[edit] Controversy
Bandai[1] released several Shark Ranger figures in the Jungle Fury toyline meant to serve as pilot to the Roar Max Zords. It then became quite a controversial debate whether or not they would appear in the show.
The comic that goes with the figures states that the Masters were rangers 20 years ago and are now inhabiting beast bodies. In the comic they are now training the Jungle Fury rangers in place of their masters in the show, though in appearance they resemble the Kensei from Juken Sentai Gekiranger, the source material of Jungle Fury.[2]
When the Shark, Elephant and Bat zords appeared in Power Rangers Jungle Fury without rangers piloting them, it became apparent that there would indeed be no rangers outside of those seen in Gekiranger, the show's Japanese counterpart. However, months later Terebi Kun, a Japanese magazine published photos in two consecutive issues with all three rangers in Jungle Master Mode outfits. Soon, summaries that support the photos appeared, beginning with that for Fear and the Phantoms.
