Turban Shell

Turban Shell appeared in season 2 of 1994 TV series called Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. Created by Lord Zedd from the large & unusual shell that Kim had found at the lake, Turban Shell is a mollusk monster. Turbanshell wields a staff with a large spiked shell on one end, projects energy beams from his face, and can project an energy twister from his staff. He also seems to grow giant on his own accord, rather than through Zedd's growth bomb. Turban Shell was able to seal itself up in its shell and hurl itself repeatedly, in a circle pattern, at the Thunder Megazord, knocking it over, and cause the Rangers to eject from it. Turban Shell takes a break and goes back to Zedd, who becomes furious with Turban Shell for leaving the battle while having the upper hand.

Turban Shell was then sent to fight Tommy Oliver as he was able to absorb the last of his powers. Turban Shell causes Tommy to desperately fight back even without his powers even when they are brought to the Otherworld. Goldar intervenes and tells Turban Shell that he will continue torturing Tommy while Turban Shell resumes his destruction of Angel Grove. Turban Shell is hesitant at first and wants to be the one to finish Tommy, but Goldar threatens him and reminds him of his status as an underling, letting him know that Lord Zedd has other plans for him. Turban Shell continues to attack Angel Grove after Goldar takes over his place.

In the meantime, Turban Shell's onslaught is broadcast on television and the Rangers feel helpless since they can do nothing to put a stop to him at that time. Tommy manages to escape from Goldar, returning to Angel Grove. Tommy then deceives Turban Shell by hiding in a cart of watermelons, which Turban Shell eats. Tommy attacks the monster from the inside with intense heat and then Zack grabs a nearby water hose, rapidly cooling Turban Shell's exterior, causing him to freeze. With the monster severely weakened, and Tommy clear, the Thunderzords are brought back, and the Rangers quickly defeat the monster with the Thunder Saber.
