Animals used for the Monsters Part 1

I will be doing some posts, the only order is by broad titles like 'feline.' If you see other animals missing, they will be in the other posts, this is just by my memory since there are sooooo many animals. I got help from my friend Larry, whose forte is Monsters. I will only go by the Super Sentai names because there so many. I will also cover the 'Zyu 2' monsters made for PR. I am only covering the animals that are covered more than once, not those onners like Canary Nejira (Megaranger) or that Archerfish Rinshi (Gekiranger) for examples. Also not counting generals. Of course I will be missing some, so politely tell me which ones!

Anything from before Jetman, I have the picture on Super Sentai.com but it is a grid of a bunch of them and I don't feel like cropping it and make a bunch of new pictures.

HELP! Power Morpher in need of help

I bought my morpher in 1993 and never changed the batteries.

The batteries were all old and corroted. I have the two new batteries but two parts popped out. The red thingy below and a spring. I forget how the red things goes. Please some one has to know how to fix this!
I have the two batteries, red thingy and spring which is needed to open and close the morpher. I have everything.

Poll: What odd colors should a new Ranger be?


Brown ブラウン
I am not crazy about this color but some people like it. Closest we have had has been Richard Brown in Shinkenger.

Chartreuse ライムグリーン
It is like a lime green.


Turquoise ターコイズ
I think this would be the most likely, as female blues have been light blue.

Orchid color 蘭
Light pink-purple, exactly the same color of the flower of the same name.


Fuchsia フクシア
Like Magenta, it is kinda of a pink but mix with red and purple. I love this color but I think it is unlikely it will be used because it is so much like pink. Maybe for the male Pink Ranger if there is ever one.


Periwinkle ツルニチニチソウ
It is like a light blue with a mix of violet.


Peach 桃
Peach is a popular fruit in Japan. In America, many use the crayon peach as skin color.

Update on my Fan Fiction Project Mythical Destiny

Some asked me if Yellow would be a girl. Because I had already cast for a Shinkenger -based project, I had 2 girls. Yellow is a girl, I wish I could have done Yellow male and Green female, but I already had a lock on Green, my Green didn't want to change. And my Blue wanted to be the first male Pink Ranger but my Pink didn't want to change either and I didn't want a male Pink Ranger with a skirt on, also based on some character developments that I didn't want the character stereotyped, you will see. Anyways, yeah in the end, Pink is a girl and Yellow is a girl.

As for ethnicity, because I live in Miami (a city full of Hispanics/Latinos), I had no choice to go with Hispanics. I am Hispanic. Originally I had my African-American friend as Blue but he had to drop out for reasons I cannot divulge. And I had my Asian friend was in selection for Yellow, which maybe was controversial. But since Will was the second African-American Black Ranger, I figure it shouldn't matter because race shouldn't be a big deal. She is camera shy and didn't feel comfortable doing it. Ultimately, Red is Cuban-American, Blue and Pink are half Puerto-Rican and half Dominican, Yellow is Caucasian, and Green is half Cuban, half Ecuadoran. I really tried have African-American rangers, but many were busy and couldn't do it.

And it's been really hard to get my five friends together. Also, it is extremely hard to shoot in Miami in the summer. Lots and lots of rain and it is Hurricane season. And when there is sun, it is smoking hot, hard to work in. I made masks of the Cotportos footsoliders and they didn't look so great, but the best I could do with little money, it is extremely hot under the costumes, even when there is air conditioning. So I had to scrap the fighting scenes. I had to scrap many scenes I planned because of scheduling conflicts, everyone is either in school, working or both. Also, my camera tripod broke and other things like that. Basically what I am saying is that there will be only one episode and I'm not doing anymore because it is so hard to get everyone together. And it is going to get harder when September comes around because of college and work. Oh and I'm not recasting. I now understand why Celestial Fury has taken so long to come out.
