This Thanksgiving, the legendary Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger will make his epic debut as he morphs into a giant helium balloon for the 88th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade® on Thursday, Nov. 27. Marking the first-ever Power Ranger balloon, the Red Ranger will captivate millions of spectators and television viewers nationwide as he flies across the skies of New York during the holiday event.

"We look forward to creating a larger than life Mighty Morphin Power Ranger balloon that will entertain generations of fans while sharing the Power Rangers core values of teamwork, responsibility and helping others," said Elie Dekel, President of Saban Brands. "Seeing the Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger soar in the Macy's Parade will truly be legendary."

"The super-sized Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger will be an incredible addition to the stellar line-up of balloons taking to the sky this Thanksgiving," said Amy Kule, Executive Producer of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. "As one of the most recognizable characters in television history and a powerfully relevant star for today's generation of kids, the Red Ranger will take his rightful place in the skies over New York City and sail into the homes of more than 50 million fans who tune in on Parade morning. We are honored to welcome the Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger into the Macy's Thanksgiving Day balloon family."

Originally debuting in 1993, Power Rangers is one of the longest running boys live-action series in television history and continues to be a top-rated series entertaining fans of all ages. New episodes of Saban's Power Rangers Super Megaforce, return this fall on Nickelodeon, followed by the premiere of the 22nd season, Saban's Power Rangers Dino Charge, in early 2015.

For more information, please visit www.powerrangers.com and follow the brand on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram. The 88th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade airs nationwide on NBC-TV, on Thursday, November 27, 2014 from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.; in all time zones.

Racist show. The black power ranger was a black dude, and the yellow power ranger was asian.

Damn, when I first glimpsed the headline I got excited thinking it was an announcement about Austin St. John joining the Super Megaforce reunion ep. Frack it anyway. I guess a Red Ranger float is also cool!?!

Its really great how Saban is going all out to celebrate the show's 20th anniversary. Too bad the new movie won't come out in time for the 20th anniversary of the original movie. Man, I remember seeing that one opening day when I was a kid. Good times.
