While the costumes and monsters are all critical parts of Power Rangers lore, the Zords continue to be one of the biggest draws for the franchise. That, of course, includes the immensely powerful Megazords, but which one is the best?

Well, ComicBook.com has some theories on the subject, so we decided to rank the Top Ten Power Rangers Megazords of all time. Whether they are listed because of their impressive weaponry and fighting prowess or just because they happen to look cool, all the Zords here are more than deserving of their inclusion.
As with everything though, this is subjective, so let’s get started with No. 10, which stems from the popular Mighty Morphin era.
Dino Ultrazord
When the might of the normal Megazord fails, it can pair up with the Dragonzord and Titanus to form the powerful Ultrazord, and honestly, at that point, you don’t stand a chance.
This essentially looks like Megazord riding a Power Rangers themed Segue, but man it is effective. Powerful blasts launch from Dragonzord’s fingers and chest plate as well as Titanus’ mouth and shoulder cannons.
The visual here is probably even more worth it than the extra firepower though, as it’s hard to not look imposing with all three of these massive things combining and rolling down the street.
You can find the official description for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers below.
After 10,000 years of imprisonment, the evil sorceress Rita Repulsa and her loyal minions are freed when astronauts on a routine mission in space accidentally open her dumpster prison on the Moon. Filled with rage, Rita decides to conquer the nearest planet: Earth. But her archnemesis, the heroic sage Zordon, has been patiently waiting in preparation for this day. With the assistance of his wisecracking robotic sidekick Alpha 5, Zordon recruits a team of five teenagers with attitude (Jason, Zack, Kimberly, Billy and Trini) to receive superpowers beyond their wildest dreams so they can defend the Earth as the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Aided by giant robotic vehicles modeled after dinosaurs called Zords, the Power Rangers fight back against the evil alien hordes of Rita Repulsa. The start of the Power Rangers phenomenon!
No. 9 Storm Megazord (Ninja Storm)
The Storm Megazordย is much more than its eye catching design, though it does excel in that department as well. The Megazord is made up of the three Ninja Storm Zords, and it can call upon them in several unique ways.
It can utilizeย its Blizzard Flurry by pulling the ripcord on the Lionzord while pulling on the Dolphinzord will produce the Dolphin Blast or Dolphin Laser. Stormy can also call upon the Power Spheres in a pinch, and if the need arises it can transform into Storm Megazordย Lightning Mode, which sheds heavy armor for speed and reflexes.

When all the Ninja Academies in the world are destroyed by Lothor, only three young students, Shane, Tori and Dustin are not captured. Their Sensei gives them the powers to become the Wind Ninja Power Rangers and the daunting mission of saving the world.
No. 8 Turbo Megazord
While it took multipleย Zords in Mighty Morphin to achieve their ultimate power form, the Turbo Megazord was pretty powerful on its own.
The design also gave the Rangers a very Transformers vibe, thanks to the vehicle themed Turbozords. Utilizing the headlights on its chest as a blaster cannon was an inspired choice, and that was only Plan B. Plan A typicallyย revolved around the Turbo Megazordย Saber, where the Megazordย would sprint forward as he slashed multiple times.
This was typically enough to dispatch most monsters, but he could also pair up with Artillatronย for heavy duty combo attacks if the situation called for it.
The official description for Power Rangers Turbo can be found below.

No. 7 Omegamax Megazord (S.P.D.)
Power Rangers S.P.D. featured some inventive Megazord designs, but the Omegamaxย Megazordย might just be the most powerful of the bunch.
As with all thingsย S.P.D., the Megazord had a police department vibe to its paint job and overall design, including a slick red visor integrated into its helmet. Aside from its looks, the Megazordย is extremely versatile.
The Omegamaxย Megazordย can reflectย almost any attack, and actually has Assassin’s Creed style hiddenย blades on its wrists, though in this case there’s isn’t exactly anything stealthy about him. Still, when you see a Zord going all Ezioย on someone from above, it’s pretty spectacular.
You can find the official descriptionย for Power Rangers S.P.D. below.
In the near future, an elite police force of Power Rangers dedicated to justice fight to save the Earth from an alien invasion led by Emperor Gruumm.
No. 6 Zeo Megazord (Zeo)
There’s a lot to love about Power Rangers Zeo, including its phenomenalย Megazord.
Zeo’sย goliathย was immensely powerful and equipped with the Zeoย Megazordย Saber. It could produce a devastating energy blast, but the Zeoย Megazordย was much more versatile upon closer inspection.
The Zeoย Megazordย would gain different abilities depending on which Battle Helmet it wore into battle. The default helmet was of Zeoย V, which allowed use of the Saber. Switching to Zeoย 1 allowed use of a largeย energy cannon which could also produceย cyclones. Zeoย II gave the Zeo Megazordย twin laser cannons, while Zeoย III afforded the Zordย machine telekinesis and a blue laser. Finally, Zeoย IV included a battering ram and gravity fields, as well green lightning bolts.
Not too shabby right?

