One Color Changes in Gokaiger


 First 5 Red Change in Goseiger vs. Shinkenger and Episode 40
Goukai Yellow became Geki Red, Goukai Blue became Bouken Red, Goukai Red became Go-On Red, Goukai Green became Deka Red and Goukai Pink became Magi Red.

Second 5 Red Change in Episode 2
GokaiYellow became Geki Red in Goseiger vs. Shinkenger and GokaiPink became Geki Red. GokaiPink became MagiRed in the teamup movie and GokaiYellow became MagiRed in 2nd episode.

 6 Red Change in Gokaiger vs. Gavan
Silver becomes TimeFire, Yellow becomes MagiRed, Green becomes OhRed, Red becomes Akaranger, Blue becomes Red Racer and Pink becomes Princess Shinken Red

5 Red Change in Stageshow #1
In a stageshow early when Gokaiger started and a couple other stageshows. Gokai Yellow as Deka Red, no skirt of course and Gokai Pink as Shinken Red.

5 Red Change in Stageshow #2
Gokai Red as ChangeDragon, Green is MagiRed, Blue is GingaRed, Yellow is Shinken Red and Pink is DekaRed.

5 Red Change in Stageshow #3
In another stage show, it was around June 25th (I found it on someone's Blog in Japanese), Gokai Yellow becomes Shinken Red and Gokai Pink becomes Go-On Red. I am guessing Green is Geki Red and Blue is Gosei Red.

Three Black Change in Episode 3
GokaiPink became Go-On Black,  GokaiYellow became Ninja Black and Blue became Abareblack.

 Three White Change in Episode 3
Blue was Big One, Yellow was GaoWhite and Pink was WhiteSwan.

 6 Silver Change in Episode 18
In Episode 18, Pink becomes Go-On Silver, Green became GaoSilver, GokaiSilver, Red became BoukenSilver (first time he became a non-Red), Blue became GoseiKnight (which is considered Silver by Toei), and Yellow became MegaSilver.

6 Green Change in Episode 43
 In Episode 43, they make an all-green change. Ahim becomes Green Flash, Gai became Shurikenger, Don became MidoRanger, Marvelous become DenjiGreen, Joe became ShinkenGreen, Luka becomes Shishi Ranger, with a skirt

6 Yellow Change in Episode 44
Pink became GoseiYellow, Green became HurricaneYellow, Silver became KirinRanger, Yellow became BoukenYellow, Red became GaoYellow and Blue became Tiger Ranger.

6 Blue Change in Episode 45
Pink becomes MagiBlue, Yellow becomes Blue Dolphin, Blue becomes ShinkenBlue, Red becomes GoseiBlue, Silver becomes AoRanger, and Green becomes TimeBlue.

6 Pink Change in Gokaiger Vs Gavan
 In Gokaiger vs. Gavan, we don't know who is everyone because the movie hasn't premiered yet. GokaiYellow becomes Bouken Pink and GokaiPink is Mega Pink and I think Gokai Red is Pteraranger. Lots of people have been waiting for this and thought maybe it was not going to happen because modern social convention in US and Japan (and many other countries), pink is thought of being a girl's color (which I think is silly). Other people still think it is wrong. 

6 White Change in Gokaiger Vs Gavan
In Gokaiger vs. Gavan, Gokai Yellow as Gao White, Gokai Pink as Geki Chopper and I think that Gokai Silver is Kibaranger, Gokai Red is Big One, Gokai Blue is Deka Break and Gokai Green is AbareKiller, not sure.

All they are missing is an 6 Black change and an All-Gold change (like 4).

The highest for Marvelous/Gokai Red is MagiShine at 63 votes but the highest for Joe was also MagiShine at 56 votes. This frustrates me. Since the first poll, the boys were picked, I had to use Red and Blue, but it was almost tied with Go-On Gold and MagiShine so I picked Go-On Gold as it was the second highest. Don's highest was Zuuban and Gai's highest was Shinken Gold. As for Luka, her highest was Zuuban and Ahim's was Go-On Gold.

Dragonzord: REAL or FAKE!?

