Iron Tube Mask

The Iron Tube Mask appeared in 1975 TV series called Himitsu Sentai Gorenger. Iron Tube Mask (鉄管仮面 Tetsu Gan Kamen, 31) is the twelfth of Black Cross independent Masked Monsters. The first Black Crusade Monster to not be easily defeated by a normal Goranger Storm Ball. Iron Tube Mask emerges after a campaign of destroying EAGLE bases that gets the Gorengers' attention. Facing them, he ends up withstanding multiple attacks of the heroes, including Akarenger's Red Bute, Aorenger's Blue Cherry, Midorenger's Midomerang and even the Gorenger Storm! After gaining the attention of the Black Cross Führer, Iron Tube Mask reveals his plan of using knowledge from a spy to abduct the master of the Snack Gon snack shop, believing him to be Edogawa Gonpachi, the Gorengers' commander. After abducting the chef, he places him under various tortures including electroshock and water splashing to force him to talk, only to get defiance from the commander (keeping his guise on) stating he knows nothing about being the commander of the Gorengers.

When the team reaches the Masked Monster once again, Iron Tube Mask confronts them, using his tubes to attack and even stab Kirenger in the behind, leading to a spinning combo attack between him and Akarenger that makes him dizzy. Aorenger then shoots him with a grinder, which they use in coordination with a Gorenger Storm to make the ball stick to his head, destroying him.

Iron Tube Mask's defeat at the hand of the Gorengers was reviewed among other Masked Monsters by the Black Cross Führer with Iron Basket Mask, who noted that the Gorenger Storm was their trump card along with the Variblune.