Tommy, Billy, Adam, Rocky, Kat and Tanya are turned back to their teenage forms thanks to the Zeo Crystal. The Command Center is gone but the crystal leads them to the new Power Chamber and all but Billy take on new Zeo powers.ย
No. 5 Titano Charge Megazord (Dino Super Charge)
The Dino Super Charge Rangers had a bevy of weapons at their disposal, but few could outrank their Titanoย Charge Megazord.
In fact, this is one of the strongest Megazords ever created and can take endless amounts of punishment. If all that wasn’t enough, Titanoย wields the aptly named Titanoย Ax (seriously, what did you expect?), which allows it to execute the Final Colossal Crush. The attack draws on the spirits of the Power Rangers and the 13 Auxilaryย Charger and reminds monsters of what the term “overkill” means.
Plus, just on the design front, Titanoย is one of the coolest lookingย Zordsย ever created, and his enormous Ax only adds to this mystique.

Just when you thought the Rangers’ mission was accomplished there’s an even more difficult challenge for them to face with the arrival of a new enemy.
No. 4 Legendary Megazord (Super Megaforce)
Seriously, who doesn’t love Pirates and robots?
The correct answer is no one, and that’s why the Pirate themedย Legendary Megazordย from Power Rangers Super Megaforce is sitting pretty towards the top of this list.
He’s also extremely versatile depending on which Ranger Key he’s using. When using the Jungle Fury Keys, he can unleash several animalย spirit attacks. When using the Turbo Keys, it can use a Super Mega Slash attack, while the Megaforceย Keys allow it to call upon the other Megaforceย Ranger forms for a full assault.
When the Red Legendary Key is used, the Fire Storm Strike can be used, while the Blue Lightning Legendary Key allows use of the Lightning Aura Strike.
Plus, you know, it looks like a pirate!

Using these special Keys, they also have the amazing new ability to morph into any team of Legendary Rangers from the past.
No. 3 Samurai Megazord (Power Rangers Samurai)
The weapon of choice for most Megazords is a sword of some kind, but the Samurai Megazord does one better and wields a deadly katana and shield.
Yes, you can glance at this thing and know what it is going for, and that’s the beauty of it. From the ornamental helmet to traditionalย sheathe for its katana, there’s a lot to love about the Samurai Megazord. Still, the design is the big reason why people love it.
Still, don’t count it out in the verssaitility department. It can pair with the Samurai Battlewing, the OctoZord, SharkZord, ClawZord, LionZord, and LightZordย to form different formations, or all can form together along with the BullZord to form the Samurai Gigazord.
So yeah, it crushes, and it does it in style!

A new generation of Power Rangers must master the ancient Symbols of Samurai Power which give them control over the elements of Fire, Water, Sky, Forest, and Earth. Under the guidance of their all-knowing mentor and the aid of their devoted animal Zords, they battle the dark forces of the Netherworld and a mysterious Warrior bent on destruction.
No. 2 Predazord (Wild Force)
Everyone likes a good story of redemption, and that’s part of why the Predazord is remembered fondly.
Plus, that whole “dark wolf” vibe doesn’t hurt, but the Predazordย is more than just a slick design. The Wild Force Predazordย was originallyย controlled by Zen-Aku, but was later restored to the side of good by the Lunar Wolf Ranger.
The Predazordย features a number of weapons at his disposal, one of which is a spear mode that he gains from the Giraffe Zord. If brute force is required, he can call upon the Black Bear and Polar Bear Zordsย to form the Predazordย Double Knuckle Mode.
If things get really grim, the Predazordย can form with the other Zordsย to transform into the Predazordย Blue Moon, which gives it a new finisher called the Blue Moon Wave.
The Predazordย has looks and weapons to spare.

As the Earth’s environment weakens from modern pollution, a long forgotten evil known as Master Org reawakens to destroy Mother Nature. The mythical Wild Zords – mammoth animals of yesteryear thought to be extinct – choose a team of brave youths to defend the Earth as the Power Rangers Wild Force.
No. 1 Centaurus Phoenix Megazord (Mystic Force)
While it sadly didn’t get used very often, the Centaurusย Phoenix Megazordย from Mystic Force is probably the most powerful Zord of them all.
At least that is how it was pitched. The Megazordย is the product of the Mystic Phoenix and Catastros and wields a fire staff as the weapon of choice. Granted, it doesn’t necessarily need it, as the Zordย contains immense strength, even more than the Titan Megazord. It can also use its pony tail as a weapon (that’s got to be a first right?), as it lights on fire and can be swung around at enemies.
When those fail, it uses its staff to great effect, and can even activate an ability that grants Centaurusย additional power, because it isn’t like it had enough already.
It only appeared twice on the show, but who knows, maybe it will make a return somewhere down the line.ย
