Exclusive: Get the details on ‘Power Rangers Dino Charge’s’ Gold Ranger

dinocharge

Thanks to Saban Brands we have new pictures of Sir Ivan of Zandar (played by Davi Santos) from Power Rangers Dino Charge. We also have more details of the Gold Ranger from Examiner.com

The Gold Ranger has arrived on Power Rangers Dino Charge – but exactly who is the Gold Ranger?

Ivan, the Gold Ranger, is a valiant and brave knight from the ancient kingdom of Zandar. With a gentle and kind soul, he values honesty and loyalty above all else. Since Ivan is literally a figure from the past, he often uses odd, antiquated phrases resulting in some very amusing cultural clashes. Thankfully, he has his new friends, the Power Rangers, to help him understand and navigate the modern world.

800 years ago, the 18-year-old Ivan was escorting the Prince of Zandar through the woods when he came across the Gold Energem in a creek. Both knight and prince were viciously attacked by Fury, who trapped Ivan’s entire being into his body while Ivan was trying to protect the Prince. Ivan was then kept captive for many centuries, until the Power Rangers Dino Charge discovered the Gold Energem and helped him break out of his prison from within Fury.

Weapon: Ptera Morpher and Saber
Zord: Ptera Zord
Dinosaur Spirit: Pterodactyl
Energem Color: Gold

Power Rangers Dino Charge airs Saturdays at 12 p.m. ET/PT on Nickelodeon.
