Combining Mecha: Difference between revisions

** [[Mecha Expansion Pack]]? More and more recent series have "auxiliary Zords" that can replace limbs to add new powers. Every year starting around 2000, [[Super Sentai|both]] [[Power Rangers|shows]] tend to feature a wide range of individual animals or vehicles who would start doing this with the base combined mecha. At times like this, instead of "'''''GATTAI!'''''" (combination), get used to "'''''BUSOU!'''''" (armament.) Once they acquire enough of these, they usually end up combining together to form a second complete mecha (such as DaiTenkuu in ''[[Samurai Sentai Shinkenger]]'') or the Dual Drive Megazord of ''[[Power Rangers Operation Overdrive]]'' (presented as a 'quick and dirty' emergency combination of the spare vehicles once too many of the usual vehicles had been damaged.) Sometimes they ''all'' pile onto the main mecha at once. Also, some [[Sixth Ranger]] mecha do this with the combined robot of the other Rangers.

*** Parodied in ''[[Samurai Sentai Shinkenger]]'' when the Origami, in their emblem forms, attempt to "combine" by stacking one on top of the other. The formation isn't very effective.
