Review:

Tzachor had his take on MMPR with Megaforce and Chip had his take on MMPR with Ninja Steel and Dean Isrealite had his take on MMPR with the 2017 movie and think Dean succeeded better. Fans liked it more. Where Tzachor and Lynn tried to imitate (with lines, music or familarity), Dean reinvented but kept the spirit.

She says why Sledge wants the asteroid. Sledge takes the asteroid. Poisandra is happy with it. The ship is back online. Badonna took the Super Steel from the asteroid. They head to Earth. 

The Rangers return to school and Dane, their dad. He puts his trophy back. He leaves. They see a commercial for Victor and Monty showing off Monster Repellent. Victor and Monty announce they are not going back to school and they are rich and donate a million dollars to the school. They reveal a Victor statue. He remembers escaping from the monsters by farting. The Rangers ask how they escaped and they deny telling them. The Rangers go to the base. Mick teleports to them and they all hug.  He tells them that Galaxy Warriors is back. They have the Nexus is broken and with them. The statue is at the park and buzz cams are flying around. The Rangers are in their ninja suits. The monsters arrive and Smellaphant thinks the prism is in the statue. 

The humans spray their repellant and the monster takes it and Badonna blasts at the,. Preston casts a spell and tries trapping the Monsters. Odius traps them instead. Odius takes the Prism out. She revives it and turns it evil. She shows off the Ninja Super Steel and puts it in the prism to make her own stars. Preston helps them escape. The Rangers take the super steel. Mick recieves the super steel. The Rangers fight and knock Odius down and the Nexus spell is broken. Nexus spits out Power Stars for the Rangers. Odius and Badonna leave and the Rangers morph. They fight Smellaphant. Red dons the lion armor. The Rangers blast him. Levi does his star morph. combined with the flame strike from Brody. Smellaphant goes down. Cosmo Royale makes him huge and the Rangers call the Lion Fire Zord. The Megazord is formed and fights the monster. 

Odius says something menacing. The Rangers put the Prism back. The Rangers ask Mick if he's going back to the Lion Galaxy and he says he'll stay. Back at the school, Victor and Monty are broke and people want refunds. The principal confronts them about the check. They grovel to be taken back. The repellant is broken and stinks up the school. 

Episode Review:
It is pretty bland for a premiere. It is so redundant to have the Rangers lose their powers and regain them. And to just tease Sledge was cruel. It just makes Odius look weak in comparison, with no passion or quirks. She has her mission, her goal but we know zip about her. Sledge at least we know has a weakness for his wife and looks for fun when stressed. Advice to Hasbro is if they do this 'super' second season again, don't make the rangers lose their powers. Just make the last season a cliffhanger and resolve it in the second season premiere.

Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel - Happy To Be Me - Episode Review

"Happy to be Me"

Tynamon wants to use Odius' hammer and the stolen Fusion star, so he steals Levi's voice and trades voices. In order to use the stars, he needs the voice. Levi asks Preston for a spell to reverse it. Victor and Monty make fun of Levi's voice and Brody convinces them he is contagiously sick. They run away. Preston looks through his book and found a spell which Levi pushes him to use. Preston uses the spell but it shrinks him to the age he was when Galvanax attacked. Levi still has the voice. Buzzcams are detected and five Rangers go off. Levi leaves sadly. 

Tynamon has the star and shows it off. Skullgators are released and combined to make Megamauler. The Rangers morph and enter the megazord. The megazord falls apart and they escape. Tynamon berates Megamauler and he shrinks him to human size. He leaves and Tynamon goes after him. Levi is made fun of by kids at the park and befriends a little girl. He calls himself Aiden. Victor and Monty are in hazmat suits at school. Preston apologizes to Levi. Levi says its okay, he says its not the end of the world. He says he is happy to be me. Preston finds a seperation spell and brings Levi back with voice and all. Tynamon has Levi's voice and it changes back. He finds Megamauler on the ship.

Megamauler doesn't want to fight. Tynamon says he is scared and ricks him to go back. Mick gives him Superstar mode. The Rangers morph. Levi dons the new mode and fights the monsters. He destroys the monster and he fights Tynamon. Red goes to fire mode and the other Rangers help. Levi defeats Tynamon and heretreats. The Rangers take the Fusion star back. Megamauler is made big again. The Rangers call the Megazord, combine the Blaze Megazord and Ultrazord and destroy the monster. At the park, Levi surprises the little girl who helped him and asks if she wants to play ball with them. The boy who bullied Levi asks to play with him, he asks the girl and she says yes. Victor and Monty get their masks knocked off and roll in the mud.

Review:
They should have more villains with sexy voices like Jordi Webber, it makes them more interesting. 

