CS85 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 If I recall these were badass toys, and MMPR was a ton of fun as a kid until it got out of hand with the Turbo and all that junk. But until the 1st movie came out and the series sunk downhill, I was a big fan of both the show and the sweet toys. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

TBGKon Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 So is Disney bringing back the old shows, or using the footage from the original series with new characters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 It's Morphin Time! haha, just a few weeks ago, I had a childhood kick and watched videos of MMPR on Youtube for hours, remembering my childhood, I think they've done the logo justice, the previous logo is basically the same style, just in an older dated look...I believe it's a good upgrade, but it could have been better. The longer tail of the P makes the whole logo seem unbalanced, and capitalizing the R in Rangers leaves an unbalanced space for "Mighty Morphin" as well, a few tweaks and you've got a solid winner...

Brass Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Black guy as the Black Rangers? Asian girl as the Yellow Ranger? It wasn't until I was older that I spotted the subtle racism in the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.Nonetheless, loved the original toys and the first series, and didn't even mind the first movie that much. Megazord was the absolute most bad-ass toy you could have as a 4-year old, too. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc?

SilverEagle5 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think this is awesome. I loved watching the original Power Rangers when I was younger. It's also nice to see that the "refreshed" toys don't have the power coin symbol on their chests. It always bugged me that they didn't in the show, why did they on the toys and in the movie?

AAO Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Absolutely love the new logo. Still nostalgic and true to its roots. Good type & color choice. Behance Network || ianbakar.com || Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think it looks great. I only watched the first show for a couple of seasons because I fell into that age group that wasn't quite too old for the show but I was reaching the age where I was getting interested in other things. I still enjoyed it while I watched it though. I love the updated logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I remember when the show was so popular that when it was moved to 5 PM, it was just killing the local 5 PM newscasts in the ratings. And the Green Ranger was the best. He could kick all the rest of Rangers' asses but gave up being a villain so he could get some Pink Ranger tail. Hell, his ride was already the same size all the rest of team's zords combined."King Kong ain't got nuthin' on me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwing64 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I loved this show when I was little... and while I haven't been into Power Rangers for a good few years (I grew out of it while Lost Galaxy was airing over here), this news makes the little kid inside me all excited and jumping around and stuff.Actually, it's funny that this is being announced now: just the other day I was thinking that they should do something like this for the series 20th Anniversary in 2013.Edit: As for the logo, I'm a little disappointed that there's no red behind the "Mighty Morphin". Still a pretty good redesign though PotD: 24/08/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoligerBS Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I love the fact that over the past 15 years, there have been at least as many logos, but they all have the same feel...http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c138/pr_legends2005/logos/Power-Rangers-LOGOS-X-USA.jpghttp://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c138/pr_legends2005/logos/Power-Rangers-LOGOS-X-USA.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has the feel of the original, but much more modern. So are they rebooting the series, or just re-airing the old (and severely outdated, but totally awesome) originals?

Chawls Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Wow! I didn't realize there were so many closeted Power Rangers fans on this forum. Pretty rad! (Wait, is that 80's or 90's slang?)

The Ranger fans are from the 90?s. The 80?s would be something like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Thundercats, The Smurfs, GI Joe, Transformers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben7 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 wow, awesome childhood flashbacks... thanks for sharing!the very 1st Red Ranger (Austin St. John aka Jason) with the T-Rex was my fave and I always had a crush on the Kimberly the Pink Ranger. I was so looking forward to the movie and then was shoked when they were replaced with new actors!because of the synchro, the departures had not yet occured. I took a long time to get over that, well until I kinda outgrew the Power Ranger years... (never really watched all other incarnations) appart from some youtube clips.I still have Lord Zed and the Gold Ranger (also played Austin St. John for a while), sadly I can't find Goldar and the Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger anymore.as for the Logo: appart from the colors I like it, cleaned up, diffrent angle, modern touch but still similiar to the original one.
