Free Rangers
A Free Ranger is a type of toy. They are all eggs serving in the military group of the same name, the Free Rangers. They are similar to traditional Green Army men, only sporting a more egg shape. They are often punished by having them "scrambled", though this may just be an expression or it may mean more training.

-Sarge-Leader of the Free Rangers.
-Private Memphis-First class private and good friend of sarge.
-The Sandersons' Chibi-Robo-Ununiformed soldier.

Trivia
- All Free Rangers excluding Sarge are named after real cities.
- The Free Rangers have appeared in more games than any other toy, save for Drake Redcrest.
- Most Free Rangers will talk to Chibi-Robo even when a human is in the same room, but they will hide before doing so.
- The Free Rangers' name is a pun on free-range eggs, a term used to describe eggs that were laid by birds who were allowed to be outdoors.
- In the Japanese version of Chibi Robo, the Free Ranger's guns are black, while in the U.S. they are orange. This is most likely due to censorship issues, as they did not want to have the rangers holding realistic guns.
