Austin St. John, better known as Jason Lee Scott the Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger and Zeo Gold Ranger recently returned to the fandom after being gone for many years while serving as a medic in the middle east. Through his official Facebook page he has done another audio clip, this time answering some of the more burning questions that fans have been asking on his page.
Why did he decline the 20th Anniversary reunion episode in Power Rangers Super Megaforce? What conventions will he be attending, and are any overseas? Would he be open to returning to the Power Rangers franchise? These questions and more are answered in this audio clip below! And many fans can’t help but notice a slight “dig” at Jason David Frank, which would stem from a long feud between the two actors which stem mostly from comments made redundantly by Jason David Frank at nearly every convention appearance. Check out this excellent audio clip below. Back to Action with Austin St. John!

I was just about to post this. Onore-Kickback
He sounds so cool. And candid. He's not rude, but he's not shy about pointing out bullshit. (like Saban's offer)
He's humble, he's honest, and he genuinely seems interested in teh fans.

Anyone wanna sum up this by text? on my phone and connection is kinda slow to load video
- Didn't do the 20th Anniversary episode because it equated out to about the price of a plane ticket back from New Zealand and pocket change. Too much pride and believes that he is worth more than that (not in a boastful, ego way, but a self-worth type of way)
- Open to return to the franchise but it has to be fair for him and for anyone else that comes back with him to the show (ie: no one paid more or less to return, all treated and paid fair and equally)
- Convention in Canada planned but not ready to announce
- Confirmed his role as a medic in the Middle East
- Would love to go do a convention in a country that "isn't trying to shoot him"
- Planning merchandise but wants fans to know that it's for them - he's not about trying to monetize who he is, feels fans know what he means when he says they get enough of that as it is, that he hates people who do everything and anything for money (basically, digs at JDF)
- States he will not tolerate people being negative towards other Rangers on his page
- Hates people that think they're the best at anything, that's not the way he was raised or what martial arts taught him (another dig at JDF)
- Finishes with the classic "back to action" line
He sounds like a decent guy with his head screwed on straight.
Thanks Kickback, look foward to hearing this later

This kinda makes me glad I own the SDCC Armored Red Ranger Action Card now... I WANT HIM TO SIGN IT FOR ME!!
