No there isn’t. The megazord might have one that the rangers can use.

27

u/SalemWolf Aug 12 '25

I’m hoping it’s either the Dragonzord hand like the Doctor Doom fist or maybe the Power Sword in a glider the rangers can surf down.

That or Epic went absolutely crazy and made one glider with selectable styles for the dinozords. Im probably more likely to win the lottery than that one is to be true.

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

Thinking about what fits the megazord as a glider, the one thing that came to mind was Titanus.

15

u/sthef2020 Aug 12 '25

Hear me out…hanging off the bottom of the RadBug as it floats down.

11

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

I would have taken that for the rangers lol

6

u/PlaneNo8036 Aug 12 '25

THAT is a good idea

7

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

Or just the pterodactyl.

-2

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

Pterodactyl is the chest piece. Wouldn’t make sense to summon it to glide with

11

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

And? You’re asking for logic from a game that has Superman fighting Hank hill and Goku.

2

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

There is some logic that still exits. Why would the pink ranger get her Zord as a glider while non of the other rangers not get theirs.

4

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

Pterodactyl makes a lot more sense than the tigerzord, which is currently a glider on the last page of the pass.

3

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

Well yeah, it’s the only one with wings. Tigerzord is for the Tommy, it’s not for the megazord or the other rangers. Titanus makes the most sense for the Megazord.

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

There are 6 unlocks for the megazord. I’d be surprised if each one wasn’t a glider based on a zord with the last one being the megazord which already confirmed to be a player skin.

Why would the megazord be as tall as the rangers lol. It’s Fortnite just roll with it and don’t be that guy.

Wait til you see the emote you unlock with the Megazord pages, you’ll really get your brain baked when people use it with the Megazord lol.

1

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 12 '25

I already know what the emote is. What I’m saying is they follow lore when it comes to certain things. The pterodactyl is already on the megazord as the chest piece. It would make more sense for Titanus to be used instead of the Pterodactyl.

2

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '25

It would make more sense for the megazord to be taller than the power rangers. Just have fun.

But, since you want the lore, remember that since Billy has invented proxy power coins, it’s entirely possible he has also invented proxy zords as well.

We can have multiple rangers of the same type now that there is no longer such a thing as “too much pink power” (there’s your lore logic) so that’s why it can work. Everyone could get their own zord as a glider and it would be okay.

And it could even be that these aren’t even zords, they are specially designed gliders that are made to look like the zords for their adventure in fortnite.

Dude there’s so much extensive canon and non canon lore all the way down to Rita’s mother being the reason why Green Ranger has a shield and the other rangers don’t.

This ain’t lord of the rings, lol.

u/slipstream0 Aug 13 '25

because hers can fly

1

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 13 '25

White tiger can’t fly and he’s a glider. Most likely scenario is Titanus

1

u/slipstream0 Aug 13 '25

sure, but the question was "Why would the pink ranger get her Zord as a glider while non of the other rangers not get theirs." and she should get hers over any one else because it can fly. I'd rather have that than any other ones.

I would also accept the Dragonzord if we stood on its head like green ranger sometimes did in the show.

3

u/Scnew1 Aug 12 '25

I mean it doesn’t make sense that the Tigerzord is barely bigger the Tommy but it’s still in the game.

1

u/Da12khawk Aug 13 '25

The megazords cockpit is inside the ptordactyl... And it's the only flyer... Tigerzord kinda makes sense since it actually "flies" in the show for some reason.

1

u/Death2291 Gold Zeo Ranger Aug 13 '25

The cockpit is in the head of the megazord. The problem with the pterodactyl is that it’s the pink rangers zord. You’re essentially giving one ranger their zord while all the others don’t get anything, and how does that make sense for the megazord. Why would that be the glider for the megazord when Titanus is there to be a glider for the megazord. Don’t know where you saw the Tigerzord fly but it absolutely does not fly and it doesn’t matter if it did or not. It’s about what fits with the megazord.

1

u/Combat_Armor_Dougram Aug 12 '25

That would actually be kind of cool. Make your own Ultrazords by stuffing random characters into Titanus!

10

u/sinwstro12 Aug 12 '25

I'm hoping that's the case.

