Well time has gone on since I did my original list, time for an update!

Top 5 Suit Designs
5. Jetman - Yeah yeah I know it's a little cliche to put Jetman on here. But honestly they're just great looking suits to me. They capture the bird theme very well, and have a simplicity to them that the military suits always do. So the fact that they combined that aspect, as well as the main gimmick of the show into one great package is a great feat. I honestly don't have a favorite suit from the show, as I like them all.

4. Dairanger - If any Sentai ever lured me in with it's suit designs, it was Dairanger. I took one look at the helmets and knew I had to watch the show. I love these suits (as well as the show) that before the Dairangers got their figuart releases, they were in my top 5 shows that need the figuarts treatment. They genuinely look like martial arts garb, and they look pretty for doing so. They're easily the best attempt at doing so sorry Gekiranger). The helmets though is what steals the show for me. They look so bloody awesome. My personal favorite helmet is Ryu Ranger. But the star of the show is definitely Kiba Ranger. Just epic. 'nuff said.

3. Abaranger - Abaranger is probably in my least favorite Sentais at the moment, and it's Power Rangers counterpart is my second least favorite season of all time. But the suits however are some of my favorites. They're probably my favorite suits from the dinosaur Sentais (though I don't particular know what series I'd give the title of best to). Like Dairanger, the helmets are what do it for me. Until AbareBlack and especially AbareKiller show up, then the awesomeness gets kicked up to 11. I love all of the helmets, as well as the other suits for their simple yet effect look, but AbareKiller and AbareBlack are what solidifies the suits into the number 3 spot.

2. Gokaiger - While these are my number two on this list, let me just say that I do consider these the best and most perfect Sentai suits ever. Before I even knew what Gokaiger or much about Sentai was, I knew the Gokaiger suits and immediately knew they were a pirate team. The suits showcase the theme so well that I could show them to a 3 year old and have them tell me that they're pirates. They're simplistic but flashy, get the show's theme worked perfectly into the design, just all around perfect. However this is a personal list, and while the Gokaiger suits as I said are perfect, one team beats them personally.

1. Gaoranger - There's a reason I constantly say Bandai should make them figuarts. I may not like Wild Force a whole heck of a lot, and I haven't seen all of Gao yet. But these suits are plain fucking epic. Gokaiger may be the best suits ever and I will not deny how perfect they are. But for me, the Gaorangers are my favorite suits. They're simple, effective at getting across the show's theme, and have the most bitching animal helmets ever. My personal favorites are Gao Blue and Gao Silver.

Top 5 Individual Suit Designs
5. BullBlack - I was SUPER into knights when I was a wee little boy. So combining knights and Power Rangers makes me an instant fan design wise. Thus BullBlack finds his way on my list (Magna Defender is a way cooler name though). It does a good job of making him look like a regular old Sentai member but also making him look like a knight. As I kid he was my favorite suit ever for these reasons. He's still one of my favorites now, but is outmatched by the other four.

4. Gouraiger - You know every time I look at these suits, I think they're more samurai like then ninja like. But that's just me. Anyways, I just love these suits. Have ever since I saw Ninja Storm all those years ago. They just fit the show so well. And even though I think they have a more samurai look to them, I'm going to just come out and say it, I think the Gouraigers are the best suits in both ninja Sentai. I love the dark coloring on them, I love their armor, I love the helmets, I simply just love them.

3. King Ranger - He's called King Ranger for a reason folks. He genuinely comes off as looking regal and king like. But just because he lives up to his name doesn't mean he makes my 3rd spot that way. Oh no, as King Ranger has one of the most boss suits to come out of the 1990s. In fact I'll just say he is the best suit out of the 1990s. From the way the gold looks on his armor, to the design on his helmet (you can tell what catches my attention first don't you?) As many others have said before me, he's just a bad mother fucker in the suit department. And it's that bad assitude which gives him my number 3 spot.

2. Shurikenger - Ahhh yes, my favorite character of Sentai from my favorite Sentai. It was only a matter of time before you showed up. I kinda find it funny that 10 years after Zyuranger that we got a season with a suit very similar to one of it's own. But honestly I think Shurikenger has the better look then Dragon Ranger (FORGIVE ME BURAI!). Once again he has a more samurai look then the other five (they called him Samurai for a reason in Ninja Storm), and that's part of the appeal for me as I love Samurai armor. His helmet design is great and the symbol on it superb. His super/extra mode is great looking to, but I'd be lying if I said I preferred this armor less version to the armored one. Not much else to say so....time for my number 1!

1. Wolzord - If BullBlack is the prime example of combining knights with Power Rangers, Wolzord is the masterpiece. I don't know where to begin in describing my love for this suit. The color, well purple is my favorite color so it gets points easily that way. The knight part is also a big part of it. Just everything about Wolzord is appealing to me when it comes to his design. He's just, he's just, perfect. To me Wolzord is a perfect design, both in his evil and fire modes. Everything about him makes me swoon from the epicness. I could go on and on about him. But I won't. I'll just end it right here by saying that Wolzord is without a shadow of a doubt my favorite Sentai suit design EVER!
