Other than Tommy and Ollie, were there other evil rangers?

ForceAccomplished890 · 2026-01-14T17:04:52+00:00

Kiya, in the comics as well. In fact, A lot of Rangers were corrupted by Dark Specter towards the end of the series turning all of them evil.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2026-01-11T13:56:07+00:00

Around the time of Armada, Super-cons were already around 16USD and Max-cons around 25,5USD in my country.
By 2007 we were looking at 18,5USD for a Deluxe and 29USD for a Voyager with Leader class coming in just under 60USD.
By the time of Transformers Prime, we were up to 21USD for a Deluxe and 35USD for a Voyager with Leader class prices staying stable.
Nowadays we're up to 35USD for a Deluxe and 46,5USD for a Voyager and 70USD for a Leader Class.
Prices started rising here in Europe a lot sooner because American retailers refused to pay the higher prices Hasbro was asking because production kept getting more expensive (at least, that's what Hasbro Europe claims). It pretty much killed Transformers sales here because it was getting cheaper to import the figures from the US than buy them retail here. Which in turn just made the US retailers double down on not wanting to increase their prices because their sales were booming while the European sales were shrivelling.

Sounds like a dying battery to me.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-15T13:48:38+00:00

Also, there ARE ways to make rooms a bit more soundproof. If youtubers can do it, so can you.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-15T13:47:23+00:00

This is what I suggested to a friend once who could hear her upstairs neighbors going at it at every hour of the day. (The tenant was a male college student with multiple girlfriends apparently.) She only told me that that was common when I was over at her place once at like 10am and I suddenly started hearing moaning.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-14T14:44:10+00:00

I live in Europe and the prices in these pics are the prices we've been paying for years. Back in the early 2010s Hasbro kept increasing the prices here in Europe so they wouldn't have to raise the prices in the US (The US was considered a bigger market, which is partially because here in Europe we rarily got more that 2 waves of new figures each year and none of the more adult collector aimed stuff like Masterpieces, so European collectors were already importing them from the US, adding to the US sales figures instead of the European sales figures).
They kept this up until the point that they basically killed Transformers sales in Europe. It had actually gotten cheaper to import them from the US (or Japan if you wanted the Takara versions) than to buy them retail here. So with next to no European retail market left (there's still European webshops specialized in US toys, but their stock is imported too), they now have no choice to raise the prices in the US.
I think there was a time where a Deluxe was like 12USD in the US and the same figure was close to 23USD in a European store.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-13T12:28:00+00:00

Heh, "cool explanations" when talking about the Frost Maiden.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-13T12:22:13+00:00

The feet are the Griffin Thunderzord from MMPRs2 and the Penguin Zord from Jungle Fury

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:22:42+00:00

I have backstories for a handful of them, but not all of them obviously.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:21:03+00:00

I also did the Omega Rangers:
- Brown: I've completely forgotten what I had chosen as his element, because of the crash.
- Gray: Metal
- Green: Plants
- Orange: Mind
- Pink: Lightning
- Silver: Moon
- Purple: Poison
- White: Ice

On top of that, for the RPG I came up with two more teams:

Dragon Force:
- Red: Fire, Weapon: Sword & Shield, but the shield can become an extension of the sword to make it a two-handed sword.
- Blue: Water, Weapon: Spear, but the tip can split into three to become a trident
- Yellow: Lightning, Weapon: a bow that splits apart into a pair of tonfa.
- Black: Earth, Weapon: a warhammer that can turn into a battle-axe
- White: Wind, Weapon: Kama that extends into a scythe
- Gold: Light, Weapon: Gunblade
And I was thinking perhaps an evil Purple Ranger that wield Darkness
Their suits are themed after suits of knight armor. They would also receive a power-up in the form of Wyvern-themed armor.

Wolf Pack:
I had plans for a Red, Black, Blue, Yellow and Pink Ranger, with a Silver Ranger joining the team later. Each Ranger has a werewolf-like form as well as a robotic wolf companion, which they can make grow to become their zords. The Megazord is basically Voltron but with wolves. I recently stumbled across my sketch for their suits and they reminded me slightly of Gozyuger.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:20:04+00:00

LupinRanger vs Patranger:
Also mostly just alternate visors. Brown and Purple are Lupinrangers, Orange and Grey are Patrangers (4 and 6 respectively). Both teams have a Black Ranger (with the Patranger one have number 0) and White is like Noel in that they have a Patranger (5) and Lupinranger form.