 Henshin0:
I've Written a post recently on thing to look foward to, some confirmed and some unconfirmed. One particular item on that list has raised controversy on the comment wall and may have even damaged the ethos of this blog. I am, of course, talking about the MMPR-R Dragonzord. First, I'd like to repeat that not everything on my list is confirmed. Second the reason I believe in this, than not are for the following reasons: there are products that were sold in America, but not in England. There are products that are sold in England that aren't in America (for example some retrofires that weren't sold here until recently). Third, Rita is an MMPR-R figure but packaged as samurai anyways, so this could be too. Like I said before, that the figure was on my friend's shelf (which was the point that most people believe is the anti-ethos), but here is the photo below.
The point of this post is not to prove or disprove if this toy exists, but just for you to see the photo, and decide for yourself if this is fake or real. If you believe this is real, then you have something to look foward to. If you believe this is fake, then go ahead and disbelieve this, but at least give my friend props for doing such a good job photoshopping, because this looks too real to be fake (like a photo of Aziz Ansari with Kanye West and Jay-Z).
Again, as of yet, we of Henshin Grid cannot confirm if this is real or fake until we get further proof of one way or the other, but in the mean time, feel free to write a comment on if you believe if this is real or fake, and why. Just remember, when commenting or replying to anything us writers or even your fellow readers say, be polite and choose your words carefully because we all have feelings, and different conotations make the difference between criticism and insults.

Henshin0's Megamax Predictions-Updated

During the summer, after my trip to Israel, I wrote a post and part of it was a list of predictions I had about what's to come for the kamen rider movies. For those who don't remember or didn't read it, here's the list again (note this is prior to the release of "wonderful 21 medals":
>Before fighting the main villain in OOO movie, OOO will face a lesser
movie villain, but will be interrupted by a brief arrival of 4's, who
will also defeat that lesser villain.
>Given the previous titles given to year-end team ups (war
and core), the movie will likely be called 2012 Soar (because it rhymes with the
above and it's appropriate for 4's motif.
>The OOO side will feature a new combo and/or new
form for birth and/or new rider (most likely options 1 and 3)
>The 4's side will feature a mid form (like fang-joker and
tajadol)
>Either during the 4's side or in the Soar-cross, the
second rider will be revealed (like accel and birth)
>Next spring, there might be another den-o film that may
include 4's (and if it does, it might take place in space)
Now, here's the update, on my predictions so far. The first one was not only true, but highly anticipated even though many fans don't really like fourze. The second one, sadly, wasn't true. Instead of being called "soar", it was called "megamax", which doesn't sound as cool in my opinion (in fact, I almost think "miramax"). #3 of prediction 3 was correct with not one, but two riders (even though they are the good and evil versions of the same person). #1 did come true, but in the Megamax-cross, rather than the OOO arc. Since we are talking about arcs, I should mention they really sucker-punched me be also having w and showa arcs. Fourze gets Double Rocket states. I said he will get a mid form on either his or cross arcs, but sadly, I have not seen the movie. I don't know at what point he uses it, but he definately uses it on one of those two arcs. The real question is, is it a mid form, side mid form, or sub mid form? For those of you who are confused about the terms "mid", "side", or "sub", don't worry, I'm planning on writing a post on rider forms, and my terminology for them. But I do know that swtches 30 and 31 form magnet states, which I think will be mid form. If it turns out that it is final form, then yeah, Double Rocket will be Mid form. The end credits do count as part of cross arc, so I was right about Meteor (second rider) being in the cross arc.
Ok, let's tally up: out of 5 (not counting the den-O prediction), where correct is +1, partially correct is +0.5, maybe or so-so is 0, and wrong is -1, I got 2.5/5, the maybe or so-so being the validity of dbl-rocket being a mid form. That makes the difference between 1.5/5, and 3.5/5. I kinda hope I'm wrong because I just don't like the idea of it being the mid form. I prefer it being sub mid, and magnet being mid.
As for the cross with den-o, there hasn't been an anouncement for it being made, but if they insist on making a new movie every year, They are missing a big oppertunity if denliner with the KR club aren't going to space on 1961 with Gagarin or doing a lunar landing with Armstrong in 1969. Gentaro and Yuki dreamed of being astronauts, and this is a chance for them to live that dream. I prefer a cameo from Gagarin over Armstrong because everyone (and sorry for the fallacy of generalization) knows Armstrong was the first man to step foot on the moon, but very few people (again, sorry for generalizing) know anything about Yuri Gagarin, who was the first man in space, and after whom Fourze is comemorated the 50th anivarsery of. He was a cool guy, both in the heavens and on the earth, and it would be cool for more people to know about him. Besides, there may be a possibility that if he didn't make that first flight, Armstrong wouldn't have made his landing (again, POSSIBLY). And let's face it, DEN-LINER IN SPACE!!!!!!!
