Ninja Megazord



"Ninja Megazord, power up!"

The Ninja Megazord is the combination of five of the Ninjazords. It was used in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers - Season 3 and Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie.

Overview
After the Thunderzords were destroyed by Rito Revolto, the Rangers travelled to the Temple of Power, where a legendary being named Ninjor (the alleged creator of the original Power Coins) gave them new powers and new Ninjazords. The Ninjazords were the Falcon, Bear, Crane, Wolf, Frog, and Ape. These Zords used the cunning and stealth of Ninja instead of brute force. The Ninja Megazord has five component Ninjazords. There is also a sixth core Ninjazord that is not included in the formation- the White Ninja Falconzord.

The Ninjazords are inoperable if one of their own are taken out of commission. When the White Ninja Falconzord was stolen by Kat while she was under Rita's spell, the rangers couldn't summon the other five until Billy constructed a remote to replicate the White Ninja Falconzord's systems within the Ninja Megazord.

When Master Vile reversed time, the rangers lost the ability to summon their Ninjazords. With the destruction of the Power Coins in this altered past, it doesn't appear that the rangers were capable of summoning them in the restored present, as Zordon, Billy, and Alpha 5 were forced to construct new zords for the Zeo Rangers. Billy mentions that he recycled "the old zords" to make them, though it is unknown if this refers to the Ninjazords.

Black Frog Ninjazord
The Frog Ninjazord is the second Zord of Adam Park, the second Black Ranger. It formed the legs of the Ninja Megazord. When on its own, it could breath fire and release several smaller frogs, which can latch on to their target and produce an electric shock. In the movie, it could lasso a monster with its tongue and send an electric pulse through the tongue to electrocute the enemy.

Pink Crane Ninjazord
The Crane Ninjazord was piloted by Kimberly Hart, the Pink Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. The 3rd Zord of Kimberly Hart and 1st zord of Katherine Hillard. The Crane Ninjazord was given to Kimberly by Ninjor, who was its keeper for a long time. The Zord also became Katherine's Ninjazord following Kimberly's departure. On its own, the Crane can fire lasers from its wings. The Crane Ninjazord formed the head of the Ninja Megazord

Blue Wolf Ninjazord
The Wolf Ninjazord is the third Zord of Billy Cranston, the Blue Ranger. When fighting alone, it was capable of doing flips and striking enemies with its tail. It was also shown to have blinding speed and agility. In the movie, it was shown biting one of Ivan Ooze's Ectomorphicons, and not letting go. It forms the left arm of the Ninja Megazord.

Yellow Bear Ninjazord
The Bear Ninjazord is the second Zord of Aisha Campbell, the second Yellow Ranger. When fighting alone, it could create massive earthquakes by stomping the ground, or fire energy blasts from its eyes. It formed the torso of the Ninja Megazord.

Red Ape Ninjazord
The Ape Ninjazord is the second Zord of Rocky DeSantos, the second Red Ranger. The Ape Ninjazord was given to Rocky by Ninjor, who was its keeper for a long time. It is simiar to the Red Dragon Thunderzord in battle mode. It was the humanoid fighter of the group, the only Ninjazord to stand on two legs and battle. It used twin ninja-to as its weapons, and formed the right arm of the Ninja Megazord

The Ninja Megazord was the combination of the Bear, Crane, Wolf, Frog, and Ape Ninjazords. The Black Frog formed the legs, and attached to the Yellow Bear, which formed the torso. The Blue Wolf and Red Ape formed the two arms, left and right respectively, and the Pink Crane formed the head. Equipped with its Power Gloves, it can throw super energy punches. It's main strength was it's speed - it was much more agile than previous Megazords, but it couldn't hold anything due to its lack of fingers. Optionally, the White Falcon could attach to the back of the Megazord, giving it flight capability; this combination was referred to as the

Ninja MegaFalconzord. It could fly into the air charging the Ape and Wolf as it flies, and finish off monsters by using a charged-up Wolf and Ape Ninjazords' fists to fly and hit the monster.



The Ninja Megazord uses its power gloves as its primary weapon. It's finisher involves an energy punch from it's fists.

Transformation
The Ninja Megazord was one of the simplest zord transformations when it came to its secondary mode and its Ultrazord mode. The Frog forms the lower torso, thighs & legs, Bear forms the torso, Wolf forms the left arm, Ape forms the right arm, and Crane forms the head while the Falconzord can attach to his back so he can fly.

Design
PLEX designed Ninja Megazord. Its design is based on lightly armored ninja, most evident in the vented headgear and barefoot/sandal-like foot design. It also utilizes add on pieces that reflect two basic types of hand attacks, the fist and the closed palm. Originally designed to be a secondary mecha, it became the primary Megazord when adapted for Power Rangers, thus making the upgrade to a heavier-armored Shogun Megazord later on. The Frog, Wolf and Bear have a simplistic streamlined design, much like old Japanese art, while the Crane recalls the look of origami (paper cranes). The Red Ape on the other hand is a more direct representation of the legendary Monkey King, which last inspired the design of the Tyrannosaurus Red Dragon Thunderzord in Battle Mode.
