500-TPRM
The teens, or at least
Tommy and Kat, seemed to
be familiar with the Power Boxes, though
they hadn't been shown before.
When Zordon told Tommy and Kat to equip themselves with the Power Boxes, the
eastern Power Chamber doors opened to reveal a closet-sized
area containing the five Power Boxes on the
wall, with green, pink, and red on the top row, and yellow and blue on
the bottom row; these doors were
not, however, supposed to lead into a closet, but rather a hallway.
Alpha said that the
short-range locators (later called Turbo Navigators) in the Power Boxes
would lead Tommy and Kat
straight to Lerigot.
The Power Boxes were worn like backpacks.
In the jungle, Tommy offered Kat some water
from his Power Box, and she pushed in a gray circle about the size of a
silver dollar, in the upper right corner of the back of Tommy's Power Box; a tiny canteen, barely long
enough for Kat to get all of her fingers around,
popped out, and after Kat had drunk from it, she
handed it to Tommy, who drank some as well; the
mini-canteen, however, was much to small to contain any decent amount of
water.
As he and Kat swam through
rapids, Tommy pushed the left side of a small
black rectangle to the left of the canteen circle on Kat's Power Box; a small
orange neck floatation device popped up from the water, and he put it
over her head.
The floatation
device vanished from Kat's neck between shots as
she and Tommy were getting out of the water.
After driving up to the Ghost Galleon's dock and getting out of
their Turbozords, the four teens held lantern-like flashlights which may have
been a part of the Power Boxes' accessories; at this point, it wasn't
revealed that the teens had brought the Power
Boxes with them.
After watching their approach of Muiranthias from the galleon's upper deck days later, the teens went back downstairs and came up strapping
their Power Boxes on; apparently, they'd brought the Power Boxes, as
well as at least one short-range
locator, with them in the Turbozords.
The blue Power Box, not shown until now, was
slightly smaller than the others.
Adam had been wearing his Power Box when he went
downstairs to get into Desert Thunder,
but when he got into the Zord, he wasn't wearing it.
As Adam got out of Desert Thunder after driving it up to a
cliff on Muiranthias, he was strapping on
his Power Box.
Although his hands
had been empty while putting on his Power Box, Adam was suddenly holding a set of green digital
binoculars.
The teens morphed
while wearing their Power Boxes, but the packs weren't shown on the teens during the actual morph sequence.

T.J. used red digital
binoculars, just like the ones Adam had used in
500-TPRM, to spy on Elgar, Rygog, and Piranhatrons as they set up a rocket in the
woods.

Years later, the five Power Boxes were mounted on
the wall in the Transport Bay of the
Lightspeed Aquabase, with the blue pack
smaller just as it had been for Justin.
The Power Boxes now had Lightspeed sigils on them, or at least did by
806-WODe.
