After the confirmation of the Megaranger and Timeranger tributes, it is official. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs. Gavan is officially confirmed! This epic crossover will premiere this January 21st.
Based on the previous rumors we had, Kenji Ohba will guest star as Retsu Ichijouji aka Gavan, Shiro Akebono aka Battle Kenya and Daigorou Oume aka DenziBlue. It is also rumored that the 36th Super Sentai team, Tokumei Sentai Gobuster will make a cameo. The only thing confirmed as of the moment is the title and the registration of the official website for the movie.
Earlier this month, Kamen Rider producer, Shinichirô Shirakura (Kamen Rider Kabuto, Kamen Rider Decade) was asked by a fan on Twitter if there would be a Metal Hero 30th Anniversary movie in which he replied in English, "That's a good question." Giving us a clue that he might be involved in this movie. Will this signal the revival of this classic tokusatsu franchise?
UPDATE: According to dukemon22, he got an info that Bandai will release Space Sheriff Gavan's Dolgiran into a GokaiMachine —GokaiMachine Series EX DolGiran.
I think many of us here didn't see this coming! Rumor has it that this year's Super Sentai VS movie will feature the first Metal Hero, Space Sheriff Gavan. It will be entitled “Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger VS Gavan.”
According to rumors, Kenji Ohba will guest star as Retsu Ichijouji aka Gavan, Shiro Akebono aka Battle Kenya and Daigorou Oume aka DenjiBlue. Moreover, based on the pamphlet for the 199 movie, Gavan and DekaMaster are close friends. Could this be TOEI's celebration for the 30th Anniversary of Metal Heroes?
