At the time it was airing, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was one of the best kids shows on TV. So it made little to no sense to change the suits when season 2 came around. Those suits with the white diamonds on them and the dino mouths for the visors were iconic!
BUT looking back at it now, would you have changed them and If so how and when would you have introduced them? Especially sense they appeared in Super Megaforce, I've become obsessed with this idea, so yes I would have and here is what I would have done:
With Zyu2 still in progress when Zedd takes over, I wouldn't have destroyed the original zords just yet. This would have enabled to use these unused Zord fights in early season 2. Still having Zedd take focus on taking out the green ranger's weakening powers culminating with Green No More 2-parter. I'm sort of combing 2 existing stories for this. Zedd is able to create five corresponding candles connected to all five rangers and have them fail and have the zords destroyed in battle keeping them from getting to the candles in time. But Zordon reveals that he "Planned" for such events and revealed the new powers/suits and zords to the team. With the white ranger introduced later with no higher rank than the green ranger the season before.
Still using the term Thunder for the season.
Also, just to speed things up, the story of this episode would be to have Jason, Zack and Trini chosen for the Peace Conference. Thus giving Tommy the role of the Red Thunder Ranger, Adam as the Green Thunder Ranger, Aisha as Yellow, Billy and Kim same colors and make Rocky the white ranger later on.
Any thoughts?
