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.
The Free Rangers are an army of small plastic egg soldiers originating from ''[https://chibirobo.fandom.com/wiki/Chibi-Robo!_Plug_Into_Adventure! Chibi-Robo! Plug into Adventure!]''. They usually stay in the foyer, doing training with their leader, [https://chibirobo.fandom.com/wiki/Sarge Sarge]. They listen to his orders obediently, though occasionally complaining about it. After a certain point in the game, some of them go AWOL and leave the Free Rangers for their own paths in life.
The ones that stay continue their training in order to defeat the family dog, [https://chibirobo.fandom.com/wiki/Tao Tao], since he had kidnapped the smallest Free Ranger, Memphis.
