under Power Rangers, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights

We asked the TokuNation.com forum members earlier this year to rate their Top 10 Power Rangers of all time, and from that list, we’d create the TokuNation Users’ Top 20 Power Rangers of All Time list to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers. Rising in popularity the last few years it should be no surprise that taking home the #10 spot on our user-created list is Sean CW Johnson, aka Carter Grayson, the Lightspeed Rescue Red Ranger!

Carter Grayson was one of the top fire fighters in the city of Mariner Bay. His bravery and willingness to rush head first in to danger captured the eye of Captain Mitchell, who unbeknownst to everyone, was heading the Operation Lightspeed program. Carter was recruited to become the Red Ranger for the Lightspeed Rescue, an organization created to fight back the evil demons led by Queen Bansheera and Diabolico.

It is Carter who leads his team to defeat Queen Bansheera and save all of Mariner Bay.

Carter returned in the season Power Rangers Wild Force, and recruits Cole Evans, the Wild Force Red Ranger, to join a group of other Red Rangers traveling to the moon to defeat the remnants of the Machine Empire in the episode “Forever Red”, which celebrated the franchise’s 10th Anniversary. Carter will return again in a special episode of Power Rangers Super Megaforce to save the world from The Armada alongside other veteran Power Rangers. This makes him one of three returning actors to have participated in both the 10th Anniversary and the 20th Anniversary of Power Rangers.

The actor, Sean CW Johnson, hasn’t been in acting for almost a decade, but when he was, you would have seen him in guest roles on popular shows like JAG, 7th Heaven, CSI: Miami, and the show Las Vegas. He was born in Sarasota, Florida, and has only recently emerged back in to the public with his Twitter account @seancwjohnson. Be sure to send him a tweet welcoming him back in to the world of Power Rangers!

What do you think of this selection? Should it be higher or lower? Let us know! And be sure to tune in TOMORROW as we announce the #9 selection on our TokuNation Users’ Top 20 Power Rangers of All Time list!

Our friend Fury Diamond took the time to upload some of his favorite moments from the episode. We’ve mirrored a couple of the clips below, but to see the rest of them, you’ll have to click here and go to his blog!

In the clip below, we see the Red Ranger Troy training for the upcoming battle. He’s quickly interrupted by the others as the battle begins.

As the battle rages on, the Power Rangers have probably their best morph of the season.

Finally, this last clip CONTAINS SPOILERS – DO NOT WATCH IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED. It’s the final scene of the season, where we find out just how much trouble our heroes are in. Special note, never heard a mentor panic as much as Gosei does in this clip.

Happy Thanksgiving! And to celebrate, here’s a video encode from our good friend Fury Diamond of RangerCrew.com! Check out the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers join forces with the Power Rangers Super Megaforce!

The video contains both the encodes from NBC as well as CBS. It’s important to note that CBS was obviously reading an out-dated fact sheet, naming the Power Rangers Samurai characters instead of the Power Rangers Megaforce characters.

Are you excited for Super Megaforce? Let us know! And be sure to check out all of Fury Diamond‘s stuff at his blog, SamuraiCast Blog!

Go Go Megaforce!
