Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’re looking at the most morphenomenal threads donned by the Teens with Attitude in the TV series, comics, and movies. What were your favorite Morphin threads? Let us know in the comments.

#30: Solar Rangers

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (2016-20; 2022-24)
Outside of space and time, there is a Void without any connection to the Morphin Grid. But utilizing the power of the Solarix, the Void is guarded by its own team of Rangers – the Solar Rangers. The two primary Rangers, Ellarien and Remi, sport unique colors of Purple and Orange, respectively. Additionally, both suits are ordained with gold trimmings, a starry pattern giving them an extra stellar look, and helmets loosely inspired by the unadapted Sentai, “Kyuranger”. When a ragtag team of familiar Rangers enters the void, they get their own Solar upgrades, plus some borrowed elements from their own suits to make their intergalactic makeover feel more personal.

#29: Dino Fury Evil Blue Ranger

“Power Rangers Cosmic Fury” (2023)
Using the Dino Fury outfits as a basis, the Cosmic Fury suits offered new unique colors and a new interstellar flair. Arguably, the one who got the coolest upgrade was Ollie while Lord Zedd brainwashed him. His diabolical makeover gave his Dino Fury ensemble a devious upgrade – complete with an intimidating shield with fierce shoulder pads, black gloves and boots, and a squid emblem on his belt to symbolize his new masters. His costume also turned a darker shade of blue to emphasize his new darker attitude. Overall, his new look painted him more like a war general; but once he was freed from Zedd’s spell, he happily traded his evil threads to join his Cosmic teammates.

#28: Squadron Rangers

“Power Rangers Super Megaforce” (2014) & "Power Rangers Universe" (2021-22)
One of “Super Megaforce’s” more head-scratching decisions was introducing unadapted Sentai suits as ‘new powers never seen on earth’. Thus the Fivemen became the Supersonic Rangers, and the Dairangers became the Squadron Rangers. The Boom Studios took this concept and ran with it, giving the Squadron Rangers a much more in-depth backstory. This is good because it was a crime to leave the Dairanger suits untouched. With a nice balance of white, gold, and their primary colors, along with the helmets beautifully decorated to represent different mythical creatures. They even made their own Black Ranger to make the lineup feel more unique, showing the creative possibilities when giving unadapted Sentai suits a chance in the spotlight.

#27: Overdrive Rangers

“Power Rangers Operation Overdrive” (2007)
We all know how divisive fan reactions to “Operation Overdrive” are, but if there’s one thing most can agree on it’s how cool the suits turned out. The core five members share the same color scheme as the OG team –which makes sense given that it’s a 15th anniversary season- with additional silver trimming for a vibrant touch, and stylish vehicular helmets. Obviously, the Mercury Ranger is the one who stands out the most – a unique blend of silver, orange, and blue, with shoulder pads to really make his ensemble pop. Love or hate the season, there’s no denying that the Overdrive Rangers’ treasure hunt was done with a sense of style.

#26: Dimension X Rangers

"Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II" (2022-23)
Anyone can be a Power Ranger, so why not the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? In the original crossover mini-series, our jaws dropped seeing the Turtles morph into the Mighty Morphin Rangers –though it was only temporary. However, in the sequel mini-series, the Turtles, along with Casey and April, get a second chance at joining the battle as a new, original fleet of Rangers – the Dimension X Rangers. Along with the colors being a better match for their respective Ranger, the suits give off an extreme cyber-warrior aesthetic, with the Turtles’ shells adding an extra protective layer. It's a shame they had to return the morphers, as the suits were way too radical to give up.

#25: 2017 Movie Rangers

“Power Rangers” (2017)
In 2017, Lionsgate brought the Power Rangers back to the big screen with a cinematic retelling of “Day of the Dumpster”. Of course, with a modern re-imagining comes new suits. While the dinosaur aesthetics of the original are reduced, the original colors are still alive and well, with the addition of glowing blue diamond chest plates emphasizing the powers’ alien heritage. Additionally, as much as we love the classic spandex, the armor on these new dudes looks way more protective -which is helpful when dealing with a Rita Repulsa that isn’t playing around. Speaking of, we even get a brief shot of the Green Ranger, giving us a taste of what could’ve been if we ever got a sequel.

#24: Dino Fury Rangers

“Power Rangers Dino Fury” (2021-22)
Because Dinosaurs worked so well the first three times, why not go for round four? While they follow the same color palette as “Dino Charge”, the six Dino Fury Rangers’ suits carry a more medieval flair. Along with a balance of gold, silver, and their primary colors, their visors are a creative combination of dinosaur teeth and a knight's helmet. Void Knight especially carries the motif well with his heavily armored purple and silver equipment. But making the biggest fashion statement of the team is the Green Ranger, Izzy, who deliberately rips her skirt off just because it doesn’t fit her style -we could all learn a thing or two from her.

