 This article is about a power-up in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.
|
The Metallic Armor is a glittery coat that covers the Rangers costumes. When Master Vile came, he fed the Tengas strength enhancing seeds, rendering their Ninja Powers obsolete. Alpha 5 and Zordon created the armor to help the Rangers in battle against his enhanced Tengas. To power up the Metallic Armor the Rangers say "Metallic Armor, Power Up!" and it gave the Rangers enhanced attack power, and a reflective blast. It only appeared in five episodes. The Metallic Armor was lost when Master Vile used the Orb of Doom along with his own powers to turn back time to regress the Power Rangers back into Powerless kids and when Rita and Zedd destroyed the Ninja Power Coins forever, but only after Billy returned to his normal age by using a machine that needed the coins for a power source.
Metallic Armor[]
The Metallic Armor is used by Tommy Oliver, Katherine Hillard, Adam Park, Rocky DeSantos, Aisha Campbell, and Billy Cranston.

- Activation: "Metallic Armor, Power Up!"
- The Metallic Armor is special armor created for battling the new-and-improved Tenga Warriors. The power comes directly from the Morphing Grid and the armor cannot be used outside the Earth's atmosphere. It enhances the Rangers' speed, strength & resistance to injury or magic spells. It was given to the Rangers by Zordon after Master Vile had powered up the Tengas.
Notes[]
- The Metallic Armor is the Ranger costumes sewn with glittery metallic fabric, with the helmets coated in glittery to match.
- According to Karan Ashley, the Metallic Armor was originally supposed to be represented by the Ranger suits used in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, which were constructed of a PVC and metal plating. But because of how fragile and delicate those suits were, they had become so damaged after their use in the movie that using them proved to be an unviable option. Since the Metallic Armor Ranger toys were simply shiny metallic versions of the normal Ranger toys, glittery versions of the TV series Ranger suits were used for the Metallic Armor instead.[1]
- The core Rangers never used their weapons or Blade Blasters in conjunction with the Metallic Armor.
