Hero Time! The Land
Welcome, dear visitor, to a world consisting entirely of plastic-looking city sets. My, don't they look ready to blast apart at a moment''s notice? It's almost as if an attack is expected in this sector.
But not to worry! The 'attacks' here are just goofy entertainment. Lovably laughable employees in dull green suits may make menacing gestures at times, but they're just a nuisance. The visitors to this section are protected by the Masked Rangers, the people in heavy helmets and spandex suits you might see from time to time. The acrobat-types, the ones in the flimsy suits, perform tricky stunts and wave 'blasters' that shoot a cheap spark effect from time to time. Driver-types wear heavier armor and traverse this section of the park in their specialized motorcycles, zipping down specialized roadways seemingly from nowhere.
Other than that, the environment is fairly industrial. The main attractions are in the 'abandoned warehouse district'. It features greasy food (and surprisingly good smoothies, strangely enough), alarm bells every now and then, and the crowning ride of this sector: an exciting cart ride through the warehouses that culminates in riding atop a giant mecha. The vibrations as the mech carrying the vehicle shoots its lasers are quite unsettling the first time or two, and riding through the smoke cloud of a post-henshin explosion can cause mild fits of coughing. This adventure is not for the faint of heart.
Simpler shows are done in the park-like area, where a few of the more acrobatic employees in helmets and flimsy costumes seems to dance-fight with several of the mooks. It's a cute show, and the only exciting thing is the spread of the explosion. It shoots up in a rainbow of colors when the heroes make a pose. Games can be played here, but always be ready to clear out and make way for the heroes! A little parade of motorcycles and mecha comes through several times a day, and masked characters address the audience with well-prepared safety tips and suggestions for community service.
Gift shops in this area feature knockoff Masked Ranger costumes, transformation toys that light up, toy mecha and motorcycles that combine in many very expensive combinations, and little sparkler lights. Fortunately, actual material for an explosion is not sold.
This nonsense might feel strangely familiar...

"Excuse me, what kind of Masked Rider are we talking about?" inquired Philip, not wanting to give up.
"Oh it's a new one, something called uh... Double-U."
A slow smile spread across Philip's face. "You don't say...?"
no subject
He sighs, then reaches in his vest, and pulls out the Double Driver. "Did his belt look like this?"
no subject
"Maaa, I didn't think our reputation proceeds us. Shoutarou, let's do it then. After all, we never did disband the Kamen Singers. So we may as well do the two-in-one Masked Rider, ne?"
no subject
JOKER!
no subject
"I suppose not. This is exciting, isn't it? Henshin!"
no subject
CYCLONE! JOKER!
And bam, here stands Double! "So, what kind of routine do we need to do?"
no subject
"Ah, this is exciting, isn't it?" grinned Philip mentally as his side flashed.
no subject
Once they get on stage, Shoutarou starts with the usual 'count up your sins' pose, then launches into a bit of showing off with punches and kicks.
no subject
"Shoutarou, let's change Memories." And the right side brought out Heat and Metal.
no subject
HEAT! METAL!
The colors of their armor changed to red and silver, and Shoutarou pulls off the rod from their back, swinging it around after extending it.
...maybe even adding some low-scale fire effects to be a little more showy.