Power Rangers Battle For The Grid

A few days ago, NWay announced they would be releasing a multi-platform game that will be available for PS4, XBOX One, Nintendo Switch and Steam for PC. It will be available in April and is now available for pre-order. Many fans first thought it was a 'port' for Legacy Wars. It is a brand new game that just looks like Legacy Wars. There is no cards, there is a story mode and it is player against player online as well. 

So far the characters announced have been Red MM Ranger (Jason), Green MM Ranger (Tommy), Yellow Super Megaforce (Gia), and Lord Drakkon. Skins will be available to go over the character but aren't new characters. Skins announced have been Pink MM Ranger, Lord Drakkon final form and Evil Green Ranger. It is believed Ranger Slayer will be a playable character as well. Fans are weary if this game will be 'good' or not. I think its all subjective. So far I'm excited. I like Legacy Wars and hoped for a console game.

Power Rangers Alternate/Unused Logos

During pre-production, things change. Some designs may change or vary. Also with logos, sometimes the higher ups don't like it and finalize them. Sometimes they are just place holders for something better. It is unknown why some of these changes happened. There are also some logos slightly different with Wild Force, Dino Charge and Megaforce but they are minor edits so I didn't include them.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1993-1995, 2010)

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers logo (top left) logo is the show logo. The toy and merchandise logo (top right) and the international one omitted 'Mighty Morphin' (bottom left). The 2010 "reversioned" logo for the Disney re-edited episodes.

Power Ranger Zeo

Power Rangers Zeo originally was going to be called "Zeorangers." The logo was going to be originally used on the show and used in early promotional items that public was not meant to see. The logo was also used internationally on toys and merchandise. 

Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie

It originally was going to be called "Power Rangers: Race to the Volcano," here is an early promotional from Jackie Marchand with said logo.

Power Rangers Turbo

This "Turborangers" logo was used on international toys. 

Power Rangers Ninja Storm

Same logo, just different coloring. The right logo was seen on an early promotional flyer. I like the final one (left) that has the colors of the main trio: red, yellow and light blue.

Power Rangers SPD

The original logo to right had very little color and alternate style font. I like the finalized one to the left. 

Power Rangers Mystic Force

The alternate logo to the right was used on some merchandise. I like the left finalized logo with the design in back. 

Power Rangers Jungle Fury

Similar logo but different colors and the F and Y are bigger and Jungle is in white and smaller and different font.

Power Rangers (2017)

The 2017 movie logo is silver with red highlights with bolt in center in a straight line. One of the prototypes was red and blue background with two lines and thunderbolt R and P. 

Hasbro's Beast Morphers efforts and updates

https://thepowerscoopblog.wordpress.com/

Thanks to The Power Scoop and other fans that have chronicled pictures of the Power Rangers Beast Morphers filmed in New Zealand. Filming for the second season began a few days ago. The first season was shot in Fall of 2018. Things observed have been the following...

Recreation of Monster suits

Beast Morphers adapts Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters (2012) so the costumes are old and some tattered. Word is that the monster suits did not do well so Hasbro spent money to have them reproduced. Many of the monster suits have been spotted being shot. 

Fifth Ranger Confirmation

The fourth and fifth rangers of Go-Busters are gold and silver. In Go-Busters, gold was human and silver was a robot. Because of shooting it has been confirmed Silver is indeed a robot as well as they cast Abraham Rodriguez as Gold. 

 

Blaze

Dark Buster, a character that appeared briefly in Go-Busters, has been spotted being used earlier on. Also the stunt actor for the actor playing Blaze has been spotted wearing a morpher similar to the Dark Buster wrist changer. Also in a merchandise website, Dark Buster has been labeled as Blaze. Blaze will be in some of the merchandise. It is rare for an evil ranger who barely got merchandise in Japan to get in merchandise. In 1994, Green Ranger barely appeared in merchandise. Many sixth Rangers barely got merchandise, for example Gold Ranger, Green Samurai Ranger, White Dino Ranger, Solaris Knight, Gold Dino Charge and Gold Ninja Steel to name a few. Given that Gold and Silver appear later on, it is probably why Blaze will be in merchandise, much like Bat Ranger in Jungle Fury merchandise. 

New Power-Up

 As of today January 1, 2019 the Internet is buzzing about new photos of Red Beast Morpher Ranger in a new power up. In Go-Busters, the main trio receive Powered Custom power-ups. But this power up looks similar but different with a cheetah chest plate, round shoulder pads and red and silver wrist gauntlets. It is unknown if the other Rangers will receive it as well. I personally assume they will, this is probably for the second 'super' season. 

Lavender Ranger's Thoughts

I think it is good Hasbro is investing more money into the production. According to my friend who is a Hasbro fan, Hasbro hasn't been well known for spending a lot for Transformers animated series. But because Hasbro might lose the Marvel license soon, it is wise for Hasbro to invest more into Power Rangers. But for fans suspecting this would make the season better, more money and original footage doesn't always spell a successful season. I do have to say that it does seem promising.
