Alpha 5 is a robotic ally of Bio-Man.
Development[]
During the development of the pilot, Chodenshi Bioman's Peebo was the source of what would become Alpha 5 in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to Power Rangers Turbo. In Haim Saban's original pitch to adapt Chodenshi Bioman as Bio-Man, Peebo's costume was to be used for an equivalent character named "Alpha-5". Ultimately, however, the first Power Rangers series would be adapted from Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger; while the robotic assistant character was retained, an original design would be created for Alpha 5—a design that featured red, blue and black as the primary colors for his body, his golden feet now much larger, and a head in the shape of the classic "flying saucer" with a flashing red bar for his eyes.
No voice actor was ever revealed for Alpha-5, however in the final pilot, Richard Steven Horvitz - by then a veritable unknown, would be cast to provide the final Alpha's voice.