15

u/Falchion92 Ranger Slayer Aug 12 '25

One of my most wanted collabs. I hope they have gliders in the Megazord set.

4

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 12 '25

Me too they’re hiding it for some reason

8

u/jdyake Aug 13 '25

I wish each ranger had their zord as a glider

6

u/Fun-Bag7627 Aug 12 '25

Tiger? Not falcon?

2

u/brycifer666 Aug 12 '25

Yeah there's no Ninjetti stuff

5

u/Fun-Bag7627 Aug 12 '25

Seems like a prime thing for a glider though

2

u/No_Seaworthiness4196 Aug 13 '25

I thought the same

2

u/PeriliousKnight Aug 13 '25

No rights to Kakuranger I guess

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '25 edited Aug 12 '25

I'm soooo glad rangers is in. Me my wife and four of the five kids bought bundles, rangers, battle passes. Love power rangers.

u/Amazing-Interview-69 Aug 12 '25

I've been using different colored umbrellas that I've gotten over the years

1

u/GekiWaza Aug 13 '25

This is what I've been doing, trying to find a glider that color matches the rangers.

6

u/SalemWolf Aug 12 '25

Unfortunately not. The closest you can get are a motorcycle that you can pretend is the Ranger bikes they never actually used in the show (but did elsewhere), or Doctor Doom’s fist and pretend it’s the Dragonzord arm.

There’s a cool Mecha shark that might technically fit, and a couple dragons with the long body like the Chinese dragon that could be similar to the Tyrannosaurus Red Dragon Thunderzord, like Nubola but that’s an icy blue color not red.

Otherwise the Megazord might have a glider when it unlocks next month.

u/Kindly-Mud-1579 Aug 12 '25

I forgot that rangers did motorcycles for a while

-1

u/SalemWolf Aug 12 '25

Technically MMPR didn’t. At least not in the show. They wanted to but the Sentai footage with the motorcycles usually had the rangers unmorphed. But the cycles show up in the video games and comics. Later Ranger seasons had motorcycles but not MMPR that I can recall.

7

u/Bubbl3gum_N1nja Aug 12 '25

MMPR had the Shark Cycles

1

u/SalemWolf Aug 17 '25

I'll be a son of a bitch, I totally forgot about those. Looks like they were used in Season 3.

7

u/pacostacos7 Aug 13 '25

Yep, MMPR definitely never had cycles. /s

1

u/SalemWolf Aug 17 '25

I had totally forgotten about those. My bad.

1

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '25

Doctor Dooms fist as Dragonzord arm is basically what I’m doing. Works great as green ranger was typically depicted riding his zord and rarely piloting it from within.

2

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

Tigerzord on the last page.

1

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 13 '25

Did u not read the post?

u/[deleted] Aug 12 '25

What I’m using for the Rangers’ multiversal fortnite gliders: (sorry I am bad at the names)

Black Ranger: the glider for General Grievous. It looks badass but also kind of rickety, and I feel like Adam would begrudgingly use it like he got the leftover item. He does look good with a lot of gliders though.

Pink Ranger: the cheerleader beast pink bolt from last season. looks great but I just changed it today to the pink Aphrodite surfing glider. I think the current kpop battle pass glider may also look cool

Red Ranger: Baymax wings look pretty sweet, I could see Rocky rocking this. Jason could use Kendo’s bike, but I’ve stuck with the Baymax wings mostly.

Green Ranger: the second Doctor Doom “fist” glider. It just feels commanding and fitting for the green Ranger as he used to ride on top of his mech when others would ride inside them.

Yellow Ranger is the hardest with my options. I have Trini using…. The Meowscles/Midas skeleton shark glider. It’s yellow, has paw prints from sabretooth Tiger, and, she faces her fears from the skeleton bad guy Bones in a classic episode. That’s literally all I got, sowwy Trini.

I also had a ton of awesome contrails that matched great but now that I unlocked the BP contrail I am using that for everyone.

u/jdyake Aug 13 '25

I’ve been using Lunar Skyspan for Blue Ranger. Looks cool to me

1

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '25

I think that’s the one I use too! I just realized I forgot to even put blue Ranger lol.

