** LeaderFormsTheHead: All three zords that form Megazord torsos (Lion, Gorilla, and Falcon) belong to Cole, and there's one formation where the Falcon is the torso and the Lion becomes the legs. Averted with Merrick's Predazord, where the Wolf only makes an arm.

* BookEnds: From a production standpoint -- the scenes at Turtle Cove Lanes in "The Tornado Spin" were filmed at the Santa Clarita Lanes -- the very same filming location used for the original, unaired ''MMPR'' pilot from back in 1992.

* CompositeCharacter: Composite ''Location'', in this case. In the source, the Gaorangers' base was actually a flying turtle-shaped stone structure called Gao's Rock, which could shuttle the Gaorangers between the Animarium and the surface. Here, the Rangers' base is a ruined temple located on the Animarium itself (it wasn't really explained how the Rangers got back and forth, though the finale shows the Animarium using a tractor beam to get Merrick and Kite out of Master Org's line of fire; it could be inferred this was how transportation was accomplished),

* SympatheticVillainDespicableVillain: Mixes this trope with HumansAreTheRealMonsters; Jindrax and Toxica, despite being part of a species that is MadeOfEvil, are [[UndyingLoyalty loyal to the Org cause]] and are [[EvenEvilHasStandards disgusted by the treachery of their bosses]] to the point of making a HeelFaceTurn. In one episode, Jindrax in the episode "Team Circus" is revealed to have a brother that he genuinely loves and is distraught when he dies. [[BigBad Master Org]], meanwhile WasOnceAMan who chose to become evil after [[EvilIsPetty being rejected by a woman he loved]] and [[YouHaveOutLivedYourUsefulness has no qualms about throwing away his minions' lives when he has no use for them]].

* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: One of the reasons Cole chose not to finish Dr. Adler (who, by this point has been revealed as Master Org) off in "The Master's Last Stand". The former realizes that taking the latter's life out of vengeance would make him no better than his enemy, and feels him being [[FateWorseThanDeath rendered powerless and critically injured is punishment enough]].

The first season produced after the Creator/{{Disney}} buyout, ''Wild Force'' was a transitional season; the first half was aired on Creator/FoxKids, while the second half aired on [[Creator/OneSaturdayMorningAndABCKids ABC Kids]]. Considered one of the weaker seasons, some dislike it for its lack of originality, being largely a clone of ''Gaoranger'' (some episodes are near {{shot for shot remake}}s[[note]]Not that that's a bad thing, necessarily.[[/note]]); the teamup episodes are pretty much the only cool bits that weren't ''Gaoranger'' footage. This ''apparently'' stems from producer Jonathan Tzachor's pushing for the show to be more and more of a copy and paste[[note]]Or a more faithful adaptation, depending on who you ask.[[/note]] of the Sentai. What draws fans to it is mostly the technical aspects--beneath the surface is a dark story of murder and war, and also, it has ''lots'' more giant robots than usual - not only that, but the individual Wild Zords are viewed by fans as being some of the coolest-looking animal mecha in the series due to their streamlined and almost naturalistic proportions. The other thing ''Wild Force'' is notable for is not one, but ''two'' excellent [[ReunionShow team-up]] specials.
