Oh, it's a "adaptation" of Momotaro, the Peach Boy. Okay, so that explains the "taro". I'm guessing the "Don" is more the onomatopoeia, like BOOM or KAPOW. And the Avatar part seems to be hinting at some sort of video game tie-in, especially with the D-pads on their boots.
Also, I guess the Pink and Black rangers are going to be completely CGI? That's...a choice. It explains why the black dog is so chibi in the poster.

And Yellow is a Oni. There's probably a interesting backstory, there.
I think I like these suits. I might need to see them more in action, but I'm liking what I'm seeing. The lines give me Shinkenger vibes. Not sure about the plastic "vests" and shoulder pads, but it'll probably look okay.
I'm reading in the comments that Inoue (Jetman, Agito, 555, Hibiki, Kiva) will be the one writing this season. He's...uneven, but usually entertaining.
EDIT:
We have more magazine scans of the rangers.
Donbrothers images appearing in magazines gives fans better look at full Sentai team.

OOF....Pink's long alien-like legs and and Black's oversized hands and noodly arms are kind of uncanny. Maybe it'll look better in motion, but...eep.
Also, here's something that completely slipped by my radar: Spectreman Heroes, a western comic published by Antarctic Press (of Gold Digger fame!) and art by Matt Frank (of Godzilla fame!) which will spotlight various Japanese heroes, like...Zaborger and Lion Maru?

Those are some deep cuts. I guess they're all from P Productions. A toku company...I've never heard of, since they mostly worked during the 60s-70s.
First issue will be out in February. My guesses for the other three heroes? Spectreman (duh), Ambassador Magma (aka Space Giants), and Tetsujin Tiger Seven (who has a tiger head)
