Mystic Force Rangers collection

Happy Birthday to Ray "Jesse" Gordy and Cynthia Koh
Yeah before I get started, I am pretty much aware that there would be people who would laugh at me. "You so big already, still collect Power Rangers ah??" they may go. It's actually quite a common trait, since there are a few more Power Ranger collectors around the wolrd, suchas those at China Square Central (and some are older than me). You can go ahead and laugh at me all you want, but Im totally cool with it. The Power Rangers franchise is one of my top faves, and it will always be. :-)


The Mystic Rangers are a fictional team of superheroes in the television show Power Rangers: Mystic Force. Their powers are derived from beings known as the Ancient Titans, creatures with great elemental powers, symbolized by mythological creatures from various Earth mythologies on the Rangers' visors (phoenix, garuda, mermaid, sprite, minotaur).


Nick Russell the Red Mystic Ranger
Nick was the last member of the team to believe in and accept his magical powers, yet has the greatest potential for power, in that he is later discovered to be Bowen the Light, son of Leanbow and Udonna. Although he is assumed to be the leader, yet he is most reckless and emotional of the Power Rangers
Elemental power: Fire
Weapons: Mystic Sword
Zord form: Mystic Phoenix Titan. In this form, he forms the chest of Titan Megazord, Phoenix Centraur Megazord


Charlie "Chip" Thorn the Mystic Ranger
He was initially the only member of the team who believed in magic, vampires, and monsters, and was the most eager to become a Ranger. Chip can be somewhat emotional, theatrical, and away from his ease under various conditions
Elemental power: Lightning
Weapons: Mystic Crossbow, Mystic Lion Staff
Zord form: Mystic Garuda Titan, Mystic Lion


Xander Bly the Green Mystic Ranger
An Australian native moved to the United States when he was younger. Although he was initially bullied because of his accent and is sympathetic towards those who feel alone, he has since evolved into a charming and sometimes overconfident flirt.
Elemental power: Earth
Weapons: Mystic Axe, Mystic Lion Staff
Zord form: Mystic Minotaur Titan, Mystic Lion


Madison Rocca the Blue Mystic Ranger
The self-dubbed "sister with the common sense". Madison is an aspiring filmmaker and the most studious and kindest of the team, being able to befriend almost anybody.
Elemental power: Water
Weapons: Mystic Wand, Mystic Lion Staff
Zord form: Mystic Mermaid Titan, Mystic Lion


Vida Rocca the Pink Mystic Ranger
The younger and more tomboyish of the Rocca sisters. Vida enjoys being a DJ at the Rock-Porium.
Elemental power: Wind
Weapons: Mystic Wand, Mystic Lion Staff
Zord form: Mystic Phoenix Titan, Mystic Lion


Several of the Zords in Power Rangers: Mystic Force are actually the Mystic Rangers themselves (or their horses), transformed into mythological creatures. When the Rangers form their own Megazords, they appear in a cockpit, no longer part of their transformed state.


Titan Megazord
The Titan Megazord is the final combination of the Mystic Titans using spell code 1-2-6 Galwit Mysto Unios. While still technically the Titans themselves, inside the Megazord, the team appears in Ranger form and controls the Megazord from a Chess board cockpit, with each Ranger representing a chess Pawn. Wields the Titan Saber in battle, with which it performs its Mystic Spell Seal, Galaxy Slash, and Spirit of the Ancient Titans attacks. The Mystic Mermaid forms the legs, the Mystic Minotaur forms the torso, the head, and the arms, the Mystic Phoenix forms the chest, the Mystic Sprite forms the chest cavity, and the Mystic Garuda forms the wings.


Leanbow the White Wolf Warrior

Elemental power: Light (darkness as Koragg)
Weapon: Knight Saber, Shield of Light
He is able to transform into Titan size, and combine with his personal Zord Catastros to become Wolf Centaur Megazord.
(This figure is actually a repaint of Koragg the Knight Wolf, whose primary color is purple with black and gold accents.)

Catastros is a black Horse Zord controlled by Koragg the Knight Wolf. He is referred to in legend as the wild horse who could not be tamed. During the great war, Catastros was dragged into the depths of the underworld by Octomus and Koragg seemingly managed to tame it and gained Catastros as his personal Zord. To summon Catastros, Koragg recites the spell Uthe Mejor Catastros. It forms the lower half of the Knight Wolf Centaur mode while its head becomes Koragg's lance. For the Centaurus Wolf/Phoenix Megazord formation, Catastros forms the majority of the body while its tail & head each form the helmet for either formation while the other combines with the neck to form the Lance.


Brightstar is a white horse-like Zord very similar to Catastros, with the noticeable exception that Brightstar is a Unicorn, as the large golden horn on her forehead indicates. She can travel between dimensions, including the Underworld, and can combine with the Mystic Phoenix to become the Phoenix Unizord. Brightstar is apparently an old friend of Daggeron. She also looks more lifelike.


Phoenix Unizord
The Phoenix Unizord is the combination of the Mystic Phoenix and Brightstar. It is essentially a white version of the Centaurus Phoenix Megazord. Brightstar's head forms the lance and its tail combines with the Mystic Phoenix to become the Megazord's head. Brightstar's body forms the majority of the Megazord mode. Its signature attack has it flying into the sky and then falling back down again head first with his staff with the Unicorn head end, called the Final Strike. It was only used once ever, that being in "Heir Apparent II" when it was used to destroy the Chimera. Before combining with Brightstar, the Mystic Phoenix's color changes to have more gold accents.