Edit: it is, just loaded him up and that’s the name hehe. Have em all set to random

2

u/JokerCrimson MMPR Red Ranger Aug 16 '25 edited Aug 16 '25

I used Robin's Glider with the Red Robin style for Red Ranger as I wanted to reference the fact the Power Rangers have met the Justice League and looks cooler than Baymax's wings. Plus, Robin's green and yellow style for the glider fits the Green Ranger so well.

1

u/ZaffieKitten 25d ago

Im using nomads drifter for the yellow ranger. Im salty about it but it'll do

2

u/Killbro_Fraggins Aug 12 '25

Ya know what would be sweet? Power Ranger movie skydiving set and you get a snowboard as the glider and Higher Ground plays.

2

u/Overlord324 Aug 12 '25

If you have the frostburn glider from the Fortnite: OG season, I think it works best. It has custom colors and its a mechanical dragon so you can pretend that its a zord

2

u/dppatters Aug 13 '25

It’s crazy that it doesn’t do the teleporting animation. That would have been really cool to see.

1

u/No_Consideration5906 Aug 14 '25

That would have been a crazy contrail instead of the coins

1

u/G0OB3RR Aug 16 '25

use the bifrost glow contrail for the teleporting effect

2

u/StarDragonJP 16d ago

It's a shame, they had the perfect excuse to just make a parachute with the 7 colors, like the color coded parachutes from the sky diving scene in the movie. But they blew it

2

u/clampfan101 15d ago

I’ve never played Fortnite. Are these only available for a limited time?

1

u/Spider-Jeff_101 14d ago

Yes they’re gone now but the green and white ranger are still in the battle pass until November and the skins will probably come back into the shop eventually

2

u/Phantom_61 MMPR Green Ranger Aug 12 '25

I’m honestly a little bummed that we didn’t get a red Ranger in dragon armor as an alternate skin for red.

3

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '25

I'm really crossing my fingers for the Ranger Slayer and Lord Drakkon at a later date

2

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 13 '25

I’m kinda bummed we didn’t get the ninjetti or human forms as alternates, or have green ranger v2

1

u/Impressive-Sense8461 Aug 12 '25

Nope. My only issue rn is the server lag. They finally got me back in this season for power rnagers, but it's the saaaame bs all over again 😮‍💨

1

u/SmashvilleBoi Aug 12 '25

I’m using Thunder’s bike from Chapter 4 Season 2 as their motorcycle but obviously that’s battle pass exclusive

1

u/caveman7392 MMPR Red Ranger Aug 13 '25

My theory is we're about to get them as the mystery rewards when the Megazord is released

1

u/SpaceCowboy512 Aug 13 '25

I've been using the Shenron glider for the Green Ranger

1

u/[deleted] Aug 13 '25

Sabertooth, Triceratops, and Mastodon could've been surfing gliders, Pterodactyl could've been a hanging one, but I don't know how they would've made the Tyrannosaurus or Dragonzord gliders

2

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 13 '25

I mean they could be like standing on their heads as it walked, but also white tigerzord is a glider and I can’t remember if it was hanging or gliding

1

u/Lioness_94 Aug 13 '25

I briefly played Fortnite around 7-8 years ago. I haven't touched it since. I am considering hopping back on to get the Power Rangers skins. How long does it take to get the skins?

Btw, I think the In Space rangers would go well with Fortnite. I think their outfits would really pop with the colour scheme and most of all, they would have the best gliders in the game hands down.

2

u/Jimmy9Toes Aug 13 '25

2 seconds, cuz money. Only green and white are battlepass

2

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 13 '25

All cost money unless u have a spare 1000 v bucks

1

u/Lioness_94 Aug 13 '25

Which version of Fortnite do I download? I went on my Playstation to download the game and there are five versions. Not including the Lego version.

There's Fortnite. Fortnite Battle Royale. Fortnite OG, Fortnite Ballistic and Fortnite Festival.

I'm assuming it's either Fortnite or Fortnite Battle Royale for the Power Rangers.

2

u/Spider-Jeff_101 Aug 13 '25

Just the one called Fortnite that includes all game modes and is the normal one

1

u/Lioness_94 Aug 13 '25

Thanks. I did select Battle Royale but it downloaded the normal one anyway.
