I have the Basic Rules made, what i essentially need is to understand, and get suggestions on what I should add to really make it like the Sentai Series ....... Some big exceptions, though: To make it easier to handle, I'll avoid avoid extreme powerplays, like Giant Robot Mecha, Extreme Great leaps, and the worst super-Ultra-Mega-Power Blasts .....
I guess You understand my point .... ninja
Below is an attempt to describe a storyline wich Could arise within the game, and also a try to show some of the diversity it is supposed to have .... EDIT: By the way, I have decided to call the Game "Zentai Dolls" for a couple of reasons. Also, if or when others shows interest in this, this post, and the one below this, may be further edited, to include info, suggestions ..... and so on .... like a link to the basic rules, perhaps.

Zentai Dolls Happenings .... Suzy walks along the street, when suddenly a small aircraft flies over her head. It drops a lot of ..... something. Those "somethings" lands, they are a kind of "Robot-dogs". They attack everyone nearby. She is able to fight off a few, but can't damage them. Then she hears: "Special Police M-Colt!" She has heard of him, thinking he is the most of the most handsome ones in the city's Special Police ...... especially in that special outfit..... She thinks he may need some help, and opens the medallion she wears around her neck, thereby calling on her "Mecha Pet", a cat-looking robot, in the size of a big dog.
While she waits, and defends against some of the attacking Mecha-dogs, she hears Colt shouting: "Evacuate, please, all civilians. My Teammembers is taking care of similar attacks around the city, so please evacuate!"
On the roof of a small building nearby, Lahti Rovini, a newly graduated Neo-Shinobi, hears it as well, and decides to join the fray, so Colt might be able to help his Teammates sooner. Lahti moves around his arms, ending with pulling his hands together in a Shinobi hand-sign, and in a burst of smoke, his regular clothes is replaced by his Neo-Ninja Garb.
Suzy's Mecha-Cat has reached her, so she shouts: "Mecha FUSION!" And in a few seconds, the Mecha-Cat changes into a mecha-Armor, that covers Suzy entirely. _________________________
A few minutes later, all the nearby mecha-dogs are trashed, littering the street. But then, the small aircraft flies by again, lands, and turns into an armored war-tank ......_______________________________________________ So, what do You think/ any suggestions?

First of all, I would call the mecha pet sounds like the size of a panther. So maybe she could call it panther armor. Another thing is, do they all know each other or are they all complete strangers?

..... Interesting idea ...... but i think more of comparative size: The "cat" it smaller than a panther, but clearly bigger than a housecat. It's entitire body turns into her armor suit, and a full-size panther might easily get too bulky for what i had thought.
The ones in the description is essentially strangers, but Colt is well-known, and similar to, for instance, Decaranger Blue, he is a part of a team, but these are currently elsewhere, as is described. As with most Table-top Rpg's, the players can choose if their characters are supposed to know each others to begin with, or not, unless the GamesMaster decides something else.

Hmm interesting idea. As for the partners, when you mentioned they were smaller than the person..well the image of saint seiya came to mine. sure when the armor is out of the box in its constelation form it looks smaller but it can cover the entire body once worn so i see that can work nicely.
Now may i ask...what other kinds of characters are you going to use?

Um, first, i want to make certain that it is clear that the Game i am making, or trying to make, is intended to be like, Dungeouns & Dragons, or, more like, White wolf's Storytelling Games. I'm not sure if that if i had explained that well enough ......
Saint Seiya?
And yes, i think You've understood the idea with the armor. Ok, some Armors may have a different ... size ... than the companion, but those requires .... special explanations, so to speak. As an example: Transformers, in reality, would have to be far more hollow as robots than they are normally shown as. ... Either that, or they would be impossible to take passengers.
The idea with Zentai Dolls, is that the player should be able to choose virtually any type of character within sentai, within the limitations i have already mentioned. This includes the different types of Kamen Rider ..... or at least several (just saw up to episode 20 of Decade ..... , then the subbed became removed ......), as well as different variations of "power Rangers" (Tokusen Sentai?).
Also non-henshin (i like that word now ..... ) & Anime may fit, like variants of Hardsuits(Bubblegum Crisis), and even some "magical Girls" that uses fully-covering outfits.
Did this answer Your question?

Seems i completely forgot, for some unknown reason:
I really like Furries to begin with, and in Dekaranger, even their Boss, Doggie Kreuger, is a really good-looking furry!
So, a Zentai Doll Character do not have to be a human!
But now, it seems like i have to revise the answer in my last post some, to avoid that it becomes too much for the Basic Game: In a way, one get back to the original question: What should i include/focus on, what is most important?
* Special Combat moves? * Special Powers (like fireblast or electric stun) ?` * Animal abilities (not just for furries, but for any "animalstyled" ) ? * Special Armor(in addition to the regular spandex ... looking) ? * Heavy Special Armor (Bubblegum Crisis Hardsuits) ?
..... For instance.
