So these are the 3 people that are in the Abaranger suits and many other Super Sentai hero suits aswell.

I seriously wish one day we'd get to see a Sentai show have the stunt actors as the starring actors aswell. Like with some Sentai shows back in the day.

There's only Lisa Komaki to my knowledge. And she played Miss America as well.

She didn't play Momoranger in-suit, though, but she was a JAC actress/stuntwoman.

Despite there being numerous JAC actors/stuntpeople playing the heroes out of suit back in the day, the only ones that attempted to play their characters in-suit as well was Kenji Ooba and Jun'ichi Haruta, who both were often doubled by Tsutomu Kitagawa, so it never really was always them in-suit. Kouji Unoki, who played Dyna Blue, supposedly was in-suit as Dyna Blue, but I find that a little hard to believe (if talents like Haruta even had periods of switching off, why not someone lesser like Unoki?)

I am very happy to know that the people in the female Ranger suits... are females.

Cuz I can't help but look. :disappoin

Lisa Komaki, Peggy Matsuyama from GORANGER, played Miss America in-costume for BATTLE FEVER J -- because of her long legs. When I interviewed Tsutomu Kitagawa at Godzillafest in San Francisco last year, he laughed that he also played Miss America, "But only a little" -- LOL! He did some of the more daring stunt scenes in her place.

Yeah It's odd knowning PR's Pink & Yellow Rangers have males in the suits. Remember in early PR when the Pink Ranger suit actor was that sexy blonde girl who was Buffy's stunt double. Now that's what I'm talkin' about.

Oh, I forgot to mention that you can see photos of Tsutomu "Tom" Kitagawa, and all of our Godzillafest guests over at http://www.sfgodzillafest.com/ -- just click on the "Photo Gallery" link -- and I'm in 'em, too. There's one where Kitagawa and I had a little mock fight, because he said that one of his first jobs was playing a Akuma Zoku footsoldier in AKUMAIZER 3 -- so, I did a Zabitan on him!

Not Abaranger, but some other series' stunts
