Honestly? I think that Saban saw that the meka were spaceships, and decided that since this was going to be (ostensibly) the last season, that it made sense to have a big outer space epic to wrap things up.

It worked out for pretty much all parties (except, I guess, Blake Foster), as In Space was a hit in the ratings, and Saban was able to build off of that success to transform the show into the annual adaption format, which allows the show to exist without some of the snarls of the earlier format (namely, if you replace your characters each year, you don't need to keep writing them out of the story when the actor want a raise).

However, it still seems like they made him a new shield for the command center scenes, which is half line and curve and half all curve.

I have noticed this as well; I guess they had some money to improve the "Hero Suit" in the last few appearances of the Green Ranger?
