Morphin’ Legacy Origins
Morphin’ Legacy started in 2010 because I was so upset about the 2010 Reversion that I had to have somewhere to vent! I started on a small blogspot and began to learn what I know today with the blog and eventually what would become our Legacy Databases.
The news spread that Saban Brands had reacquired Power Rangers, and the site and blog took off from there! Eventually, we spread throughout the web and found Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter! Our YouTube boasts over 1.97 Million Subscribers! Once upon a time, I applied and was accepted into the Power Force and have enjoyed every moment of it!
Today, we host some of the most up-to-date, intricate and comprehensive information from the Power Rangers Universe in our Legacy Databases! Not to mention bringing you the most relevant and up-to-date news regarding the new seasons, toys, and more with a dash of Nostalgiaganza!

“Why The Deer Zord?”
I get this question a lot! Back during our weekly TinyChats, one of our admins, thebubbledragon, would laugh whenever I played “The Song of Animaria” from Power Rangers Wild Force. As each week went on, I specifically played that song during our chats as kind of a joke to make them laugh. Eventually, it became a running gag that we would pay homage to the Deer Zord by holding up lighters, phones, or toys when the song would play.
A few months later, I got myself a Deer Zord toy. He quickly found his way into my icons, cover photos, and even PMC t-shirts! I decided that the Deer Zord should be our mascot, and he has been ever since! Now you can find him in just about every aspect of our site and brand!
The Deer Zord was not the kind of Zord to simply help the Rangers; they had to earn his help! This is one of the many reasons why we love him here at Morphin’ Legacy! Not to mention his awesome Bubble Power!
We were also graced with a magical meeting with Princess Shayla herself, Ann Marie Crouch, at Power Morphicon 5! She amazed us with a short but iconic performance of the song!
