Astro Morpher

Sign in to edit
Icon-megarangerThis article is about a/an Morpher in Power Rangers in Space, the last installment in the Zordon Era.

"Let's Rocket!"
―Morphing call[src]

"Anybody know what time it is? It's Morphin' Time!"
―Brody and the Legendary Rangers[src]

"3-3-5 [confirmation sound]"
―Input confirmed.[src]

The Astro Morpher was a wrist-mounted Morpher and function-triggering gadget worn by the five core Space Rangers, developed on KO-35 and four given to the former second-generation Turbo Rangers by Andros. This Morpher featured a more utilitarian design and was the first multi-functional Morpher, utilized for summoning the team’s vehicles and Zords as well as morphing, all via a 3-digit trigger code entered through the Morpher's numerical keypad and then activated with the keypad's 'Enter' key (marked as an 'E' on a single key with the enter symbol placed beside the initial) and a communication link with other Morphers for contacting others.

Alternative to the Astro Morphers, the Super Mega Rangers used Legendary Ranger Keys provided by Gosei to assume the corresponding Ranger forms as a Legendary Ranger Mode.

Codes[]

It should be noted, that in the show, the only code ever seen used is "3-3-5" - the other codes, while seen listed on the Morpher, are never seen entered; the toy of this Morpher also has an exclusive extra code programmed in: 9-1-2; the exclusive code is for a 'Simon Says'-type game where the Morpher calls out a number and the player enters the number - this continues in an increasingly faster manner, and has four 'lives' (the red lights) that allow the player four mistakes. There is also a "sound icon" button to alert the Rangers.

Each of these codes has a different purpose:

  • 3-3-5: the input code that enables the user to morph into a Space Ranger.
  • 2-5-9: the input code a Ranger uses to summon his/her Galaxy Glider.
  • 7-6-1: input code ordering the Megaship to deploy the Mega Tank.
  • 1-0-8: input code to link up with D.E.C.A.
  • 5-4-1: the input code to summon the Astro Megazord.

Morphing Sequence[]

Power_Rangers_In_Space_-_First_Morph_and_Fight_(Power_Rangers_vs_Quantrons)-2

Power Rangers In Space - First Morph and Fight (Power Rangers vs Quantrons)-2

The first morphing sequence shot, after a real-time shot of a Ranger presenting his/her Morpher out and then bringing it to his/her chest, is when the Morpher is opened and the morph triggering code ‘3-3-5’ (then activated with 'Enter') is input. A facial shot of each Ranger's unmorphed form is seen before a shot-transition flash effect shows the Ranger suit materializing into view with information screen effects of both text and visuals and an appearance of a special screen with 'MORPHING COMPLETE' (the text in the 'MORPHING COMPLETE' box colored as a morphing Ranger's color), the morphing Ranger seen spinning in a brief display after the suit's appearance as the screen effects are shown. The morph ends with 'MORPHING COMPLETE' zooming towards the viewer for a shot transition and the morphed Ranger's helmet spinning from the viewer for a facial shot as a screen display appears on their helmet's forehead display monitor.

According to T.J.'s Identity Crisis, pressing '0' will teleport a Ranger to the last known location.

Notes[]

  • The Astro Morpher and Digimorpher are the first pair of Morphers to issue voice response to entered commands.
  • The second half of the morphing sequence and the sequence's shot of the morph code being entered and activated is actually Megaranger footage: instead of showing 'MEGA(COLOR) READY', it is replaced with 'MORPHING COMPLETE' with the text being the respective Ranger's color, and the "OK" on the visors is also omitted - this is the same with Zhane's morph.
  • The Astro Morpher was voiced by an uncredited Samuel Pop Aning (who also portrayed the I.N.E.T. technician Pop in Megaranger, and later Whacker Wilson in "Lost & Found in Translation") using the same voice clip as its counterpart, the Degitaizer.
  • According to Shuki Levy, during the production between the 16th and 17th episodes of Power Rangers Turbo, the Astro Morpher originally was going to retain its counterpart name in the draft script but later was scrapped.[1]