#23: Lord Drakkon

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (2016-20; 2022-24)
Undeniably one of the comics’ breakout stars was the evil counterpart to the great Tommy Oliver, Lord Drakkon. Drakkon’s suit is a twisted amalgamation of his Green and White Ranger powers – golden spikes along a green shield, fangs over the mouthpiece, and a piercing red visor. We see Drakkon’s suit evolve throughout the series – stealing elements from other Rangers’ suits, donning a cape to symbolize his ultimate power, and even having half of his helmet damaged, representing his fractured mental state. No matter what changes, Drakkon’s outfit is a symbol of a hero who’s fallen from grace, a trait he tried sharing with his world’s Kimberly, aka the Ranger Slayer.

#22: Psycho Rangers

“Power Rangers in Space” (1998)
One of the most terrifying Ranger teams, the Psycho Rangers live up to their namesake – crazy obsessed with taking down their respective counterparts. Suffice it to say, their designs command ferocity and viciousness – jaggedy shoulders and helmets, dark, piercing eye-like visors, mouthpieces that look like beastly teeth, and a heavy emphasis on black. Of course, this ghastly Ranger ensemble only covers up their true appearances – vile, multicolored monsters based on bugs, plants, and elements. The Psycho Ranger look was so iconic that the Space Rangers tried to copy it with their own fake Psycho Silver, and the Boom Studios Comic created Psycho Green, who is just as menacing and destructive as his TV counterparts –maybe even more so.

#21: HyperForce Rangers

“Power Rangers Hyperforce” (2017-18) & “Power Rangers Unlimited: HyperForce” (2023)
“Power Rangers HyperForce” was an Actual Play web series where a few familiar, well-known faces act out an original Rangers season with their respective characters. The Hyperforce team appeared in spin-off material and even got their own spotlight in the Boom Studios comic. From the concept art alone, these Rangers feel fresh out of the show itself taking inspiration from “S.P.D.” and “Time Force”. The suits balance black with the Rangers’ primary colors, with the much-appreciated addition of silver shoulder pads. The helmets especially stand out with the Greek Mythology aesthetic, and the lineup’s color choice pays homage to the original “Mighty Morphin” team -especially with the Green Ranger.

#20: Omega Rangers

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (2016-20) “Saban’s Go Go Power Rangers” (2017-20) & “Power Rangers” (2020-)
When Jason, Zack, and Trini left for their new mission in outer space in the comics, they – along with their new ally, Kiya - were given a whole new set of powers as the Omega Ranger. The suits for this new team are more alchemic based – a medieval-styled flair with golden gauntlets for their morphers. The costumes are equal in design, each with a very nice blend of each Rangers’ respective colors, gold & dark grey. However, there's a clever little touch to make every suit unique – each helmet has a distinct stone on his/her helmet that symbolizes their respective element – earth, air, fire, and water. So wait, is this “Power Rangers” or “Avatar: The Last Airbender”?

#19: Beast Morphers Rangers

“Power Rangers Beast Morphers” (2019-20)
Once Hasbro took the reins of the franchise, they brought with them some new innovations to the Ranger ensemble with Beast Morphers. Gone are the days of colorful spandex, now replaced with colorful biker leather –a material never previously used for the costumes. The helmets –each one resembling their respective animal spirits- also have metallic, colored visors that almost look like sunglasses –giving the Rangers a very secret agent-like vibe to go with their leathery new duds. However, there’s still one thing that doesn’t make sense to us – why call the Gold Ranger’s animal spirit a mantis when he’s clearly designed after a beetle?

#18: Ninja Steel Rangers

“Power Rangers Ninja Steel” (2017) & “Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel” (2018)
While the actual “ninja” theme of Ninja Steel was toned down, the suits stood out in the flashiest of ways. Each Ranger’s helmet visor is modeled after their respective Ninja Power Star, and the Core Five members each come with a colorful sash worn outside the suit rather than embedded into it. However, taking the boldest fashion choice of the team is Levi, the Gold Ranger. As a country-western musician, his Ranger ensemble comes fitted with a cowboy hat-like helmet and poncho –alluding to the classic gunslingers of the old west. Couple that with the shogun-like Lion Fire Armor, and you have a stylish farewell to the Neo-Saban Era.

#17: Lightspeed Rescue Rangers

“Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue” (2000)
After a long journey through space, it’s time to return to Earth with a new team of Rangers assembled by the government – the Lightspeed Rescue team. While the colorful hazard-striped suits aren’t particularly exciting, this season brought with it two major innovations to the franchise costume-wise. The first being the retractable visors, which opened a whole new door to emoting without needing to take off their helmets. The second, and most notable, is the very first non-Sentai-based Ranger – the Titanium Ranger. With his gleaming silver suit and gold trims, stripes, and shoulder pads, he easily stands out among the other Rescue Rangers in the best ways.

