IMDb profile |
Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers (often abbreviated as MMAR and often simply called Alien Rangers) was a Power Rangers mini-series[citation needed] inside the third season of the TV series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers that lasted for 10 episodes. As with the 3rd season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, this miniseries used footage and monsters from the eighteenth Super Sentai series, Ninja Sentai Kakuranger; however, the Rangers' costumes from Kakuranger were now used as well.

[edit] Synopsis
The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers are turned into children by Master Vile, and Zordon recruits five alien Power Rangers from the planet Aquitar, humanoids that feed on water and have awkward, watery voices, to help protect the Earth from Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa. Meanwhile, the kids seek to find the pieces of the Zeo Crystal to return them to their full adult form.
Eventually, the Rangers found their Zeo sub-crystals and recruited a new friend, Tanya Sloan from Africa, as Aisha Campbell, the previous Yellow Ranger, wished to remain in Africa when she found her Zeo sub-crystal. Once the Zeo Crystal was recombined, the Rangers returned to their grown form, and the Aquitian Rangers returned to their home planet of Aquitar.
Goldar and Rito Revolto stole the Zeo Crystal and detonated a bomb in the Command Center, ending the miniseries on a cliffhanger that led into the following series: Power Rangers: Zeo.
The Aquitian Rangers are later seen and referenced in further Power Rangers series, including the first past/present Ranger team up during Power Rangers: Zeo. In particular, Billy Cranston goes and visits them on their home planet, therefore explaining his absence from the series from Power Rangers: Turbo onwards.
Some of the Alien Rangers are also seen in the climatic montage fight between the forces of good and evil at the finale of Power Rangers In Space and the Red Aquitian Ranger (Aurico) is seen in the Power Rangers Wild Force episode Forever Red which saw every previous Red Ranger (except Rocky DeSantos) united to stop the remnants of the Machine Empire in its latest scheme.

- Shogunzords: The Aquitian Rangers also had access to the original Power Rangers' Shogunzords and were able to form the Shogun Megazord (most of the monsters they fought were eliminated this way). Along with the Falconzord, they could form the Shogun MegaFalconzord, which they used to defeat their most feared nemesis, the Hydro Hog.
