Trivia

 * In Power Rangers Turbo, the shrunken Signalman footage was changed.
 * In Power Rangers Turbo, instead of making anything it hit become younger, the cream made stuff turn into animals, so the giant blue robot became a camel instead of exploding.
 * Imo-Youkan are yellow cube-shaped foods made from jellied sweet potatoes.
