Just to make things perfectly clear, the Rangers (I mean the original Mighty Morphin' guys, by the way) would be combined into Megazord for this battle. So who do you think would win? I say the Rangers.

I go with Voltron, because Voltron can fly and has some actual experienced pilots, rather than the Power Ranger's "teenagers with attitude".

What level of experience & time passing by are we going by in this thread?

Are we putting newbie rookie power rangers verses experienced veteran voltron pilots?

are we putting the most experienced versions of the MMPR pilots against the most expereienced versions of the voltron pilots?

are we just using the MMPR zords 5 dinosaurs zords against voltron?

or are we using the 5 MMPR zords+the dragon zord+the other huge zord combined verse the voltron?

Voltron.

Anything else is just a rip-off.

I'm talking the most experienced for both. Honestly, I've never seen a whole lot of Voltron. I just didn't like it enough to watch a whole lot (not saying Power Rangers is better, but having watched it all the time as a little kid, it still has nostalgic value.)

I think we also need the following below:

Height & width measurements of the Megazord & Voltron

How heavy are the mega zord & how heavy is voltron

What kinds of materials is the megazord made out of. what kind of materials is voltron made out of.

How sharp,strong & what materials the weapons are made out of.

how strong & powerful is the average bad guys that fights the megazord & voltron.

What level of training did the human pilots receive.

when these zords or voltron get badly damaged,can they be easily fixed. do the constant repairs on the zords or voltron keep making them more inferior each time. or do the repairs give the zords or voltron upgrades to make them better than before.

Even if you take away the Blazing Sword, Lion or Vehicle Voltron wins easily.

Power Rangers. Dragonzord comes in and pushes the odds in their favor.

Fri Sep 16, 2011 10:21 pm

Voltron for win.

Sat Sep 17, 2011 2:48 pm

Neither would win as MegasXLR would come Tear off the legs of lion voltron, and the legs of the megazord and put them on. Then the dragonzord would come and Coop would Put that on. MEGAS ALWAYS WINS :KREMZEEK:

people voting for MMPR are 90's babies without the same nostalgia and sense of AWESOME that the older generation has.

Looking at ONLY statistics and trying to throw all of my own personal nostalgia aside, I would say:

In a person vs. person fight, it would be a close fight but I would have to give the edge to the MMPR...they were teenages granted improved strength, agility and fighting ability by their connection to Zordon. Although the Space Explorers (as they were known before being dubbed the "Voltron Force") were a specially trained combat unit, magic enhancement would trump.

However, in a robot vs. robot fight, Voltron has the clear edge. The individual Zords were never shown to have any individual fighting ability, indeed were only shown on screen for at most 60 seconds and then only as a precursor to forming the MegaZord. The lions, however, each had a full weapons compliment with flame-breath, missiles, mouth-blades, etc...and often spent alot of time ripping stuff up BEFORE needing to form Voltron.

The guys posting a "Toy versus Toy" comparison...asking about materials and comparative sizes, etc...clearly Voltron has the edge here too. The MMPR toys were made in the classic "90's cheap" mode...out of light plastic and cheap molds. Voltron, as we all remember, was diecast metal and weighed like 20 pounds when you put him together. If you assembled both robots and held them apart one in each hand and rammed them together, Megazord would shatter into a bazillion pieces and Voltron would'nt suffer a scratch.

This comment sounds strangely familiar... /:)

If you remember, they weren't "with attitude" at all. And the PR would actually have a chance. The tank mode rocks.

Well, being a fan of both, I'd honestly say Power Rangers. With Voltron, the pilots were trained to operate it. With the megazord, the Power Rangers were just given the knowledge of how to pilot it and it felt natural to them, just by activatng their powers for the first time. I'd say I'd trust whoever naturaly knows how to operate something rather than someone who was trained. If you think about it, it makes alot of sense. I can deffinately get deep into this conversation if you want.

EDIT: Forgive me for not adding this to my last post. I was kinda half-assed multitasking at the moment