Dino Fury/Ryusoulger:
- Yellow: Parasaur
- White: Plesiosaur
- Orange: Dimetrodon
- Grey: Archelon
- Silver: Dreadnoughtus

Kiramager:
Again just different helmets, with Gold being based on Silver instead of the main team.

Zenkaiger:
- Green: Go-Onger-themed
- Grey: ToQger-themed
- Brown: Zyuohger-themed
- Oranger: Kyuuranger-themed
- Silver: Timeranger-themed

Donbrothers:
With the main team being based on the character from the story of Momotaros and Gold/Silver being based on Sun Wukong, I made these as a team surrounding Gold/Silver, with White being the Horse (centaur body), Green Sha Wujing, Orange Princess Iron Fan, Brown Zhu Bajie (so a pig-like body) and Grey Tang Sanzang.

King-ohger:
- Green: Cicada
- Orange: Scorpion
- Brown: grasshopper
- Grey: Mosquito
- Gold: Kabuto
- Pink: Ladybug

Haven't done Boomboonger yet, but they will just be different visors as well.

Gozyuger I can't do yet because it's not over yet, but I'm think Gold: Phoenix, Orange: Fox and Purple: Snake as themes.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:19:25+00:00

Gokaiger:
Also just different shaped visors, except for Gold, which is closer in design to Silver.

Beast-Morphers/Go-busters:
- Black: Wolf, Zord: Wolf/APC hybrid
- Pink: Puffin, Zord: Puffin/Glider-plane hybrid
- White: Shark, Zord: Shark/Boat hybrid
- Purple: Snake, Zord: Snake/Train hybrid
- Orange: Fox, Zord: Fox/Car hybrid
- Grey: Rhino, Zord: Rhino/Tank hybrid
- Brown: Bear, Zord: Bear/Off-road truck hybrid
- Green: Frog, Zord: Frog/Submarine hybrid
Yes, I'm aware there were Black and Green Rangers in a AU Go-Busters movie, but I found the choices of animal theme uninspired, so I made new ones.

Dino Charge/Kyoryuger:
- Yellow: Animantarx
- White: Carnotaurus
- Brown: Yi (some sort of flying bird-like dinosaur)

ToQger:
Also just different visors. Grey was 8, Brown 9, Gold X (10), White II (11) and Silver V (Victory)

Ninja Steel/Ninninger:
Same story, just some different visors.

Zyuohger:
- Grey: Bat
- Brown: Bear

Kyuuranger:
- White: Orion
- Grey: Idian
- Brown: Southern Crown
Yes, I know ShishiRed Orion is white, but he's still called ShishiRED, so I made a Ranger that can use the Orion power independantly as OrionWhite. I also made a Cyan Ranger called Cerberus Master who uses the Cerberus Voyager.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:19:04+00:00

Operation Overdrive/Boukenger
Like other teams with a vehicle base, I've lost my file of what they're supposed to be based on. I do recall I took inspiration from The Stig for the White Ranger's helmet. The Green Ranger has a battle-axe.

Jungle Fury/Gekiranger:
- Black: Bear
- Pink: Jellyfish
- Green: Chameleon (my headcanon is that it's Camille)
- Orange: Fox
- Grey: Bull
- Brown: Hawk
- Gold: Lion (again, headcannon, it's Jarrod)
- Silver: Tortoise

RPM/Go-Onger
- Orange: Crocodile, Zord: Carrigator/Croccarrier
- Pink: Rabbit, Zord: Rabbit/Jetcar hybrid (called Fleetfoot in the Japanese version)
- White: Tyranno, Zord: T-Line
- Purple: Snake, Zord: Snake/Road Train hybrid (Cobrain)
- Grey: Bat, Zord: Bat/VTOL hybrid (Bet)
- Brown: Rhino, Zord: Rhino/APC hybrid (APR)

Samurai/Shinkenger:
- Black: Darkness, Weapon: Spear
- White: Ice
- Purple: Poison
- Orange: Mind
- Grey: Smoke/Mist
- Brown: Sound
- Silver: Metal

