The obvious thing to do when cosplaying something from Power Rangers would be one of the lycra-clad Rangers themselves, but nope, Jason Aulicino had bigger ideas. This is his Dragonzord outfit, and it looks like it just walked right off the set after a busy day fighting dudes in rubber suits. All photos here by…
