Deluxe Astro Megazord 1998 review (Power Rangers in Space Season 6)
Ойын-сауық
In Power Rangers' sixth season, the team headed into space in search of help. The show needed help too, and boy did they find it. In a heavily serialised saga that lifted heavily from existing popular space content, the Zords themselves were based in outer space too.
Astro Megazord was a new concept for the show: a main megazord only made up of a shuttle and a ship. It’s a fun one and I enjoy the transformation.

Where to buy it
At the moment whether you want 1997 Denji Sentai Megaranger DX Galaxy mega from Megaranger, or 1998 Deluxe Astro Megazord from Power Rangers, you'll need to look online or at cons for either a 2nd hand or (expensive) mint in box version. Good luck!

Oh boy this video is going to need a revisit next year with ZAP on the way.
One difference between between the JP version and the US version is that the US version had glittery blue plastic where as the JP version had plane blue plastic. JP chrome was also more silver instead of it being more reflective in the chrome in the US.

Thanks man I didn't know this
I grew up with a blank and gold version of this. Loved it as a kid and still have mine in very good condition. Probably my favorite zord in the series.
That's the only megazord I ever had! My parents bought it for me when it came out, I remember being so excited. I loved the darn thing so much, I was devastated when my parents gave it away to the next door neighbors, two years later and bought me a "newer toy". Thank you for this video, It brought back a ton of memories!
100% Agree that In Space saved Power Rangers. Too much change in Turbo and not in a good way. It also gave the "new" Rangers cast a fresh start. This is one of the BEST zords ever. Let's face it how many times do the rangers EVER use the individual Zords - maybe ONCE per SEASON? They always just combine right away - this design made so much sense. This was the Millennium Falcon for Power Rangers
Mmpr came out when I was 13. Thats one secret you kept to yourself back in the 90's
One day there has to be a Legacy Astro Megazord with updated features and chrome metal detailing 😍😍😍

I was so happy recently to find the Sentai release of this guy, 100% complete, on EBay for a good price, to replace mine from when I was a kid, lost in a storage unit robbery. It doesn't have any clip or port issues, and while I would really like someone like toyhax to release a sticker set for it, the decals are pretty okay. Awesome review as always. I can't wait for the other In Space toys.

Seriously waiting for a Chogokin or Lighting Collection version of the Astro Megazord. Never had the original but always loved the Design
Your story about giving up on Turbo and coming back from Space is EXACTLY the same as mine, I was also in 5th grade when it came out. I also went out and got all the Zords from the season except for the elusive Delta >:( My Mega Voyager recently gave up the ghost, mega V1 disintegrated. :(

@@powerrangertube Always a shame when megazords are like that. Been having second thoughts about getting the lifeforce megazord from lightspeed because of the clip issue on the red ranger zord, I'd hate to spend so much money on a japan only megazord only to have it break on me.
I remember how excited I was when I first got this megazord for christmas. In space had actually not even come out yet and all I could do was speculate on what what happened in the show. Seeing a megazord that didn't come apart and just turned into a giant awesome ship, blew me away as a kid.
Still one of my favorite Megazords to this day, perhaps one season we will get another 2 combiner Megazord as great. Also In Space is my favorite PR series.
Probably my favourite Megazord that doesn't seperate into smaller zords.

i guess technically he does but is the smaller shuttle called a zord?
I had one of these and I remember loving it. The minipla is also really solid for a model kit.
This is the last megazord I vividly remember. Man this video brought back so many memories. Toys used to be so great back in the day.
I just finished binging all your videos when this came out.

@@powerrangertube Hey can you maybe make a review of the time force zords.
This was my favorite toy as a child. But it also was deeply sad part of my life. My father was abusive and after only a few months of owning this toy he threw it against the wall and broke it out of anger. I love and I hate sentai toys now. This Toy was important to me. It was my prized possession as a kid. Thanks for talking about it. I don't know if I'll ever own one again. But I still love the concept of power rangers.
This was the last series I watched regularly as a kid. I was so jealous when my buddy got this megazord
Great review as always, Ryan, keep up the awesome!
Power rangers in space was the second power rangers series that I grew up with
I literally just started to rewatch this with my son, and both of us rocked out to the theam song.
Yeah Space hooked me back in again after I had drifted away during Turbo. I then stayed a regular watcher till end of Lost Galaxy. Had stopped getting merch though.
I think the visible hands are accurate to the show
I've not seen much of Megaranger so I don't know how the tones of the shows compare. Would you live on the Astro Megaship? I would
Time to watch this on repeat at least ten times.
Great video, The Astro Megazord is one of my favorite megazords.
I remeber I got this toy for Xmas in like 98. Such a great toy that I miss. Such a unique design for a megazord as it also was their home base.

