Previously, I wrote about the T-Rex Battle Zord and approach taken with the Power Rangers movie merchandises. Today I will be talking about the one thing I'm not happy about the movie: the robot designs.

The mecha design was revealed in their toy version online a little before the T-Rex was released in stores. Along with it, fans got to see the mastodon, triceratops, saber-toothed tiger, and pterodactyl. I definitely dig the design because it is Transformers-like and they actually look like real-life machines.

The toys already give a good amount of details of the robots, but the poster that was exclusively shown on Comic Book two days ago show greater details. The poster features the zords covered in mists and rushing forward, with the Saber-Toothed Tiger in the front and most explicitly shown. The curvy parts and blue glows add a nice futuristic look to the refined tiger from the '90s show. I personally have a thing for glows, so it gives me the badass fierce chills.
But what I don't like are the mastodon and tricera. I mean, just look at them!

If I remember correctly, both animals only have four legs. So what's wrong with them? Are they supposed to be some sort of mixture of a spider and mastodon, and another composed of a beetle and a tricera? Honestly, it makes them look a bit ugly.
Nonetheless, the zords have a unique design approach aimed at an older audience. They look like they are actually made of metal and strong enough by themselves without even combining. And one simple design preference should not be a factor to not look forward to the upcoming movie.
So that concludes my article entries for this blog. This and the previous articles were short but were something I really wanted to talk about.
This class gave me the opportunity to write a blog for a class, which was awesome for me because I had been barely writing my actual blog because of school. Under a topic that I have passion for, it allowed me to further improve my organizational skill and new writing skills I learned from Writing for Mass Media.
I guess that's all there is for me to say.
Good bye!
