Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

Perhaps the Special Ranger suits can be thought of as RPM's MMPR team. Since they are an AU.

I think the Spirit Rangers would have been better with actual actors playing them in civilian form. If they did that , it replaces the need for a singular Sixth Ranger.

so you think just because Bandai spent money on the suits that Disney didn't spend any? Suits rip and I highly doubt Bandai was going to pay to make extra suits if they were needed.

Disney didn't care about the series anymore as of RPM since they knew they were canceling the series no matter what happened with RPM so spending money on a series that was canceled would have made zero sense.

no doubt on both accounts. Bandai usually helped out anyway if there was something that they wanted in the show.

Shark Cycles, Battlizers, etc. Bandai likely even paid for the other cycles that were made for Power Rangers.

Saban Entertainment, Disney, and Saban Brands were and are businesses. it makes sense to work with stratagic partners like Toei and Bandai. In Bandai's case , they have an investment in PR to sell toys. So why not let them help you with costs when you can get it? Shooting original scenes is expensive. And if we didn't get help from Bandai the show would be forced to use even more Sentai Footage.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

I don't really worry about the business side of things and the cost. I just enjoy the show. But I don't think Saban and Disney are cheap at all.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

It would have been hard to do a new team of Spirit Rangers. Since its you already had a team of newbie Rangers in the original three Rangers. It was too soon to give them proteges. That would work better if Jungle Fury had a second season.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

Why not just have the Masters become the Spirit Rangers?

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

Jungle Fury isn't my favorite. But I really loved Jungle Karma. It was fun having a Rangsr team use a pizza place as a hang out.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

I was so mad when they didn't use the RPM Dinos. It would have been an opportunity to do MMPR nostalgia.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

I could see where the Dino Powers would be used after Venjix escapes from the old Morphers.

Re: Should Disney have made a JF Sixth Ranger?

I hated that ending. They shouldn't have left us hanging with Venjix's fate.
