VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Is VR Troopers In the PR multi-verse?

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Officially? I don't know.

I know a lot of folks myself included like to write stories where they are but that's it.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Its not impossible. But we can't say for sure since nothing on the show had ever pointed that out and nothing has been done with the property in decades. We do know Saban got the rights back in the Disney Purchase and therefore Hasbro now owns them ( ironically Hasbro owns Kenner, which did the toys). But the PR Multiverse concept does open.the door for this to become canon someday. I would say it would be more likely to happen in the Boom Comics.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

They could even say VR Teoopers happened in the main PRU if they want to.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

If Ninja Turtles can randomly show up in Space, VR Troopers could show up.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

That's why I always hoped that if Power Rangers ever adapted any Sentai stuff with the new Gavan I wanted him to be Ryan Steele's son who became a new VR Trooper.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

It would be cool if someone from the PRU came to the Crossworlds Universe ( seems like a good name for the Troopers Universe) and help the current generation of VR Troopers connect to the morphing grid..

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I don't think so. That series was its own thing.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I always found it odd how Tommy was originally supposed to play Ryan Steele, yet they didn't think to have it be a true spinoff with JDF as Tommy.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Actually he was going to play Adam Steele in the Cybertron Poilit that Fox rejected. Plans changed when they decided to keep JDF on PR. Cybertron became VR Troopers and eas syndicated. Adam Steel was changed to Ryan and played by Brad Hawkins.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Would have been a lot better. Perhaps the Tommy character would have remained good in a different setting. He already did everything on Power Rangers and it was time for him to go. I am surprised they didn't think of having JDF play Tommy on Cybertron.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Even if they did and kept JDF in the role, its unlikely they could have have Tommy Oliver in Cybertron/VR Troopers. Unless Fox approved the pilot.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

True Fox likely wouldn't have approved of them doing a PR spinoff off network.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Saban would have had the right to do so if they wanted. Its not like they didn't pitch to Fox first. Which is the common curtesy if not legally required.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

But it could have still pissed Fox off. But I don't think there waa any plans to have JDF play Tommy. Adam was likely supposed to be older, given how old Ryan was.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Yeah I still wish they had Jason David Frank as Tommy on VR Troopers, and had Brad Hawkins as Ryan Steele be the White Ranger.

But that's what fanfiction is for I guess.

Maybe they could have just made VR Troopers a Fox Kids show.

Then they could have had a block of all the Saban superhero shows.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

The original plan on Saban's side was for Cybertron to be a Fox Kids show. Fox said no because they didn't want to have too much of the same thing. That apparently changed by the time Masked Rider and Beetleborgs were created. But Saban did end up getting full control of Fox Kids by the end, so that could have played a role.

It was never the plan for the Tommy character to star in Cybertron. At least from what has been leaked. We can't say why they chose a new character. Perhaps they left it open for Tommy to still return to PR and not be saddled by whatever happened on Cybertron. Its not far fetched since Tommy was kept on MMPR ulitmately. So it stands to reason there was a lot in flux with JDF and his character's future on Power Rangers.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Tommy needed to return to MMPR to be with Kimberly! The only way Tommy in VR Troopers would have worked is if Kimberly followed him. The idea of using Adam Steele, was silly.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Yes, MMPR without Tommy staying wouldn't have been as fun. Especially since we ended up losing Jason, Trini, and Zack soon after.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Rocky could have been the White Ranger and led the team.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I would have had Adam become White Ranger and leader. They should have at least made him Red in real PR, so he could be second in command. At least they made him second in command in Zeo and Turbo.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Cybertron shold have stuck more closely to the source material and had Adam Steele be a full robot. Then they made it worse with the bastardized VR Troopers.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

For all we know Adam could have turned out to be some type of andriod. We only ever got a pilot teaser.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I doubt they would have went that route. But who knows?

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Cybertron never would have lasted long. They were much better off keeping JDF and Tommy on MMPR. The reworked VR Troopers Series had more staying power because they added in another Metal Hero's series to adapt. Unfortunatelly there wasn't any modern Metal Hero Series to adapt further. So even VR Troopers was only going to last so long.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I always thought VR Troopers should have moved to Fox Kids for season 3 and adapted the Beetle Metal Hero footage. It would have been perfect for VR Troopers. And easier to adapt then mismatching old metal hero shows. We could have got two more seasons of VR Troopers. They could have switched the toys to Bandai.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Whether Fox Kids picked up Cybertron or JDF stayed,,, I think the series would have been heavily reworked anyway. It was clearly in the early stages of development. I could see them still miss matching the Metal Hero series down the line. It made too much sense not to and really had nothing to do with Adam Steele or no Adam Steele.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I don't think we can say it takes place in the PRM unless something is every officially produced. Sadly, I don't think we will see more VR Troopers.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I don't think so. But if they wanted to they could change that. So its not like it can't be. I am not sure if they will do anything with VR anytime soon.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I would love if they made VR Troopers part of the multi-verse.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Its an interesting idea. I would love for Boom to make this happen.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I don't see the need for this. They are two different shows that just happen to be created by Saban Entertainment.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Not feeling it. There is no evidence to suggest they are part of the multi -verse.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I would like it to be personally . It would make perfect sense and would be easy to pull off. It wouldn't effect existing continuity since it would be an AU

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Its a good idea. But it can't be true until something happens.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

It would be a great fit.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

I think its better to keep it separate.

Re: VR Troopers In PR Multi-verse?
 

Sure, why not. I sure hope there is a universe with my Lady Katastrophe idea.