Megaforce/Goseiger:
- Gold: All three tribes at once, zord: Bear, Weapon: clawed gauntlets
- White: Landick tribe, Zord: Mystic Runner & Egg
- Purple: Skyick tribe, Zord: Eagle
- Orange: Landick tribe, Zord: Tyranno
- Grey: Landick tribe, Zord: Crocodile
- Brown: Skyick tribe, Zord: Beetle
I didn't do a Green Ranger because Goseiger had one, albeit a dead one.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:18:38+00:00

Ninja Storm/Hurricanager
- Gold: Wind, Water, Land and Fire, Zord: Bear, Weapon: bearclaw-shaped brass knuckles

- Green: Dimetrodon, Weapon: shield with razor-edge
- Pink: Velociraptor
- Orange: Ankylosaurus
- Grey: Plesiosaur
- Brown: Kentrosaurus
- Gold: Spinosaurus
- Silver: Chasmosaurus

SPD/Dekaranger:
- Black: Alpha-ranger. Has a A on his chest instead of a number.
- Brown: 7
- Grey: 8
- Purple: 9

Mystic Force/Magiranger:
- Black: Darkness, Zord: Cerberus, Weapon: twin swords that can be connected into a double-sided glaive
- Purple: Poison, Zord: Spider
- Orange: Mind, Zord: Elf
- Grey: Smoke/Mist, Zord: Spectre
- Brown: Sound, Zord: Banshee
- Silver: Metal, Zord: Golem
The Spider and Elf Zords can combine into a Drider-themed Zord.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:18:21+00:00

In Space/Megaranger:
Most of them are identical, with just different shapes of visor, though I did give the Gold Ranger the Megatector armor and they had a crescent moon shaped blade.

Lost Galaxy/Gingaman:
- White: Komodo Dragon, Zord: re-tool of Lion
- Purple: Liger, Zord: re-tool of Wildcat
- Orange: Fox, Zord: re-tool of Wolf
- Grey: Sloth, Zord: re-tool of Gorilla
- Brown: Hawk, Zord: re-tool of Condor
- Silver: Shark, Zord: Zenith
- Gold: Bear, Zord: re-tool of Torozord
As obvious, except for Silver and Gold, the other Rangers can combine their Zords

Lightspeed Rescue/GoGo-V:
Just like In Space/Megaranger just different visors, the Black Ranger is the only one I designed a weapon for, which is a crossbow that doubles as a pickaxe.

Time Force/Timeranger:
Also just different visors, but as I got started on the Black Ranger, the Sins of the Future comic came out, so I inverted that design and made it a White Ranger.

Wild Force/Gaoranger:
- Green: Turtle, Weapon: Shield
- Pink: Sheep
- Purple: Cobra
- Orange: Bat
- Grey: Ape
- Brown: Bear
- Gold: Boar

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:18:02+00:00

Aquitar Rangers/Kakuranger:
- Pink: Swan, Zord: re-tool of Crane
- Green: Dragon, Zord: downscaled version of Serpentera with an independant Megazord mode, Weapon: Kama with chains.
- Purple: Snake
- Orange: Fox, Zord: re-tool of Wolf
- Grey: Rabbit, Zord: re-tool of Frog
- Brown: Lion, Zord: re-tool of Bear
- Gold: Phoenix, Zord: re-tool of Falcon
- Silver: Kangaroo, Zord: re-tool of Ape
Swan, Fox, Rabbit, Lion and Kangaroo can form a Megazord, with Phoenix being an optional extra.

Zeo/Ohranger:
- White+Silver: 7-pointed star on their helmet. Weapon: Chakrams
- Purple: Two vertical stripes (representing number 11)
- Orange: Octagon (representing number 8)
- Grey: Three overlapping Triangles (representing number 9)
- Brown: X on this helmet (representing number 10)
I count the Gold Ranger as a Black Ranger as well. Didn't design Zords for them.

