Opening Credits

Source Description Edit Note
ABA #33.

Thornox twirls an energy whip around and flings it at the three Rangers, wrapping around them and forming into green vines which bind around their arms. Blue struggles, Yellow speaks, then Red reaches his holstered Thundermax Blaster, firing it at Thornox, as do his teammates, bursting him. His binds dropped, Red whips his Tyranno Staff around and leaps forth with it, only for Thornox to grab it, jerk it out of Red's hands, then use it against Red sparkily! He's flung across the courtyard, where his teammates regroup around him. Thornox then places a purple golf ball on a tee, and uses the Tyranno Staff as a golf club. Each Ranger reacts, as he swings the staff and shoots the balls at each of them explosively.
