At the recent Parramatta Collector's Fair I was a little disheartened as one of the regular Sellers that we from Sydney like to deal with was not present and I had hoped to make a couple of purchases from him, so with that disappointment in mind when I came across this gem I almost jumped with utter delight both with the excitement of finding something at the fair that I was hoping to find but also for how much the seller was willing to part with it for.
The seller had initially had this as part of a complete 'Trio' for $150 and it was entirely complete, but to my astonishment he was willing to split the items up and was open to reasonable offers; to which the $70 he accepted for this item almost caused me to choke with glee as it was really more than reasonable but IMO a thorough steal!
On Sunday, the 22nd of November 2011, I acquired one of my personal Grails:
- Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Carrier Zord - Titanus!
...Allowing me to finally obtain a toy that I've wanted ever since my childhood; for when Transformers was taking it's then perceived final breaths with Generation 2, Power Rangers was right there to pick up the slack with awesome Giant Robots and in this particular case:
- Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers - The Ultra Megazord!
Now all I need to do is to try and acquire the missing bits and pieces from the 'base' Zords and purchase the rather more screen accurate ReproLabel's sticker sets and I'll be thoroughly content with my Power Rangers collection...
Maybe a White Tiger Zord too but we'll see.![]()

*JEALOUS*
Lucky duck :P my Dragonzord was sold without my permission when I was like 12
See, I had younger brothers who were rather destructive with their methods of play so I never had to really worry about my toys being sold/given away as they were 9 times out of 10 broken and hence ended up in the bin.
(Still that's no substitute to the feeling of loss, I know, Accel)
I'm glad to see though that I wasn't alone in having the original Ultra Megazord as a Grail, I was truly lucky to be in the right place and time TB so I wish you the best of luck in your searches dude as I know how hard he is to come by and at a decent price too.
Just make sure you've got the shelf space guys because this Mecha Monstrosity is huge and takes up a crap load of room, my Thunder Megazord and Panosh Voltron are feeling a little cramped at the moment.![]()

Super Robot Chogokin: Magiking [Mahou Sentai Magiranger] otherwise known as Titan Megazord from Mystic Force.
looks really sweet to me. Too bad I don't collect these.
