They can form a unique combination of ToQ-Oh reminiscent of past Sentai Robos by switching with Red Ressha. The ToQ Changer toy is shown to have sounds for Legend Ressha of all 37 previous Sentai.

Behind the scenes
Portrayal
- Ippei Akagi is portrayed by Shinichi Yuuki (結城 真一 Yūki Shin'ichi). As DenziRed, his suit actor was Kazuo Niibori (新堀 和男 Nībori Kazuo).
Notes
- Akagi's characterization and personality (as a caring, skilled warrior who teaches his craft) is the closest equivalent to Jason Lee Scott, the first Red Power Ranger, as opposed to other potential Red comparisons such as Tsuyoshi Kaijo (the first Red) or Yamato Tribe Prince Geki (the Ranger whom Jason uses for his powers in footage).
