I'm continuing my passion project/series and re-creating something that defined my childhood. I'm redesigning and building the original combining Megazord from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The second Zord is the pink ranger's "Pterodactyl that turns into a chest" Zord.

And a HUGE thanks to all the support from everyone on Patreon!

  • you know what they say, one mans trash is anothers trash but more useful to them.
  • The pink ranger would definitely commend you for not being a coward and adding pink. It used to make me SO MAD as a kid. The compromise you went with with having the model be red when its a chest piece but pink in pterodactyl mode is perfect! The articulation really shines with the color choice, as you can see it get more and more pink. Awesome job recreating my favorite power ranger's ride!!!
  • At this point, my kids watch these with me in eager anticipation for the inevitable horseshoes and the deity they represent! They lose it every time our hooved master makes their appearance on screen! Thanks for the good time, every time.

    Damn, those 100 pizza tables could've been the new horseshoes! You could have built lore around them as you used them up in every build, and then, eventually, you could have built the 1000-armed pizza baker! It would have been so epic
  • 11:34 One phrase in the hobby that's recently surfaced with the new fans is that "Gunpla is freedom" You're not destroying Gundam kits, but rather utilizing parts to express your creative freedom, which ultimately is the goal of Gunpla building. So keep on doing what you're doing

    That black thing is a snap on mask attachment for safety glasses 😊

    I hope that ending was foreshadowing for your next build: Mecha Baby Sinclair
  • @shadowscribe
    Fantastic work. I'm tickled it has better proportions and superior wings and feet without resorting to eventual partsforming.
  • I like the idea that the OG Megazords had been stuck in the ground for so long that they started to rust.
  • The fact that my man is learning to make articulated stuff just oppened one hell of a box of pandora
  • @TheEshy
    I can only imagine this build is going to become more difficult as you progress. I cant wait to see how you overcome the challenge of making all the parts combine.
  • I love how both Zords clearly look like the ones from the show with a unique and very cool style that ties them together
  • @minerman60101
    I like the color choices--pink for the pterodactyl mode when it's a solo vehicle and then red for when it'd be the chest of the Megazord to maintain color palette cohesion
  • @aidenmb7932
    "I've waited an eternity for this" Seriously, it looks so good! I cant wait for all of them
  • That colour job was actually really clever. By having the colours on opposite sides, because of how the transformation occurs the result from a "toy" perspective is that the pterodactyl is pink by the megazord is red.
  • @adamdecoder1
    This is my favorite craft channel. Like "you suck at cooking" vibes but for crazy kitbashing. So good.

    Man, at this trajectory with scale, he should be able to ride your Howls moving castle to create the ultimate early 2000s kids dream playset!