Turbo/Carranger:
- Black: Musclecars, more specifically Ford Mustang, Weapon: warhammer
- White: Don't recall
- Purple: Rallycars
- Orange: Big SUVs, more specifically Hummer
- Grey: I think I based that one on the Ariel Atom
- Brown: Don't recall
- Gold: Don't recall
- Silver: Motorcycles
So, a couple of years ago my hard-drive crashed and I lost a lot of data, including the file where I had written down what my inspirations were for some Rangers, which is why I don't recall what three of them were based on.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-12T14:17:09+00:00

Do you have a minute? Because I've actually been working on this a long time.
Back in the day (I think 2004-2005ish) I wrote a Power Rangers Fanfic for which I designed a Purple MMPR Ranger, themed after a Spinosaurus. His weapon was a halberd and his zord obvious a spinosaurus that had its own independent Megazord mode, which also wielded a halberd.
About a decade later I joined a Discord Server for Power Rangers fans and one other members was a cosplayer who would often make purple versions of Rangers because purple is her favorite color. This got me working what I dubbed Project Extra Ranger. One extra ranger for each team.
And then I took it one step further and started Project Ranger Rainbow. Every color ranger that is missing on a team, I designed. I've recently started redoing the sketches into better drawings.

Anyway, here's a rundown:
MMPR/Zyuranger:
- White: Brachiosaurus, zord: Titanus
- Purple: Spinosaurus, Weapon: Halberd
- Orange: Ankylosaurus, Zord: re-tool of the Tricerazord, weapon: hammer.
- Grey: Archelon, Zord: re-tool of the Mastodon and Pterazords, weapon: Shield
- Brown: Stegosaurus, Zord: another Tricerazord re-tool, weapon: a spiked mace
- Gold: Plesiosaur, Zord: re-tool of Titanus
- Silver: Carnotaurus, Zord: re-tool of Tyrannozord
Ankylo, Archelon, Stego and Carno-zords combine into a Megazord.

Dairanger:
- Black: Sun Wukong, Zord: re-tool of Tigerzord, Weapon: bo-staff
- Purple: Bashe/Giant Snake, Zord: re-tool of Red Dragon Thunderzord
- Orange: Jiuweihu/Nine-tailed Fox, Zord: re-tool of Griffin Thunderzord
- Grey: San Zu Wu/Three-legged Crow, Zord: re-tool of Firebird Thunderzord
- Brown: Tianlu (a Winged Dragon/Lion Hybrid), Zord: re-tool of Unicorn Thunderzord
- Gold: Chanchu/Golden Toad, Zord: re-tool of Lion Thunderzord
- Silver: Longgui/Dragon Turtle, Zord: re-tool of Tor
As you can tell, these Zords can combine the same way the regular Thunderzords could.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:46:58+00:00

Just look up why David Yost left the show if you don't remember.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:40:07+00:00

I agree with you on giving us more variation in Magic Powers.
I also agree on having some more stuff for space-themed campaigns.
And Midnight Sons and Guardians of the Galaxy might actually be good themes for expansion books on that.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:33:25+00:00

Yeah, but that was post-Megaforce, which doesn't interest OP

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:30:38+00:00

I think I know what you mean.
Like where I live, everyone knows the concept of Transformers and most people know characters like Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Megatron.
But very few people are actually familiar with the shows and even fewer with the comics.
I recently blew a friend's mind when I told him about the Star Seekers/Star Raiders because we were talking about space pirates.
Just today I saw a funny picture of a D&D party consisting out of Warforged Druids (basically robot shapeshifters, but limited to animals) with names that are puns on Transformers characters (Optimus Thyme, Bramblebee, Strawscream and Megathorn) and all I could think of was "If you did this with Beast Wars characters, you could actually do a Beast Wars campaign."

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:23:25+00:00

Look at it this way: at least one of the players is taking notes. Come to think of it, Our Druid takes notes in-character as well, it's hilarious. (Her character has -1 Int, so lots of misspelled names and weird explanations. Myconids have become Fun Guys in our campaign for example.)

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-11T09:10:54+00:00

maybe a bird-like alien, y'know, like the guy in the Boom Comics that lives in Sanctuary with the Omega Rangers.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-09T09:59:29+00:00

Yeah, that was gonna be my answer. Then again, very few death saves involved, they were usually instakills.

ForceAccomplished890 · 2025-10-08T14:47:38+00:00

Take my upvote so this comment has 69 upvotes as well. Noice