I love this Zord largely for being a headmaster transformer and as well as a megazord,it’s great we’re getting one again in Dino fury as I loved it In ryusoulger,btw shame that the customs made you get rid of the boxes.
this is one I remember as a small child
I was wondering when the Power Rangers megazord revisits would be coming back.
PR Fan: In space in the best season of the Zordon era! Ninja Turtles Next Mutation: ArE yOu SuRe AbOuT ThAt?! PR Fan: [Show the best moments of In Space] Yup! I mostly know Power rangers in detail because of Linkara. At least, I can see the series on Netflix.
Re: sticker grip, I've found that using a tiiiiiiny amount of superglue on the underside of the sticker does the trick. It's fixed the wrists of my Dino Megazords.

My favorite toy of my favorite megazord from my favorite post MMPR show. Have the black and gold version. When the ship was destroyed in Lost Galaxy, it felt like losing the Enterprise.
I can to wait to hear your thoughts on Lost Galaxy and its zords.
That "explosion" sound that you credited sounds more to me like it's supposed to be the megazord taking a step, which is probably why you're supposed to hold it down and let it play on repeat, to emulate it stomping around whatever city they're saving that day

So glad you posted today!
What U like about this toy is that it is the only one that seemingly fits in a Transformers Power Rangers Crossover Fantasy Play Session, Not only it Resembles More of a Transformer than the other Megazords because of it being only a 2 piece Megazord but also because it's Color is more Consistent than other Megazords but it at least for me anyways it Transforms Like a Transformer because of the reasons I have Mentioned. And as for the show it is the only Power Ranger Show that I could Remember Not Using Bikes Instead they Used Some kind of Space Boards, and as soon as I saw that I wonder would they Crossover with the Ninja Turtles, and of course at the time I didn't think that they would actually do it, but they did. But also it is the First show to have Evil Power Rangers in this Level of Caliber.

Loved the astro megazord! And I had the mega winger as well. I never got to complete the set with delta megazord and mega voyager.
Can’t go wrong with a big blue robo.
9:33,that's the mecha gattai sound effect where a robot combines. It's common in the mecha anime genre if you know your Getter Robo and Golion and all that. 11:25,if you're reviewing this guy..be sure to point out it looks like Fitor from Gobots: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aHmty6SHYsvRhKw.html
Always wanted this toy was never sold in my area, luckily some years later in a store that sold bootleg toys, found a white and grey ko version of the Megazord , still have those , got the official one years later
Power rangers in space came out when I was born
Ill be getting the zap one for sure. I hope it looks as good as the original or even better
I fucken loved this toy even before I knew wtf a power rangers was
Hello I am from NC and I just started watching your videos.
I like how it looks like it has USB drives on the back.
Spd is when power rangers went down the shitter. They made a comeback with time force kinda.
I used to rush home after school just to watch power rangers and I was in High School
Greetings from México, love your videos

Lucky enough Saban mistook the theme as Megaranger is actually video game theme
The stomping sounds was used in Gundam... also Bandai

If you love power rangers in space get the mini pla it's cheap compared to the original Megazord.
i've been thinking whether i should buy the mini-pla version of it since it has more articulation
I had this thing but it died. R.I.P

It looks like all those minor accessories, the boosters and mini cannons, we the 3d printed ones similar to Etsy, and not the one's that came with the zord. Am I right to say so? Cuz I dont see u mentioning it in the video. Either that or you've kept them in very pristine condition.

Sorry I love PR but PR in space most of the megazords reminds me too much like transformers, instead of 5 smaller zords they just transformed from alt mode to robot

Yeah as DJ and Sega Sky suggest, I just find the daylight floods the toy better than artificial can. I don't have a studio so I wouldn't be able to spread them out as evenly. And my camera isn't as good on artificial light.
