The Full Story of the THUNDER ZORDS & MEGAZORD | Power Rangers Explained 

I definitely noticed that too.

Really

@@ethanengelking2492 yup. The original or dragonzord didn’t appear in any original footage. It did for one episode in season 2 and a friend in need part 3 and ninja quest… part 1 obviously 😅

It's getting a SMP set soon, but that's small and you have to build it yourself. I enjoy the building process and how poseable they are, but I know they aren't for everyone. (They're also pretty expensive). Maybe we'll see a ZAP version eventually.

I agree.

I agree! had they done this they could have had a better chance at taking down Rito Revolto, I believe.

​​@@jonathonearl482 think the tiger megazord might have been able to handle Rito. By the way I also used to also wonder why they always went straight to mega zord and hardly ever fought the monsters individually for awhile. Sometimes they would do this with the orginal zords and the ninja zords. By the way ninja zords were never destroyed.

​@@jonathonearl482they did that in the comics

Dairanger is so good. 😁

I kind of wonder if it healing them was just exclusive to the Super Sentai version of the show, as not only is it not explained in Power Rangers (someone correct me if I'm wrong), but when it happens the first time the Rangers comment that their zords were totalled. This to me would seem to imply that, at least in the Power Rangers adaptation, it actually did damage the zords. Power Rangers doesn't always follow the same lore as the Sentai series they are based on, and they took a lot of liberties with the series up until the conclusion of In Space in an effort to maintain continuity and use the same cast, rotating out old characters and replacing them while still keeping the original team at least partially intact. It's also for this reason why they didn't give them new costumes in ranger form until Zeo despite Tommy getting a new one when transitioning to his white ranger powers

They were, lore wise, supposed to be far superior to the dinozords. Unfortunately Saban worked with extremely limited stock footage, so the Thunderzord battles were amongst the most samey and repetitive zord battles in PR history. In fact, of 52 episodes in season 2, there is a grand total of ONE episode where the zords attempt to fight individually rather than instantly forming one of the megazod formations (Ep19: Two for One)

@@desslaven7935 oh okay, that makes sense now because even as a kid watching the show, am like why are they struggling if they are supposed to be stronger than the previous zords, what u said makes sense.

This right here. Just rewatched the first2 seasons and I thought these sucked. The ones you mentioned all look the same
