Never understood why Iron Lion Mask of Ep. 41 was destroyed by coin with a swastika on it! And Diamond Mask of Ep. 43 looks like he's wearing a headdress.

And then you have WTF designs like Big Ear Mask and "But why?" designs like Fallen Leaves Mask.

The Black Cross Kamen are all over the place! Some definitely didn't age well and I'm curious as to what they were thinking of.

According to the wiki;

"After Temujin (the VotW) passes him off as an idiot, (Iron Lion Mask) faces the Gorengers in combat, but becomes upset when he doesn't have a medal for his final, ultimate finisher. The Gorengers use Gorenger Storm to create a medal for him, which turns into the Gorenger Storm ball within his stomach, exploding and taking him out." https://powerrangers.fandom.com/wiki/Iron_Lion_Mask
