After months of speculation, at last we have our first glimpse of what the Power Rangers will look like in their upcoming gritty reboot.
Entertainment Weekly broke the news on twitter:

Apparently, Tony Stark designed their super-suits with leftover parts from his Iron Man outfits. Oh, and boob armor.
“Ours is an alien costume that grows on them, that’s not man-made,” production designer Andrew Menzies told Entertainment Weekly in reference to the Rangers look.
It is a very unique update to a dated spandex look, but will moviegoers take to it? If their hatred over anything related to the Ghostbusters reboot is a sign, then the answer is a resounding no.
I am open to the film, though, and hope that once we see some better photos and some footage that we can get on board the hype train and enjoy this new version of the TV classic.
