We don't ever see つづく (tsuzuku, or "to be continued") at the end of each episode anymore. Instead, we get this message to prepare for a sing-along after the commercial break.

Also, Gokaiger did away with eyecatches and in-between narrations. Does that mean they're gone for good?

you forgot non-henshin fights between the heroes and the foot soldiers. I really enjoy seeing the actors/actresses showing off some moves. :thumbs: I won't count Shinkenger and Gokaiger because they still depend on their ShinkenMaru, Gokai Gun and Gokai Saber.

EDIT: Go-onger had the Mantan Gun, which also had Rod Mode.

Bah! That doesn't count. Whenever an old-schooler like myself is whining about the lack of human/actor villains, we don't count the token idol or the one man renegade. We're thinking of...

Sentai villain groups nowadays are the complete opposite of this -- one human, and the rest rubber villains.

Other stuff not being used in Super Sentai anymore:

Perforated Helmets - Replaced by clear visors starting with Denshi Sentai Denjiman (1980)
Scarves - Discontinued after Dai Sentai Goggle-V (1982)

Isn't Gokai Galleon kind of like a flying fortress? It combines into a giant robot, but it's also their usual hang out and base of operations. Or am I totally missing the point?