#16: Ranger Operators

“Power Rangers RPM” (2009)
Yes, even a season as dark as RPM feels incomplete without colorful spandex… err, I mean “NOT” spandex. Whatever you want to call it, the Ranger Operator Series suits are inspired by a unique blend of animals and vehicles. The helmets take inspiration from each Ranger’s respective zord animal, with embedded spinning wheels and turbines on the sides that rotate at a lightning-fast speed. The suits also embrace the vehicular aesthetic with straps along the torsos that vaguely resemble seatbelts and safety harnesses, along with wheels/gears on the gloves and boots that spin as fast as real tires –and can be handy in combat. Functional and uniquely designed… but are we REALLY sure it’s not spandex?

#15: Dino Charge Rangers

“Power Rangers Dino Charge” (2015) & “Power Rangers Dino Super Charge” (2016)
Dino Charge and Dino Super Charge saw a return to the franchise’s roots of dinosaur-themed rangers but brought a new sense of style to the legacy. For starters, with ten Rangers on one team, you have a bigger variety of colors –except, surprisingly, for a Yellow Ranger… unless you count Ivan, the Gold Ranger. In addition, their visors are modeled after their respective dino’s mouths, and their torsos are decorated with teeth like a sash –with at least one shoulder pad for added flare. Tyler’s T-Rex Super Charge mode also adds an extra zing with a Carnival-like aesthetic that is guaranteed to make the battle get wild.

#14: Zeo Rangers

“Power Rangers Zeo” (1996)
Let’s jump back a bit in time to examine the Zeo Rangers, who are all decked out in your basic 80's punk band ensemble. They scaled back the complexity of the helmets preferring just a smooth egg-like head protector but with a twist: they have shapes for their visors. Each shape represents their ranger number by the number of sides they have. Get it, The Red Ranger is zeo Ranger 5 and his star has … ahh nevermind. All in all a striking ensemble sure to leave your enemies blinded by sheer awesome.

#13: Turbo Rangers

“Power Rangers Turbo” (1997)
RPM showcased some interesting automobile-themed designs, but it wasn’t the first Power Rangers series to do so. In “Power Rangers Turbo”, we see the rangers ride around in souped up vehicles, sporting outfits that got overhauled for a race car design. Plenty of black trim and the helmets have a little additional design in chrome silver, just like actual cars. Perhaps the more controversial design choice was the inclusion of what looked like a high visibility reflector on the chests, something that worked in the Japanese series “CarRanger”.

#12: Jungle Fury Rangers

“Power Rangers Jungle Fury” (2008)
By harnessing their animal spirits, the Jungle Fury Rangers are well armed to reflect their respective martial arts style and animal. The main trio is dressed aerodynamically with their unique feline stripes and spots, and no belts –just wait until you see them literally flying with built-in jets in Jungle Master Mode. Meanwhile, the Wolf Ranger has a very kickboxer-like motif with metallic wrist and ankle wraps, while the Rhino Ranger sports a Japanese Karate robe-like ensemble –complete with a literal black belt. The ones who really take the cake, however, are the Spirit Rangers. With their completely unique designs, they practically revolutionized the US-exclusive Ranger suit game.

#11: Space Rangers

“Power Rangers in Space” (1998)
This cosmic iteration of the Power Rangers picked up where Turbo left off, with the rangers now sporting some appropriate space suits. They use the same color palette as the original series but with color boxes along the front of their torso, like rank in the army. The 6th ranger also saw the first use of a silver outfit, and this style ditches the colored boxes in favor of... computer chips? They also have these weird orb things on their helmets which were features used in the show’s Japanese counterpart “Megaranger” to display their symbols. But here they’re basically sunroofs for your helmet.

#10: Galaxy Rangers

“Power Rangers Lost Galaxy” (1999)
As the Zordon era ends, a new chapter begins as we follow the Lost Galaxy Rangers through the deepest recesses of space. First, the elephant in the room – not everyone is crazy about the “Charlie Brown” stripes on the plain white torso for the main five Rangers. We admit it’s a little distracting, but the nicely-sculpted helmets make up for the rest of the suits’ plainness. Of course, the one who really steals the show costume-wise is the Magna Defender – fully protected in plated, majestic armor like the intergalactic knight that he is. Also, he gets extra bonus points for being the very first Ranger to don a cape. Capes are cool, enough said.

