* TransformationTrinket: Averted, unusually for an Ultra story; the three pilots would automatically change to their superhuman forms when they were in life-threatening danger (they can also transform at will in some instances). It's been speculated this might've been part of why it was never picked up for a full series, as a common device for building tension was separating the hero from his transformation item. If he changes without having to do anything, it's hard to create drama.
