Icon-kyoryugerThis article is about a zord in Power Rangers Dino Super Charge.

The Spino Zord is a Zord/Megazord in Dino Super Charge. Unlike the other Dino Charge Zords, this Zord is associated with Keeper's staff instead of an Energem.

Overview[]

The Spino Zord is a navy and yellow Spinosaurus that was created by Shelby with the help of Zenowing. When entering Battle Mode, the boomerang that would form one of the Spino Charge Megazord's weapons pops up from within the Spino Zord's tail. He is bonded to Keeper.

The Spino Zord can combine with Ankylo Zord and Pachy Zord to form the Spino Charge Megazord, becoming its torso, head, legs, and weapons. As demonstrated in "Edge of Extinction", the Spino Zord can initiate his own formation without the Rangers' help and force a Spino Charge Megazord formation simply by headbutting a three-formation Megazord and taking over the main formation (eg. in this case, he ejected the Ptera Zord from Ptera Charge Megazord Para-Raptor Formation and took over as Spino Charge Megazord Para-Raptor Formation).

Appearances: DSC Episodes 18, 19

History[]

Spino Zord's Birth

The creation of the Spino Zord.

After Badussa managed to turn seven of the ten Rangers into stone, Shelby, James, and Phillip realized that the only way they'd be safe from Badussa's amulet is inside a Megazord. Since the three Rangers' Zords weren't able to combine into a Megazord on their own and the other Zords were unavailable, they knew that they needed to create a new Zord that could be used with the remaining ones to form a new Megazord.

Under Zenowing's advice, Shelby created the Spino Zord using dinosaur bones from a Spinosaurus for its body, metal for its armor, and crystals to give it strength and speed, all within a geode that served as a harmonic echo chamber, very much like the base's Energem bay, to incubate the new Zord. Shelby then asked Keeper to complete it by infusing the new Zord with his warrior's spirit, which he did, causing the egg to melt its way into the ground. It soon hatched into the Spino Zord to battle Badussa and formed the Spino Charge Megazord for the first time.

Spino Charge Megazord Ankylo-Pachy Formation[]

The initial "default" form is the Ankylo-Pachy Formation, with the Ankylo Zord forming the right arm and the Pachy Zord forming the left arm.

The formation's primary weapons are the Spino Boomerang and the Spino Defender, both formed from the Spino Zord's sail, and its special attacks include the Ankylo Zord Hammer Punch and Pachy Zord Wrecking Ball. It can also fire a salvo of laser blasts like a Gatling gun from the Spino Zord's head on its shoulder and its finishing attack is the Spino Boomerang Whirlwind Finish where Spino Charge Megazord hurtles the Spino Boomerang at the opponent before spinning around them like a top and repeatedly striking them with the Ankylo Zord Hammer Punch and Pachy Zord Wrecking Ball.

Appearances: DSC Episodes 18, 19


Additional Formations[]

Spino Charge Megazord Para-Raptor Formation[]

The Spino Charge Megazord Para-Raptor Formation is the combination of the Spino Zord, Para Zord, and Raptor Zord. The Spino Zord forced himself to combine by ejecting the Ptera Zord via a headbutt and took over his position.

It performed a finishing attack where it creates an orb that is shot from the Para Zord's tail gun before locking the opponent inside the enlarged orb and performing a slashing attack with the Raptor Zord's tail blades.

Appearances: This combination is exclusive to DSC Episode 19.

Notes[]

  • Its creation sheds some light on how Zenowing made the other Zords, which shows that they are biomechanical; they are incubated along with special materials like metal to create a Dino Zord.
  • Unlike its Sentai counterpart, the Spino Zord is never seen associated with the prime universe version of Heckyl, who ultimately becomes the Deathryuger-adapted Dark Ranger in Power Rangers Cosmic Fury. Inversely, a recreation of the Zord is summoned via Solarix energy in the Boom Studios! comics timeline for that version's Heckyl's use.
  • The DX Dino Charge Morpher contains a sound for a "Talon Ranger" when the Spino Zord's associated Dino Charger +00 is inserted into the Morpher, indicating that there were plans to adapt Deathryuger from the film Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger: Gaburincho of Music into the series. This was confirmed by Hasbro brand manager Jason Bischoff, who noted that it ultimately did not happen because licensing was not received in time,[1] with producer Simon Bennett later affirming this as true as Hasbro ultimately received Deathryuger's suit and properly adapted it as the Dark Ranger for Cosmic Fury.
    • According to Yoshi Sudarso, the name "Talon" was originally intended to be a placeholder name for Zenowing and stated that Deathryuger was never being planned for adaptation at all.
