Two legendary Dragon Mechs finally square off in this fight to the death!
The Dragonzord was the zord linked to the green Mighty Morphin power coin. Due to its unique construction and controls among the Dinozords, it was controlled at various points by Tommy Oliver the Mighty Morphin Green Ranger, Jason Lee Scott the Red Ranger, Tommy's clone Tom Oliver, and several villains.
The Dragonzord was the personal Zord of the Green Ranger. Whether it was created by Zordon or Rita Repulsa remains unknown, but it was originally on Rita's side when she gifted her Dragon Power Coin to Tommy Oliver, turning him into her own personal Power Ranger, the Green Ranger.
When Tommy later defected from Rita's side and joined Zordon and the Power Rangers, he continued to use the Dragonzord in battle, until his powers began to drain away thanks to Lord Zedd and the green candle. He transferred the Green Ranger powers and thus control of the Dragonzord to Jason, the Red Ranger, before going on something of a wilderness sabbatical. When Tommy returned to active Ranger duty as the White Ranger, he was equipped with a new personal Zord, in the form of the White Tigerzord, which would later clash with the Dragonzord as it was controlled by a clone of the Green Ranger whom Rita had created. In the aftermath of the battle, the Dragonzord returned to its home at the bottom of the ocean. It has not been seen since.
Mechagodzilla (メカゴジラ Mekagojira) is a fictional mecha character that first appeared in Jun Fukuda's 1974 kaiju film Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla, the 14th film in Toho's Godzilla franchise. In its debut appearance, Mechagodzilla is depicted as an extraterrestrial villain that confronts Godzilla. In subsequent iterations, Mechagodzilla is usually depicted as a man-made weapon designed to defend Japan from Godzilla. In all incarnations, the character is portrayed as a robotic doppelgänger with a vast array of weaponry, and along with King Ghidorah, is commonly considered to be an archenemy of Godzilla.
Mechagodzilla (メカゴジラ Mekagojira) is a mecha that first appeared in the 1974 Godzilla film, Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla.
To date, there have been four distinct incarnations of Mechagodzilla featured in the Godzilla franchise. The first version of the character was introduced in the 1974 film Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla, where it was a creation of the evil Black Hole Planet 3 Aliens designed to destroy Godzilla and conquer the Earth. This Mechagodzilla returned in Terror of Mechagodzilla, where it was rebuilt by its alien masters and fought alongside the monster Titanosaurus. Mechagodzilla was reintroduced for the Heisei series in the 1993 film Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II. This Mechagodzilla was a weapon built by G-Force, a military branch of the United Nations, to defend mankind from Godzilla, and was constructed using components recovered from the remains of Mecha-King Ghidorah. The third iteration of Mechagodzilla, known more commonly as Kiryu, first appeared in the film Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla in 2002. Like the Heisei Mechagodzilla, Kiryu was a human-built weapon, this time controlled by the JSDF. Kiryu was unique among the Mechagodzillas in that he was a true cyborg, constructed around the remains of the original Godzilla that appeared in 1954. Kiryu was susceptible to becoming possessed by the first Godzilla's spirit, leading him to act autonomously and run wild. Kiryu returned in the following film, Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S., where he again did battle with Godzilla, this time with the assistance of Mothra and her twin larvae. A fourth incarnation of Mechagodzilla made a brief appearance in GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters, and returned in the second entry in the GODZILLA anime trilogy. This Mechagodzilla was constructed by human and Bilusaludo scientists under the United Earth in order to destroy Godzilla. Unfortunately, Mechagodzilla was lost before it could be activated when Godzilla destroyed its production facility in Hamamatsu in 2046. However, the machine's head remained intact, and over the next 20,000 years its Nanometal expanded and proliferated, gradually forming a replica of its facility dubbed Mechagodzilla City. Outside of the Godzilla series, Mechagodzilla made an appearance in the 2018 film adaptation of Ready Player One.
