Power Rangers Zeo was a programme I watched as a child. My brother liked it more than I did growing up as it was a programme geared more toward boys at the time. As an adult I rewatch it many times and I really enjoy it. I don't like it as much as MMPR though. My favourite characters would have to be Tommy and Katherine much for the same reasons as I liked Tommy and Kimberly in MMPR. the vehicles that the Power Rangers used in this season were the:
- Zeo Jet cycles. They were very similar to the shark cycles from MMPR I did a post on the shark cycles and other vehicles from MMPR which can be viewed here. The Jet Cycles were owned as follows:
Pink (Katherine) had the Zeo Jet Cycle I
Yellow (Tanya) had the Zeo Jet Cycle II
Blue (Rocky) had the Zeo Jet Cycle III
Green (Adam) had the Zeo Jet Cycle IV
Red (Tommy) had the Zeo Jet Cycle V
The designs were unique to each Power Ranger. They were created by Billy and Alpha 5. Billy was the Blue Ranger in MMPR but handed over his Powers to Rocky in Zeo. He mostly worked in the Command Centre with Zordon and Alpha. He was into science and building things so he helped the rangers in that way. The Jet Cycles are very similar to a motorcycle with each representing the colours of the power rangers that would be controlling them.
Fun Fact: The Gold ranger Version was released as a toy to be sold to kids but it never appeared in any Power Rangers Zeo episodes. The Gold Ranger was originally Trey of Triforia but Jason came back to take over after Trey of Triforia released their powers to him. Billy was going to be the Gold Ranger but his body rejected the powers. In the Japanese Sentai version of Power Rangers Zeo, which was called Ohranger, the jet cycles were called Jetter Machines.
- The Defender Wheel: This was again developed by Billy and Alpha 5. When not in use it was stored in Zeo Zord V. It was operated by Tommy. When Tommy was inside it it generated powerful energy that defeated normal sized monsters. Rocky operated it one time and defeated a monster. It looks like a powerful giant wheel
Fun Fact: When Rocky used it to destroy a monster called Defector, it was the only time it destroyed a monster. In the Japanese Sentai version of Power Rangers Zeo it was called Giant Roller
