No I am going to say it would have hurt his popularity without the shield.

It's no big secret but to me, Tommy was never that popular. I felt he lagged a lot of Jason't leadership skills. He actually had to be taught how to lead and even then he constantly wanted to be on his own away from the team.

I felt he was way over-rated as a character.

Way over-rated and over-used. "Dimensions In Danger" showcased that. That team up should have been about the Veteran Rangers coming together to help the Ninja Steel Rangers win a fight. Insted, what we got is a stupid Ranger cloning idea that's also badly executed. I mean, Tommy should have learned by now that when a villain comes in front of you that you don't even think twice before pressing a button on your morpher. Although I did like the Master Morpher concept and Tommy vs. Evil Tommy fight, the whole thing shifted the team-up into the Tommy-centric episode without a reason.

Besides, Tommy as a character isn't even interesting anymore since we know everything about the character there is to know. Whilst I think JDF is an awesome actor, I don't think he can contribute anything new to the TV series and the franchise as a whole anymore.

I think Tommy was an amazing character! He still would have been popular without the shield. Most people lived for the love story between Kim and Tommy.

I agree Dimensions was too Tommy Centric. Forever Red did a better job giving everyone something to do.

I think Tommy was great. But the show has moved on without him and I think it doesn't need the character to anchor it. I don't mind him coming back once in awhile though.

I would say not having the Dragon Shield would have made it harder for the audience to connect with Green Ranger.

I don't know. The shield was big. But he still had the Dragonzord and kicked all the Ranger's behinds in Green With Evil. Plus he always saved the day once he turned good.
