Why are Power Rangers included? It literally says in the article that the toys are based on the shows.

Wish they would have stayed with the previous reboot the 2017 one was actually surprisingly good, I really enjoyed a lot about it

I scratched my head, but after looking again, I think Power Rangers have action figures and sets from Bandai and Hasbro that have never appeared on the show. Netflix is pulling from concepts outside of the ongoing TV series for inspiration so it's inspired from the toys as well as other aspects of the media franchise.

Power Rangers lore runs deeper than I thought!

Don't Feel Bad, my source is "The Toys That Made Us" on Netflix. I found out how serious the franchise was from that. I grew up on Mighty Morphin', Zeo and Turbo. I stopped after that.

Except the toys are just from the show? There's nothing to be inspired from from the toys, there's no standalone Power Ranger toy content.

It’s a common mistake: the toys are based on the shows that are based on toys based on shows
