Power Rangers - the appreciation and discussion thread

[MikeandRaph87]

An additional thought in my Sentai to Power Ranger differences, did any other villain have a base of operations on Earth's moon aside from Bandora and Bacchus Wrath? When The Machine Empire's counterpart took up residence there were there any references or reminders of Rita's counterpart having been there a few years prior?

I think RPM was the perfect ending personally. These last ten years have felt too 'artificial' for me, though Dino Charge and Dino Fury were handled the best.

Is it just me or is there actually f**k all for the 30th anniversary?

I don’t know. The special was cool, and I’m happy that Hasbro is re-tooling and re-releasing the OG rangers so that I can get a Green Ranger for a decent price.

Plus there’s comic con yet on the way. Who knows what we’ll see there.

Oh ye don’t get me wrong the special, I enjoyed that very much. I’m interested in the comic, but it seems for the big 3-Oh, it’s kind of a mediocre anniversary. No crossover, hell, correct me if I’m wrong, there’s been zero update on anything television related

I think you might be right as far as the tv show.

Simon Bennet , the producer, routinely updates us on what to expect from the new season on social media.

There isn't much really to go on. The series is only ten episodes long this year, only uses Zord footage from the Sentai series, everything else is original, there's no filler episodes etc, it'll all drop on Netflix at once, and after that we don't know when the show will be back if at all because everyone from cast to crew have departed and they've shut down production in New Zealand for good.

I have used the MMPR fanfilm footage still available on a LOAD of fan edited projects over the years. Never waste an idea!

I’m only like 2 episodes into Carranger (going to finish Oh-ranger of course first) you should look up Elgar’s face from the American vs japanese

Lightning Collection series is to be reportedly paused until possibly summer 2024. There is no show next year.

Does that mean the Master Morpher that was due in quarter 3 2023 is not going to under my Christmas tree?

I would like a rundown on the Zeo and Turbo compare and contrast as far as the villains are concerned. I know there is a video chronicling the series, but I would rather read your takes before going into them.

It appears Hasbro weren't really interested in continuing the core show, but were contractually obligated after buying it from Saban.

What does that mean exactly? Are they primarily interested in rebooting MMPR? That’s my take/assumption anyway.

Finally got around to finish Hurricanger (Ninja Storm) save for the 20th anniversary

Amy Jo Johnson's PR Comic appears to be another "distant future/old man logan" type deal for the remaining MMPR Rangers.

That sounds amazing

[Allio]

Hopefully it’s good. I’m not expecting much, but yeah.

Does anyone know what’s going on with the 95 movie? Wondered why we hadn’t seen lightning collection figures, but then a buddy told me that there’s something going on with the rights on that one.
