References to Power Rangers
Go-Busters contains several references to Power Rangers - some obvious and some not overtly stated. Usually these references refer to 'firsts' in Sentai history of plot devices already in place in Power Rangers.
 * The mecha are called MegaZords. This is for both the heroes and villains. The difference is that individual mecha are also called MegaZords, unlike in Power Rangers where the name refers to a "giant robo", usually a combiner. 'Zord' is used as a suffix for Metaroids' MegaZords, such as ShovelRoid's ShovelZord.
 * The term "Zord", which originated in Power Rangers, was also used for the G-Zord in Mirai Sentai Timeranger.
 * The transformation call is "It's Morphin' Time!" which was used all throughout Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Power Rangers Zeo, the first two Power Rangers adaptations of Super Sentai Shows.
 * Red Buster has a special bike (by way of Cheeda Nick's alternate mode). This recalls how some Red Rangers in Power Rangers receive special red-only bikes.
 * The Go-Busters can wear their suits without their helmets. This is similar to how the first Power Rangers frequently appeared helmetless.
 * Though the Go-Busters weren't the first. In some episodes, the Go-Ongers usually remove their helmets after dealing with a Banki.

Trivia

 * This is the first season since GoGo-V in which there's no "ranger" or "-ger" in the name.
 * This is the first Sentai team to have their name be in plural format as their official name.
 * This is the first Sentai team since Carranger where the individual Rangers' designations start with their color name.
 * This is the first season since Kakuranger where the Rangers' collars are not white.
 * This is the second Sentai whose core team all have visors matching their respective color, after Mirai Sentai Timeranger.
 * This is the first Sentai to have a Ranger and mecha based off of a rabbit.
 * This is the second season where the red ranger's mech can form it's own mech, the first being the RyuuSei-Oh from Gosei Sentai Dairanger.
 * This is the first time the two additional heroes for a three-man Sentai team are gold and silver.
 * The two additional rangers share the motif of the two additional rangers in Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger, the Gouraigers. Both Beet Buster and KabutoRaiger are based on the Japanese rhinoceros beetle, while Stag Buster and KuwagaRaiger are both based on the Japanese stag beetle.
