An explanation for there two sets of Power Coins: Somebody made his homework. I love they remembered the detail about "duplicated powers can be dangerous".

Nice clip and a nice reason for powers. Though rocky in 25th used mm red then and Jason using red in beast morphers. I would have just gone with the reasoning sential knight fixed powers or what not like when Adam came in 15th. But always nice to have a reason.
DiD was part of a Ninja-themed season. Like iceranger said - they used the Rangers that fit into the season's theme somehow.
Tommy, Rocky and Kat were in MMPR S3 when the MMs had Ninja Coins. So it makes sense for them to be there. It wouldn't make sense if none of the MM Rangers wasn't using a set of powers that wasn't Ninja-powered. Rocky does use his Ape Ninjazord summon pose in the awfully fast roll-call. MMPR is represented by 3 Rangers in the episode, even though 2 of them are aslo using non-MM-based Ranger powers.
Jason was clearly using his Dino Coin in GD. He still had it somehow as he probably kept it since the events in Forever Red.By seeing the clip, it is clear that Jason, Trini and Zack were still in posession of their power coins post-Power Transfer. Which means that Rocky, Adam and Aisha were already using some sort of backup coins back in S2. Since Sentinel Knight restored Adam's Power Coin in OaR, we can just assume he did the same for Aisha's, Rocky's, Billy's, Kimberly's and Tommy's. Either that or some of the MM rangers have been doing a "find Ninjor and have him restore our powers" homework.
It's nice from the writer's side to acknowledge the duplicate powers stuff. It's a nice touch.

I just meant rocky using mm red powers vs say zeo blue powers. But ya it's nice they trying to explain things.

I don't think there's much energy in the directing so far, and the score, even by Ron, is a little on the weak side.

Advance reviews are already starting to show up on Youtube, some, like IGN, don't go into specifics, but youtuber Airlim's review spoils the entire special.

The cockpit looks great, way better than the "standing" cockpits of recent seasons, which I find boring. (side rant, I really start to hate those cockpits, without personality, all the same, just the symbol, ugh. I know the budget can't make a great cockpit like Kingohger's one, or even a Zenkaiger, but, gosh, standing cockpits are terrrible.) I know Blue is gonna be center, because David Yost returning, probably he's gonna be one of the two main lead. I would like some explanation, of he being the leader, over Rocky, because seniority, or probably because he's more familiar with the OG Megazord, instead Rocky, who piloted the Thunder Megazord, but alas.... I can't wait.

So, the special is really good. Nostalgic. But it hits the right buttons. It reminds me of what they are doing right now with Picard season 3....and the return of the TNG cast and the Enterprise D. It's not perfect, but waaaaaaaay better of what I was expecting it.

Did anyone else cry when the core team morphed(Minh as Yellow)? I loved the special. I also loved that they made Billy's last name finally canon!

I didn't cry, but I have a stupid smile during the whole time.
