim would ride a horse-themed bike, likely stemming from the fact that he's themed after a Japanese soldier and one of his first scenes involve him on an actual horse. Perhaps someone accidentally saw the shooting for that scene?

(funnily enough, a few years later we got Ghost riding a horse-themed bike.....)

There was a rumour two years ago about a Kamen Rider who was a ghost (although the series was reported to be themed around music/break-dancing) and that he'd be played by Ryosuke Yamamoto. Well, now we have a ghost Rider and Yamamoto is the secondary Rider ...

Regarding Go-onger, it's interesting that it happened in Gokaiger few years later, when Gai used Gold and Silver to become Gold Silver Hybrid. lol :laugh:

Yeah, I wonder if they planned to do that in Go-onger but then decided to change it?
