Me thinks... boredom is going on here.

While I would normally use the same argument that 'it's a robot it don't have a gender'... This is a robot that comes from a world of living, gendered, cars, jets, planes, amd so on that are also fusions with animals... I say girl cause of the sort of heart design.

I kinda see Bomper as a middle ground. Like he's really intended to be male but he definitely gives off a very feminine feeling.

Edit: BTW I think Bomper is a boy. I think he refers to himself in a male way, doesn't he? Plus, he's wearing a male robe in that top pic. He is cute though, like some heart shaped cube... on wheels. It probably makes you develop feelings for him and attribute human characteristics!

I swear I've seen him wear ribbons though. I'm fairly sure they put him in the G-Prince category at one point though

I have this vague recollection of someone outright stating that Bomper is a boy. I can't remember if it was the G5 episode (where yes, Bomper was lumped together with the guys), one of the after-episode segments, a net movie, or even one of the live shows where the (very female) voice actress appeared in person.

if Bomper were a girl, they'd probably look like this all the time, right?

I was wondering if you'd get to Bomper.

The robots (engines etc) in Go-Onger seem to have gender (and even sexual reproduction!) so I'm comfortable in saying Bomper's a boy. With Japanese stuff (and maybe kids's stuff anywhere) it seems that if a character is female it's made incredibly obvious with stereotypical appearance and personality (unfortunately). I thought it was weird in the series that BeaRV (and the recolor in the movie) was the only female engine.

I think TVN didn't get ninningers first episode raw yet so they are trying to stall time with stupid polls. Next is timerrangers robot owl thing. :P (Disclaimer I am just kidding not trying to start something that is not already going on :P)

Nah, you'd know it'd be getting stupid when they'd get to someone like Liveman's Colon:

Nah, it's going, we're just working out the fine details. The polls are just a result of my random nature. Plus they're fun!
