Power Rangers Turns 25: Every Megazord In The TV Show's History

It's hard to believe, but it's been 25 years since Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers first debuted in 1993. It first premiered on Fox on August 28, 1993, and made heavy use of the colorful battle sequences from the Japanese TV show Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger. While actors were hired to play the teenagers in Power Rangers, the actual ranger scenes were typically repurposed from the Japanese series.It was a formula that saved him and money, as far as creating a kids show goes, and it worked. Since then, over the course of 22 different versions of the superpowered team--if you include the short-lived Alien Rangers--the franchise has continued to reinvent itself again and again.With those reinventions, obviously, come new teams of rangers tasked with saving the planet, galaxy, timeline, or whatever else they're in charge of. However, each new take on Power Rangers also comes with at least one new Megazord.When the challenge is too big for a group of highly-skilled fighters, they call on their massive robot friends, zords, to continue the battle and come together to form a massive fighting machine--the Megazord. Each Power Rangers series has its own Megazord, and some have more than one.The series has run for 25 years, and it shows no signs of slowing down, as the next iteration has already been announced. While there's no known release date for Power Rangers Beast Morphers yet, GameSpot is taking a stroll down Morphin' memory lane and looking back at each of the Megazords from throughout the series to celebrate the franchise's 25th anniversary.We should note, this gallery isn't focused on individual zords or the myriad of bonus combinations that they result in. Trust us, we love Ultrazord too. Titanus wasn't actually any ranger's zord, though. We are putting the spotlight on the Megazords, arguably the most powerful robots in the galaxy--at least, as far as the Power Rangers are concerned.
