Bashaa. The Dragonzord was, in fact, awesome. But by no means the most awesome. And what always bothered me about Siren Builder is the same thing that bothered me about RyuJin. A Sixth Ranger's Machine should combine fully with the other Mecha. Unlike you Solarus Knight who decided your Mecha shouldn't combine with anyone. What the french toast.
The best Mecha to combine all six Rangers is still Goseiger. It is. One of the worst is Abaranger, for the same reason has Kakuranger. It just attaches on the back "I have Wings!". Yea, no. A better combination for all six rangers is Hurricane despite how weird it looked.
And Matrix? Don't read this next part. Geki did a horrible job of combining things. Violet becomes.. a foot? And Rhino didn't even combine at all! And no, I am not counting that centaur-mode. Using that is lazy design and I'm looking at you Gokaiger.
Zyuranger was alright. But not the best. Dragon Ceaser just became shoulder armor. Seriously? Least it became it's own Megazord. And here's where Zeo V shuts his eyes and hums Go Gold Ranger. OhRanger didn't do a good job either. I don't know the asian names, so bare with me, but all Red Battlezord did was press his back against Zeo Mega and lay his arms on it's shoulders! And don't even get me started on Pyramidas. The Ultrazord Combination just had all the Zords slide inside the back! You couldn't even see the damn things. And it was the same issue with Dairanger and their carrier. Lazy design. (Though thinking Zeo Megazord was called Oh-Oh in Japan did make me giggle. I'll admit that.)
Lightspeed Rescue had more lazy combinations. Another case of them just going inside a bigger mech. And Carranger, same damn thing. I think Toei and Bandai use this when they can't come up with anything better. "Ah screw it guys, just have them all go inside something and let's get some soba!". Megaranger didn't combine much, they just kept introducing a new Mecha every couple episodes. Same with Timeranger. Time Fire, adding to my hatred of him, didn't even combine with the damn thing at all! Wild Force.. Wild Force went to far the other direction. There were so many Zords, so many different combinations, you didn't know what the hell was happening long enough to form an ultimate anything. SPD suffered to. Yes, Omega and SPD Mega combined. But the Ultimate was another Hide-Insider. Though I did enjoy SWAT becoming a rifle. Mystic Force didn't really combine. Boukenger did to a point. Though how you add a giant ass aircraft carrier to construction vehicles I have no idea, so I'll give them that. Go-Onger combined into a monster of WTF, but least they freaking combined! And same with Shinkenger. A giant WTF but they combined.
Goseiger did an excellent job. Except, I admit, Hyper was a bit weird. Then it had Datas so what do you expect.
Gokaiger though. Those Grand Powers were so damn hit and miss it was idiotic. Fuujin was a hit, but then he combined and missed so hard the Pope facepalmed. GaoLion missed with another freaking centaur mode but then hit, with me anyway, with the Shinken combination. Loved the giant-ass Fire Smasher. Then you have MagiDragon which.. captured people in rainbows.. okay, sure. And Dekaranger's Grand Power which was a hit and was actually useful unattached. And Go-Onger. My God. They should've shot it and put it out of it's misery. And Ryujin I mentioned. It's an awesome thing by itself but... meh otherwise.
And Go-Busters. That show went from one WTF to the next. Though I still think Lion-Oh made a better fit for the combined form than Buster. Sleeker, less parts hanging out (Buster's feet in Go-Bust-Oh). Least it combined together though.
Have I mentioned I hate Time Fire/Quantam Ranger? I did? Well, I just did again.
