With a Power Rangers movie of undetermined quality on the agency , a new amusing book from Boom Studios performing atrociously well , and DVD sets of the original Super Sentai series finally hitting the U.S. , it ’s also the perfect time to take all the colossus from the original Mighty Morphin ’ Power Rangers TV series , and gauge them . remorselessly .
Given that MMPR ’s three seasons ( plus the Mighty Morphin ’ Alien Rangers miniseries ) stop 155 installment — and those episodes contained 134 scoundrel and monsters station by Rita Repulsa and/or her malign contemporaries to torment the Rangers — that ’s a lot of monsters to judge .
We did it anyway . Here they are — every single MMPR devil , grade from best to worst . May the power protect you .
1 ) Rita Repulsa : The uncontested fairy of the Monsters and the fine fair sex to have ever spent 10,000 years incarcerated in a dumpster on the moonshine . Cones for day !
2 ) Face thief : fundamentally a rotten head teacher buried inside a pumpkin , the Face Stealer has the singular ability to work out people ’s faces off with a giant tongue ! His junior-grade Jack ‘ O Lantern “ face ” is retractable , like a beetle ’s wing casings .
3 ) Eye Guy : A heap of eyeballs , form into the crude form of a homo ! And when he opens his mouth , you learn the braggy eyeball was inside him all along .
4 ) Mutitus : A flayed Frankenstein ’s lusus naturae , bolts - in - the - cervix and all ! Mutitus actually had a second , stronger form , which was objectively less metal , even with the addition of tendrils . Still , two in one .

5 ) Scorpina : Scorpina was a really intriguing , underutilized case with a killer , secondary monster kind . Her lovely relationship with Goldar was underplayed in the US , so I channelise you all to the Nipponese serial publication , Zyuranger , for more Scorpina action !
6 ) Terror salientian : An exemplary anuran monstrosity that handle to eat 4/5ths of the Power Rangers and keep their faces weightlift against his belly like an amphibious Freddy Krueger ! The animation of his tongue fly around is howling , but the best thing about him is still his 2nd “ face ” , hiding in the skin - waddle of his deep-set chin . It ’s just a mouth ( with teeth ) and eyespots . He also rock a sensationalistic Mohawk .
7 ) See Monster : An eerie ashen school principal , with dingy niche where the eye should be , the See Monster ’s tegument is by nature shaped like a trenchcoat . When he open his flesh - jacket up , he unveil a rude , starfish - similar mound of raw , let out capillary with 100 of orb , all staring at you ! Yes , it ’s a monstrosity base on a flasher . Too salient . Too thrilling .
- Goo Fish : Sent by Lord Zedd to tap Billy ’s icthyophobia , the Goo Fish only resemble a fish in the outline , but he certainly lived up to the “ goo ” hope in spades , spraying it everywhere with that for good affixed self - quenched expression .

12 ) Lanterra : A Chinese lantern freak that just gets cool the more you face at him . The toothy back talk on its squeeze box – like soundbox is striking , but its the arachnoid eye at his “ handle ” — just a little too faithful together — that arrange him over the edge . Also , his name is a paronomasia on the band “ Pantera ” . Brutal !
13 ) Lord Zedd : All shaver envy Lord Zedd ’s power to wave his staff and produce monsters from inanimate objects like yellow trumpet and handbags . He ’s also a big , defleshed goofball .
14 ) Brick Bully : A living brick wall covered in graffiti , The Brick Bully had two material body : a placid , ghostly personification with a chalk - blank , upside - down human chief ; and a craggier , less structurally stable version where the head becomes a rima oris when angry . If you remember the music video forCrossroads , Bone Thugs N ’ Harmonyknew the economic value of a preoccupied wall , too .
15 ) Finster : Undoubtedly the most passable ceramics scholar you ’ll ever see , Finster sculpted Rita ’s monsters from a form of alien clay , then beam them through a machine that would bring them to liveliness . It was always a high spot of any installment , watching the animal come down the chute and introduce themselves . In Japan , he ’s call “ Pleprechaun ” !
16 ) Pipebrain : This guy gets a boost due to his original appearing on the Japanese serial , Dairanger . The first monster of the season , “ Pipebrain ” sung a doleful requiem while playing with a yo - yo under the somewhat more dignified name , “ Baron String . ” In MMPR , he used candles to run down the Rangers of their king . Still a cool intent .
17 ) Pumpkin Rapper : A rapping Cucurbita pepo with an upside - down school principal . He was not very secure at his vocation , but he was fun . excerpt dialogue from his episode :
Zordon : “ He will prove to distract you with his raps and rhymes . ”
Pumpkin Rapper : “ Pumpkin rappin ’ is about to materialize ! ”
Zordon : “ You must go to the car park and witness this monster … before he ripens . ”
18 ) Rito Revolto : Rita ’s screw up brother ! Looks cool with a dual skeleton / military motif .

On the Japanese serial publication , Kakuranger , he was more of a punk rocker .
19 ) Cardiatron : The sentient center residing inside a giant monster called Hatchasaurus , Cardiatron spoke in a haughty , blue tone . Not quite Paul Lynde , not quite Jim Backus , but somewhere in between . An rare heart - themed giant , which demand a rejoinder .

28 ) Magnetbrain : In the Japanese version , the monsters often spend half the episode in human guise , so interesting character actors can diddle them ( in this case , Shoichiro Akabosh ) . And this guy was great ! A man of the cloth , “ Father Magnet ” was still foremost a magnet , sustain from a verbal tic in which he had to reason out each statement with , “ Gauss ” . Neat enough on Power Rangers , grand on its Sentai counterpart , Dairanger .
29 ) Weaveworm : Scorpina ’s pet silkworm ! Spits goo from a skull - similar header .
30 ) A.C. : Counterpart to D.C. and Henchman of Nimrod — another body part - theme goliath — A.C. was the eeriest of the trio . Predominantly a pair of gargantuan floppy ear with earrings , A.C. also sported a black boa , which he wear down on his head like a mullet .
31 ) Garbage Mouth : A blue fungus / trashcan ogre with the eyelid permanently coalesce to his top dog , the best thing about Garbage Mouth is that the words “ Welcome to Jlhouse ” ( sic ) are inexplicably tattooed to his os frontale .
