"ValveMax Megazord!"
Ziggy Grover & Dillon

The ValveMax Megazord is the combined form of the Zord Attack Vehicles used by the Green and Black Ranger Operators.

Overview[]

It has a blaster for a right arm and a spinning slashing blade for a left arm. It can fire lasers to blast enemies and use the Tailspin to blow them away.

The Megazord's finisher is the Triple Strike where the Megazord energizes its arms and the mouth on its chest to perform two slashes and then chomp down on the Attack Bot with enough force to obliterate them on contact. During the battle against the Generation 12 Attack Bot, after it used its energy absorbing powers to take out the other Megazords, an alternate configuration by Doctor K instead has the mouth fire a sustained stream of energy long enough to obliterate the Attack Bot from energy overload.

This is one of two Megazords that isn't deleted by the Venjix Virus.

Appearances: RPM Episodes 7, 9-11, 14, 16, 19, 21-22, 24, 26, 28, 30

Zords[]

Tail Spinner[]

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Engine Birca

The Tail Spinner is Ziggy Grover's Zord Attack Vehicle numbered 4 which is a hybrid of a motorcycle and a shark. Its tail forms a blade and its body can deliver a Tailspin to attack enemies. The eyes of the Zord are actually Optical Field Scanning Sensors and its engine is the Ravoli 380.

It forms the left arm of the ValveMax, Zenith, and SkyRev Megazords and is the stored in the left foot of the RPM Ultrazord.

Appearances: RPM Episodes 5-7, 10-12, 14, 20, 22, 24, 26-28, 30


Wolf Cruiser[]

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Engine Gunpherd

The Wolf Cruiser is Dillon's Zord Attack Vehicle numbered 5 which is a hybrid of a police formula race car and wolf. The eyes of the Zord are actually Optical Field Scanning Sensors, it has the 105 cm Mk.III in its nose, and its engine is the R3M4.

It forms the right arm of the ValveMax, Zenith, and SkyRev Megazords and is stored in the right foot of the RPM Ultrazord.

Appearances: RPM Episodes 5-8, 10-12, 14, 20, 22, 24, 26-28, 30


Croc Carrier[]

The Croc Carrierzord, usually simply called the Croc Carrier, is Ziggy and Dillon's remote Zord Attack Vehicle numbered 6 which is a hybrid of a crocodile and trailer vehicle. The Zord is divided in half while in storage and each of the Rangers have Engine Cells for their halves of the Zord. It can carry two or three smaller Zord Attack Vehicles on its back and be used as a ramp. It is the second unmanned/remote Zord Attack Vehicle and utilizes the Remote Flux Overthruster Core Reactor to function properly. The eyes of the Zord are actually Optical Field Scanning Sensors. When first created, its engine is the Brown B-8 which the Lion Hauler has; it is upgraded into the HY-2 for more horsepower.

It forms the body, legs, and head of the ValveMax Megazord, feet and helmet of the Zenith Megazord, and feet of the SkyRev Megazord and RPM Ultrazord with the helmet of the Zenith Megazord being used for the Skyrev Megazord and the Ultrazord.

Appearances: RPM Episodes 7, 10-12, 14, 20, 24, 26-28, 30


Additional Formations[]

Zenith Megazord[]

Blue Glass Arrow See also: Engine-Oh G6

The Zenith Megazord is the combination of the High Octane and ValveMax Megazords or the first six Zord Attack Vehicles when the Ranger Operators modify the Croc Carrier for new formations. It first required a second Flux Overthruster to provide the energy necessary for this formation. Aside from being equipped with Equilibrium and Horizon-Line Sensitivity, its techniques are a double-foot kick, super speed, and laser blasts. Its finisher involves firing the energy constructs of its components at an enemy through the Rangers using their Wheel Blasters.

Appearances: RPM Episodes 11-14, 17


ValveMax Megazord with Falcon Chopper[]

The ValveMax Megazord once used the Falcon Chopper in place of the Tail Spinner. This was only used in the Zord battle against Kilobyte since Ziggy was busy battling Tenaya and defending Fresno Bob.

Behind the Scenes[]

Portrayal[]

Design[]

Etymology[]

  • With the show's focus on high-performance vehicles, the name of this Megazord is a reference to the valves of an engine. These valves act as mechanical flow control of fuel, air, and other engine fluids that mix together during operation.

Notes[]

  • The Megazord has also been referred to as the Velocimax Megazord in the toyline.
Retrofire-rpmvm

The ValveMax Megazord in Retrofire style.

  • Bandai America released their own version as the deluxe version differing in many ways from the show and Bandai Japan release.
    • A Retrofire Megazords version was also released, aside from all the other RPM Megazords in the new stylized motif. RPM is the only series with more than one Megazord, and a complete set at that.
    • A Micro Zords version was also released which included a bonus Zord.
  • Unlike its counterpart, Tail Spinner is based on a shark instead of an orca. The reason for this change is unknown, though this change is factually erroneous as Tail Spinner’s tail is horizontal like an orca whereas sharks have vertical tails instead. The orca is also a mammal whereas the shark is a fish.
