[edit] Merge

Someone has suggested merging this article with Zord, which rather defeats the purpose of seperating it out in the first place. I think this situation works, and this article is quite long enough without being shoved back into another article. -- Supermorff 18:13, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

• Agreed. Merge tag removed. Notcarlos 18:26, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

I have put the merger tag back. These articles cover exactly the same subject. If a zord can only be from the series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, then the content should be brought together and put under the page title Zord, as per Wiki naming conventions. I feel that Zord, in this case is precise enough (not ambiguous), and the singular noun should always be preferred in naming.

No, I see the point now. Sorry guys. I guess I just haven't watched enough Power Rangers. Madeinsane 17:30, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tubby Force?

Okay, somebody has added several references to the "Tubby Force Rangers" on this page. Very funny, and I'm leaving it for now partly because I appreciate the joke and partly cos I'm too lazy to revert it. I'm quite worried that someone might actually take it seriously, though. Anyway, there are also other bits of information peppered throughout the article (such as that the Biozords in Power Rangers: Dino Thunder were made from DNA taken from this season's Dinozords, or that some of the Thunderzords were rebuilt into some of the zords in Power Rangers: Ninja Storm. Is there any canonical evidence to back this up? -- Supermorff 15:30, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

That stuff was speculation, and bad speculation. The original Dinozords were nothing but machines, and machines don't have DNA. The Zords in PRNS were built by the Ninja Academies.

[edit] Droids?

Seeing as how they were only refered to as 'droids' in the original pilot of the series, doesn't it seem a bit excessive to, under every single entry, include the name as it 'may have happeared if zords were still droids'? To me it seems redundant and self-explainatory with the intial clarification...

I agree, not to mention it is totally unsourced speculation (Godzilla-droid?). I'm going to remove it from the article. -- SmokeDetector47^{( TALK )} 18:57, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Believe it or not, readers love trivia, and if not overdone, a bit of trivia like that can actually be beneficial to the article. I say leave the "droids" references, but with only one mention of each droid name, as not to be redundant. --MVillani1985 05:21, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Titanus or Titanos?

In MMPR, wasn't the toy of the Brachiosaurus-shpaed Zord called "Titanos" as opposed to Titanus? -NP Chilla 03:18, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shogun and Ninja

the Shogunzords and Ninjazords were from different series, but they used the same animal-theme and symbols, and falconzord's toy is compatible with the shogun megazord... how'd saban work that? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.72.21.221 (talk) 03:29, 8 March 2007 (UTC).

The Ninjazords and Shogunzords are both part of the same Sentai series Kakuranger. In Kakuranger, the Falconzord is a mecha distinct from both other megazords, and is compatible with both. bradleyjx 08:16, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

You'd think I'd have just looked that up, lol. I totally did and now I get it. I think the reason I messed that up is that the alien rangers had their 'battle borgs' too, ... which aren't even in this article.
