Everyone's favourite ponytailed "bad boy" Tommy the Green Ranger from the original
Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.
Or if you're a bit of a snobby Japanese purist
Yamato Tribe Knight Burai, the previously unknown older brother of the TyrannoRanger Geki from
Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger. Burai is the first official sixth ranger to join a Super Sentai team and if you watch Zyuranger the whole thing with the green candle is actually a lot more poignant. The DragonRanger comes armed with his Zyusoken dagger/flute which summons
Dragon Caesar and the corruptive Devil Sword Hellfriede that the evil witch Bandora gives Burai to encourage him to fight the Zyurangers. One great thing about Power Rangers was that they kept the original music played when summoning the Dragonzord. It totally didn't fit with the electric guitar rock anthem that was the Power Rangers theme song but many a kid from the 90's will recognize it. This figure is pretty well articulated for not being a fancy Tamashii Nations release.

| You know, the Dragon dinosaur... |

| In Zyuranger the "Zords" were actually "Guardian Beasts" that had their own minds so the dinosaur theme wasn't as strict. |

| Also dragons get more bling? |

That is a sweet sword. Also, Green is definitely the emo-est of them all...
ReplyDeleteYeah he was the character who was allowed to be a little flawed and then be really mopey about it.
