- – Free Ranger's official catchphrase
Free Ranger is a storm chicken who is one of the SWAP Force Skylander in Skylanders: Swap Force. He is of the Air element, and his SWAP Force ability is Spin.
Character Development
Free Ranger's stormblades were inspired from the claw attacks of the scrapped Skylander, Breezewing.[2]
Background
Personality
A real whirlwind, Free Ranger is sometimes too impetuous for his own good.[3] He has a love for bad weather, such as tornadoes, hurricanes and thunderstorms, and would often throw himself into them. He is most likely to talk about the weather; and least likely to stay indoors because it's raining. He is uncomfortable in confined spaces.[4]
Biography
Free Ranger was hatched during a storm when a thunderous bolt of lightning struck his egg. From that very moment, his destiny was clear – he would become the greatest storm chaser ever known! He spent his entire life pursuing hurricanes, spinning inside tornados, and riding lightning. But a day came when he encountered a storm unlike any other. It was unnatural and ominous, billowing with evil, and leaving only desolation in its wake. Free Ranger was standing at its edge, moments from boldly leaping into it, when he was stopped by none other than Master Eon. The wise Portal Master told him that it was The Darkness that raged before them, and if he were up to the challenge, he could join the Skylanders to help defend against it in the Cloudbreak Islands.

Trivia
- Free Ranger's name is a play on free range, a farming method for chickens.
- He shares the same few battle quotes as Sonic Boom.
- Free Ranger's lower half is capable of stopping enemies from spinning and using swirling shields as their means of defense by using his tornado ability.
- His blades resemble Adam Frankenstein's blades from I, Frankenstein and the bat'leth from Star Trek.
- Incidentally, they also resemble Stealth Elf's blades, even Hodge's blades from the Mortal Instruments: City of Bones.
- His blades also resemble Plasma Rifles from the Halo series.
- His stormblades are similar to chakrams.
- Oddly, his belt buckle is gold on his artwork and toy, but is blue in-game.
- Free Ranger is voiced by Joey Camen, who is also the voice actor of Terrafin and Boomer.
- He is the second Air Skylander to come with a starter pack; the first was Jet-Vac for Skylanders: Giants, and the third was Gusto for Skylanders: Trap Team.
- He's also the first to do so both for Nintendo 3DS and as a non-core Skylander.
- In early packaging, his catchphrase was mistakenly Hoot Loop's catchphrase.
- He and Magna Charge are the only SWAP Force Skylanders whose secondary attacks are capable of causing enemies to drop defenses. Other SWAP Force Skylanders with their bottom halves are able to do the same thing.
- In the Wii version of SWAP Force, he doesn't say his catchphrase until after he stops spinning.
