In the upcoming series of "Power Rangers", "Power Rangers Dino Charge", the Paragon Prisms were given to a dozen dinosaurs for safe keeping by an alien, but they were lost when asteroids hit the Earth and wiped out the dinosaurs. Now in the present day, an intergalactic bounty hunter starts sniffing around Earth looking for the Prisms in order to harness their power and annihilate the world, so a all-new team of Power Rangers forms to find the Prisms first and fight the bounty hunter and other threats with dino-powered swords, blasters, Zords and Megazords.

USA Today is also reporting that Bandai America is slated to create a new dinosaur-themed "Power Rangers" toy line pegged to the series launch in 2015.

Dinos are a big draw in Japan and will continue the strong success of "Power Rangers" overseas, according to Bandai CEO Akihiro Sato.

Commenting about the franchise returning to the Jurassic influence that also gave the world "Power Rangers Dino Thunder" in 2004, Elie Dekel, President of Saban Brands, said "we know fans will find this next season larger than life".

In Dino Charge, the Paragon Prisms were given to a dozen dinosaurs for safe keeping by an alien, but they were lost when asteroids hit the Earth and wiped out the dinos. Now in the present day, an intergalactic bounty hunter starts sniffing around Earth looking for the Prisms in order to harness their power and annihilate the world, so a team of Power Rangers forms to find the Prisms first and fight the bounty hunter and other threats with dino-powered swords, blasters, Zords (in Power Rangers lingo, large fighting machines) and Megazords.
