    Hey everyone, I bought a big lot of vintage Power Rangers and Transformer parts direct from Japan. There were some really decent pieces in there (Black Zarak!) but I still have a few I haven't been able to identify. Some of these will be Power Rangers, some might be Maskman or similar, but all should be from 80s era roughly. Any ideas on any of these parts?

    That double-barrel, red cannon looks a lot like something that came with Fortress Maximus.

    Edit: And I think you have Metalhawk's crazy gray sword there, with the two reverse prongs on the blade (middle right).

    Amazing, that is indeed Metalhawk's sword, thank you! A few more to get, not sure if there are any more Transformers though, maybe one of the guns is...

    The white sword is from Ohranger/Power Rangers Zeo, for the red ranger. It’s missing a star piece that attaches to that peg. I’m not sure which specific Ohranger/Zeo red figure it goes with though, since there’s usually multiple released. I will say it doesn’t look like one that came with any of the American figures.

    EDIT: It almost definitely came from the Red ranger flip-head from Ohranger, but yeah its definitely missing a piece.

    The gun looks like the one from the Gundam MK-II. Could be from any of the MSIA figures...

    here's how the MK-II guns looks like

    Thanks guys, got the Gundam one now. Can't find that the Red Ranger sword exactly, as I say they were all from Japan so would have to be a Japanese release. Still have a few more to crack!
