How do the Red, Blue, and Yellow morphers work? I know the call. 71.111.215.224 17:23, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Arsenal Section has been re-vamped. Check it out to see how each Morpher works. Chebo 13:35, 30 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dino Thunder Miscellany

Ok everyone, I started this to make one thing clear. The Rangers that appear in the Dino Thunder series are officially (meaning on-screen) ,called Dino Rangers. Not Dino Thunder Rangers or anything else. I just wish to make that clear since Im trying to do my part in the article and to put an end to any edit wars (such as the one Ryulong bought to my attention). - Chebo

My question is more towards a question on what their titles are. Is Kira, for example, the Yellow Ptera Ranger or the Yellow Dino Ranger? Ryūlóng 09:39, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify: Red Dino Ranger, Yellow Dino Ranger, White Dino Ranger, Black Dino Ranger, Blue Dino Ranger. The Dino Thunder Ranger term was never used on the series. - Chebo

NOTE

Unless any other user has irefutable proof that the Dino Thunder Power Rangers' titles are in any way different (e.g. "Blue Tricera Ranger" instead of "Blue Dino Ranger") we will go by the nomenclature used by RangerCentral. Ryūlóng 21:09, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also see this ongoing thread at Rangerboard. Ryūlóng 04:45, 21 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Green White and Red

"This is the first series to bring back three previous Rangers from the past series'. The Green and White Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers and the Red Zeo Ranger."

Isn't this a bit over the top to say? I mean, they aren't different rangers, they are just different morphs of one. 84.31.79.152 15:09, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tommy was a different person back then, haven't you ever thought back to when you were younger and remembered how different you were from today? Each Ranger had their own experiences that made them different from the next. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.23.162 (talk) 02:22, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Eric

Eric is seen in "Storm Before the Calm - Part I" with his friends when the bike rally/derby/extreme whatever is attacked by Lothor's forces. If I recall correctly, Blake, Hunter, and Cam tell him and his friends to scram. Eric insists that they can help, but they are dismissed anyway. The next time we see them, they are walking up the ramp into the Wind Ninja Academy in "Part II" in ninja uniforms. In "Legacy of Power", Conner tells them to look up "Ninja Storm" and recounts that his identical twin brother went to the Wind Ninja Academy. Conner and Eric were both portrayed by James Napier. - DrachenFyre > YOU! 00:18, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I really don't want to go digging through youtube for the clip :P—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 00:42, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't have insisted it being included in the article if I didn't have proof. Just type in "Storm Before the Calm" in Youtube and you'll find both clips on the first page. (P.S. ACS, I still say that Cam is an "Other Ranger", regardless of his uniform color, but whatever...) - DrachenFyre > YOU! 00:53, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

He is a Sixth Ranger :P—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 01:16, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't let ACS hear you say that or he'll come back with his wicked "Pink is just a shade of Red" argument and I'll have to leave Wikipedia again over the illogic of said argument. - DrachenFyre > YOU! 01:18, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, yeah. Anyway, we need to get working on changing these articles from series of lists to prose. Start somewhere, and get at it, and maybe we can get the article vandalized when its linked from the main page :P—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 01:22, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's true, Conner tells Ethan to look up Ninja Storm, then everyone gives him a wierd look and he says "What? My twin brother went there. We're nothing alike, he's a total airhead." So Conner did make a mention of that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.23.162 (talk) 02:26, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal

Under similar circumstances as the Ninja Storm page, the team-up reappearance of Dino Thunder was removed.RangerKing 02:03, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thunder Storm link?

The link of "Thunder Storm 1 & 2" in the episode list redirects to a Japanese video game. Should it be simply removed or is there a different page for the Ninja Storm teamup? Genericchimera 04:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's fixed now. Someone decided to change the redirect.—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 05:23, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Parallels

Should we mention the striking similarities that Dino Thunder has with Mighty Morphin'?

For Example: Zords in common: The Pterodactyl, Tyrannosaurus, and Triceratops. The visor design is close to MMPR's. Color suits with triangles - side in DT, across the chest in MMPR. Brachiozord with Titanus. And obviously the numerous references by Tommy to MMPR.

I can think of more. It seems like Abaranger was made to be like Zyuranger.

But that's just me.

Ninja Storm is part of the original Power Rangers Universe!

"Executive producer Douglas Sloan also received heavy criticism for not tying Ninja Storm in with the original universe." Didn't that one girl with the weird hair mention Triforia from Power Rangers: Zeo?

DVD

I think guides as to which episodes of all these series have appeared on DVD would be a good addition. Since Disney isn't likely to release full season sets anytime soon, this information would be both interesting and helpful. --CmdrClow 23:30, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Original Channel

This show was also mainly broadcasted on ABC Family and Toon Disney. And ABC Family was mainly the network that produced new episodes, So it's original channels should be ABC/ABC Family/Toon Disney For the show premiered all three channels around the same time. -Mr. Comedian. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mr. Comedian (talk • contribs) 18:17, August 23, 2007 (UTC).

About "Hayley Ziktor" (Play by Ismay Johnston)

Hayley Ziktor did know Tommy is a Power Rangers.
If she did not, Than why she told the rangers on episode "Legacy of Power" that Tommy
is the best Ranger & she the one who made the Dino Morpher as well as their ranger Cycle
to save Tommy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.55.165.121 (talk) 07:19, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting proposal

I propose that sections Power Rangers Dino Thunder#Cast and characters be split into a separate page called List of Power Rangers Dino Thunder characters. The content of the current page seems off-topic and these sections are large enough to make their own page. Striker2020 (talk) 09:53, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There was a page like that, but it got redirected because of an AFD for that. I can't say if that redirect can be undone with sources to maintain that page. There is already and AFD for the characters from Power Rangers RPM. Rtkat3 (talk) 19:14, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would support a split, but List of Power Rangers Dino Thunder characters had already been up for AFD, which resulted in the redirect/merge in the first place. I'm not sure a split proposal such as this would overturn the consensus at the last AFD, but anyhow, Power Rangers Dino Thunder#Cast and characters is going to need cleaned up a bit as the way the section is now, it's all clunky and full of superfluous details that are already in the plot section and episode list. I'm not sure how to trim that section down yet, but I think cleaning up that section (as well as the other character lists/sections in the other series articles) is something that's more needed to be focused, as I bet all of the other character list articles will eventually be put up for AFD.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 17:18, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Concerned about Production section

There’s language in there that closely resembles this CBR article.

Wild Force

Someone keeps putting in the Wild Force Rangers on the Dino Thunder page. I don't get why he keeps putting them on the page, as they only appear in archival footage, but that is clear vandalism. Please report @122.53.230.72 for Continuous Vandalism. 134.114.223.240 (talk) 16:17, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
