Why didn't Andros have a full team?

[Starlight Starbrite]

Andros was supposed to recruit new Rangers but didn't want to. Also the exta Rangers weren't needed until after KO35 was conquered.

We don't know when Andros got the extra morphers. It could have been shortly before he met the Turbos.

It was surprising at the time. Since we were used to Ranger powers being found or earned at the time. Even with the Turbo Powers being made on the fly. But it was a cool moment when Andros handed him the morphers. So it worked out .

Its likely KO35 had a full team of Rangers at some point. Its unclear if Andros and Zhane fought with a whole team before Space. We didn't see any indication in the flashbacks to Specter's attack. Plus it seemed like Zhane and Andros were a duo. Of course it is possible Andros didn't mention them like he failed to talk about Zhane while he was hurt. It certainly would have added to Andros reluctance to work as a team. But at the same time Andros didn't feel like someone that worked with a full team before he joined up with the Turbos. So it could go either way.

[Captain Codfish]

There probably was a full Ranger team at some point. Perhaps when Karone and Andros were children. Since Andros brings up how they both wanted to be Power Rangers back then.

[Ranger Master]

KO 35 was a colony started by Zordon as a military operation. Andros and Karone were being trained to be Power Rangers. Everyone else who wasn't a Ranger canidate was there to be military. Its possible the other canidates were abducted like Karone or eliminated ar some point before Andros/Zhane. K035 was under constant attack and decimated by UAE incursions before it finally fell.

[Ranger Master]

Its likely Zordon's final plan for Earth would have been to set up several Earth colonies of the same ilk and the same purpose. The KO mother planet was just at a more advantaged stage. Earth never got the chance due to the UAE finding out about Zordon's survival and the esclation of the conflict that led to C2D.

[Quasar Saber]

You could argue that SPD took that plan and reimagined it at a mucb grander scale. Hexagon took advantage of the fall of the UAE and SPD was the result. Also as a reaction to the chaos losing Zordon and Specter caused.

[Ranger Master]

Good Point. SPD in a lot of ways was Zordon's dream scenario. And I could see where it would have been ultimate end game. It would have taking him a lot longer to get there if he survived and the cold war just dcontinued.

[Space Hero]

Andros and Zhane probably found the morphers on their own and didn't have time to recruit a full team. And by the time Andros did he didn't want to work with anyone. Of course Zordon knew better.

[SPD Emergency]

Its likely that the last surviving members of the previous team gave Andros and Zhane there powers. Who didn't recruit anyone else to be Rangers.
