Not really. It didn't matter which was the home team and which was the visting one so to speak. At that point it was just Bulk left. I was a big fan of both Tommy and Billy and with neither of them there anymore and a new character who quickly became annoying to the extreme with no one I was drawn to make up for it with my favorites gone then a plot is drastically altered to throw in this annoying character his bossy emo self leading the Turbo replacements like a shepard to thier sheep and being proven right and the TMNT being dragged through the mud not to mention Venus having to be there I had enough. It was no longer fun and it felt that it wasn't Power Rangers anymore even Angel Grove was removed from the equation.

Helps when you're a long-term PR fan and not blinded by nostalgia.

I may have missed out on those teams but its doesn't bother me. One thing though most of the ranger actors first acting job is PR. Its a shame that not many get too much success in Hollywood following thier PR stints.

I only have seen a few minutes of Ninja Storm because the guienea pig ninja master being an obivious nod to Splinter which caught me attention and then a highlight episode in Dino Thunder when Tommy was captured as a way of refreshing my memory. Looking back I think I dropped out at a good time. It took doing a "Where Are They Now" search that I learned of the death of Thuy Trang for me to appreciate it but they are sepcial to me. You are right that in the nostalgia being a blinder as I even said as much. Still though I may not be able to state with validity they are the greatest team they were the ones I could enjoy the most when watching as a a kid. Not many of the replacements and replacement of replacements did much for me which is why I found no one to support and hate on a new character.

Do you have any of the Super Legend figures?
