"Rumble Tusk Zord! Out of the Shadows!"

―Summoning announcment^[src]

The Rumble Tusk Zord is an elephant-based auxiliary Zord.

Overview

Rumble Tusk is the first auxiliary Zord to be born out of the Ninja Nexus Prism when Mick threw in a Ninja Star at its vision of an elephant herd, creating the Rumble Tusk Zord Star as a result. When summoned, it arrives riding on a giant round boulder, mimicking a circus elephant. In this form, the Rumble Tusk Zord can fire a blast of air from its trunk as well as using its trunk to perform a vacuum cleaner attack which it used to suck up Tangleweb's webbing which the Rangers' Zords have been bound in.

Etymology

• The word "rumble" suggests the powerful, thunderous presence of an elephant, while "tusk" refers to the elephant's tusks, which are a prominent feature of the Zord.

Rumble Tusk Zord Star

This Zord Star is marked with the kanji for "elephant" (象, Zō). Its primary use is to summon the Rumble Tusk Zord, as well as completing the helmet for the Rumble Tusk Ninja Steel Megazord.

Notes