#9: Super Megaforce Rangers

“Power Rangers Super Megaforce” (2014)
Not since “Mighty Morphin” has there been such a brazen disregard for the English language: Power Rangers Super-Mega-Force. But what's new here? Well the theme according to the title is totally unclear, but as for the outfits, they’re going for a pirate look. That means high top boots with folded rims, that means skull and crossbones on the chest, and that means popped collars for all. Oh and everyone gets a captain Jack Sparrow pea coat and dainty white gloves.

#8: Dino Thunder Rangers

“Power Rangers Dino Thunder” (2004)
From day one Power Rangers had the whole dinosaur angle covered. But this series really drives the point home. You like dinosaurs? Well we've got em. They have stripes down the sides, dinosaur prints on the chest and gold trim all over. Their helmets are a lot like the originals but sleeker, more stream-lined. Though the standout design has to go to the White Ranger, with a terrifying red visor and a tooth-like black and white design, he’s definitely someone you don’t want to meet in a back alley.

#7: Wild Force Rangers

“Power Rangers Wild Force” (2002)
This tenth iteration of Rangers remained faithful to the Super Sentai version, right down to the morphing sequence. This year’s ranger outfit comes complete with gold bands across the chest, and just like Zeo, said gold bars represent their ranger number. This time around white is the new pink although her skirt and collar retains some pink strips, no comment there . Also, animal helmets! That’s where the budget went: these helmets come with their own specific animal designs.

#6: Space Patrol Delta B-Squad Rangers

“Power Rangers S.P.D.” (2005)
Now we're really onto something. These B-Squad suits were Tailor-made and form fitting like a superhero should have. As for the helmets they brought back the silver mouthpiece but omitted the weird lip molds. Half of the torso is now black and once again, they're all numbered! We also got the badass looking SWAT gear which gives the suits a military aesthetic. Oh and given the police theme of the show, the suits have flashing lights galore.

#5: Mighty Morphin Rangers

“Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” (1993-95)
A lot of you might be surprised not to see this one as number one just by sheer popularity, but this isn’t a popularity contest: it’s a fashion show … with sparks and lasers. So let’s get into this. Crazy cool helmets with silver mouthpiece molds, giant diamond shapes on the front, cool dinosaur designs on the top, what's not to like? Everyone gets a pair of knee high boots to facilitate ass kicking. But come on, we all wanted to be the Green Ranger as a kid with that sweet looking overshield. Don’t Lie.

#4: Ninja Storm Rangers

“Power Rangers Ninja Storm” (2003)
Ninja storm blends the classic ranger attire with, you guessed it, ninjas. The helmet visors are shaped like the classic representation of a ninja, and they can even retract to reveal the rangers’ faces. However on top of the cool designs what makes this one stand out is that the team is actually formed from 2 different Ranger Teams, The Wind Rangers with the gray sleeves and leggings. And the Thunder Rangers, with gold shoulder pads and knee guards. And just like the original series the 6th Green Ranger brings back the gold overshield.

#3: Time Force Rangers

“Power Rangers Time Force” (2001)
These outfits are a classic example of looking stylish while fighting. With a futuristic theme their visors are completely covered by a downward arrow shape, Contrary to popular belief however, the actors had no trouble seeing out of them as they’re actually tinted visors. And while other suits have incorporated their morphers into the suits in the past as subtly as a walkman, here, they fit like a stylish watch, which just so happens to blend well with silver bracers over the forearms. Kind of like Wonder Woman, but way cooler.

#2: Samurai Rangers

“Power Rangers Samurai” (2011) & “Power Rangers Super Samurai” (2012)
Say what you want about Samurai and Super Samurai, but what they lacked in writing, they made up for with their suits. Along with the slick, highlighted boots and robe-like torsos, the Rangers are decorated with visors modeled after Japanese kanji –modeled after each Ranger’s respective element. Should the need arise, one of the Rangers can go Super Samurai or Shark Attack Mode, which gifts them an elegant white or red two-tailed cloak with dazzling golden highlights. Even in the zord cockpits, the Rangers are well-dressed, with protective armor plating inspired by the 1995 Ranger Movie suits, and –occasionally- the heavily-decorated, all-powerful Shogun Mode… why couldn’t we see this mode in battle more often?

#1: Mystic Rangers

“Power Rangers Mystic Force” (2006)
Fans swarmed the original list’s comments section about the Mystic Force costumes, and it’s easy to see why. The core five suits carry a refined wizardly motif with a perfect balance of white and color, helmet visors modeled after mythical creatures, and capes… capes are awesome; just ask Chip. Meanwhile, Solaris Knight and Wolf Warrior are heavily armored like the brave and noble knights they are, and the White Ranger carries the grace and authority of a high-level sorceress –especially with those shoulder pads. With an amazing blend of grand mysticism and multicolored combat, we may've kicked ourselves for not featuring the Mystic Rangers in the original list, but we're sure this top spot more than makes up for it.
