Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Alpha 5 was just a tool for Zordon. He. had no emotional attachment to him . And was willing to sacrifice him if necessary. Since he could just replace him with Alpha 6. Its likely Alpha 5 was forced to sacrifice himself form Zordon on Eltar. Zordon never let him leave the Command Center. Even in emergencies when it could save his life. Even Hartford has much more regard for Mack. Not to mention actual effection.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's.friend
This is just absurd Zordon treated Alpha like family. He kept him in the Command Center to protect him. Zordon loved Alpha like a son. If anything happened to Alpha on Eltar Zordon would feel responsible. But it wouldn't be his fault. I think Alpha is still alive though.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's.friend
Amit said years ago that Alpha 5 died when Eltar fell. I don't think it had anything to do with Zordon sacrificing Alpha though. It was clear they were friends. Even if Alpha could be a little immature at times.

Zordon had no issue with Alpha leaving the Command Center it was Alpha's own choice of whether he wanted to stay there or not and he usually chose to stay. Zordon was only upset with Alpha leaving the base in "The Wannabe Ranger" since no one was there to monitor for problems with Zordon powered down and Alpha being outside. Quote:

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's.friend
But its never been contradicted. Tommy used Alpha 7 in "Forever Red". Who had the same exact voice as Five. Wouldn't he have just used Alpha 5 if he was alive?

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's.friend
Thats because Alpha 5 was too busy on Eltar. Or lerhaps went back to Edenoi.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Edenoi was destroyed shortly after Dex left. It was cut from "Friend In Need". The Masked Rider TV show is actually a fictionalized version of Dex's life. This is why Nadiera is able to watch scenes from Mask Rider in TF. Dex defeated Dragon and went on to get his own TV show afterwards.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
I would take Amit's word of god over any writer. Amit is the best writer we ever had. Its a shame he didn't get to stick around longer. I can't believe Saban Brands didn't do anything with his excellent pitch for Samurai

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Zordon and Alpha had a business relationship. There was no friendship involved. The same was true for the Rangers.
|
Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Zordon acted like a concerned parent in the episode with Primator. I think he treated Alpha like a son.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Zordon and Alpha were always kind of lame to me. I don't really care about them to be honest. I am glad they were phased out of the show.
|
Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
I think the relationship was more complicated than the thread starter is givening them credit for. Lets notnl forget that they are both from other societies. So we can't judge them based on human relationships. I do think they cared for each other in some sense. They were together for 10,000 years or more.

Saban was just too cheap to shoot a generic family scene for Nadiera to watch or pay of an exisiting one not invovled with the PRU.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
I think Dex was outed at some point, as well as his family. Persumable after the battle with Dex was over. He then made a biopic on his life , starring his real adopted family.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
His identity still could have been secretm It could have been a show based on his family life with no reference to his actual Mask Rider exploits.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
I don't think Zordon is as nefarious as some of his critics around here have been saying. While I do think Zordon had a lot of complicated plans and stratagies...I also believe he cared about the Rangers. And as an extension cared about Alpha. They were a duo for a very long time.

Re: Alpha was not Zordon's friend
Zordon was cold hearted. He wasn't a great mentor like Sensei.

We don't know what happened that lead to him leaving but I'm not surprise they didn't like the Samurai pitch since that would have required a lot of original footage which they weren't willing to pay for. Quote:
