Description I've been wanting to do a sort of makeover on the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers/Zyuranger suits for some time. Tried looking at all kinds of movie suits for inspiration and how to mesh the designs together. I saw some photoshops of the Red Ranger on the GI Joe film armor, and on the Nolan Batman suits, but I wanted to try to do something I hadn't seen before. Nothing really clicked or had me excited to make the new look until I saw the new Tron:Legacy movie. Yes, I know, it's been out for close to a year, but I never saw it until this past week.

So this is the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers/Zyuranger suits in a Tron style. I say MMPR first because of the yellow female suit rather than the male in Zyuranger. The basic Tron armor suit is taken from Sam Flynn's suit. Then the bulk of the 'light' designs are meant to look like the original ranger suits with some Tron lines in there as well. I decided to go very minimal on the helmets because the helmets in Tron:Legacy are pretty basic and black. The rangers retain a visor shape similar to (not 100% exactly the same) as the original ranger suits. The helmets also have some remnant of a design from the original helmets as well, but no eyes or protrusions like ears or horns.

I also messed around with some settings in a program in an attempt to make the colors really look like they were lit. Black's light color is more violet, because in Super Sentai and PR, it always seems like black rangers get a violet glow when they transform and stuff. It took a lot of tinkering but I'm fairly happy with this result. I would love some feedback on that particular aspect or advice on how to make it look more lit-up.

**Edited on the 1 Year Anniversary to include the White Power Ranger. Additionally, I've changed the Green Ranger slightly to have different, more triangular cuffs, rather than the diamond shape of the core five.**

Everything here is my hard work. Please don't touch anything without permission. Thanks.

I have to admit the Black ranger is hard to do when it comes to lighting because there is no luminous equivalent to black

Which is why black rangers typically have some deep violet/purple lighting effect.
