  1. Judge Doom sat at his desk in his dimly lit office that overlooked downtown Toon Town. The faint sounds of music and commotion could be heard from the other side of the drawn window shade. If he had had his way, Doom would have made disturbing the peace of Toon Town an offense punishable by Dip. He loathed the Toons constant desire to continue their insane antics, even if there was no human audience to view them. But it was no matter. Soon Toon Town and all of it’s citizens would be no more, and Doom’s vision would finally be complete. The black rotary telephone on his desk began to ring. Doom slowly picked up the phone and inhaled before answering. “Superior Court of Toon Town. You have reached the offices of Judge Doom. State your business.” “Guh guh good eve good eve uh How are ya, Judge?” “Mr. Pig, I presume?” “Oh yes, suh suh sir! I I I’m sorry to buh bother you, but we have a situa a situa a problem here, and…” Doom could hear the sound of someone snatching the phone out of Porky’s hands. “This is no time for pleasantries, buster! Let me do the talking!” “Mr. Duck,” said Doom, his patience already wearing thin. “I am a busy man. I sincerely hope that you would not interrupt my deliberations for one of your… routines.” There was a gulp on the other end of the line. “Sorry, Judge, your honor-ness. But this is an emergency! We need the Toon Patrol! The National Guard! The Lone Ranger! Somebody!” Doom flinched as some of Daffy’s spittle shot out from the receiver of his phone. “Control yourself, Mr. Duck. Explain the situation in a calm manner.” “Well, you see, sir, Porky and I were on our way home from the Ink and Paint Club. Where I had another brilliant performance by the way. If only that Donald would just stick to the music…” “The situation, Mr. Duck.” “Huh? Oh right. Well, Porky said he knew a shortcut to get us back to Toon Town.” “Th th That’s a total fabr uh fabr uh dirty lie! You you you said you knew how to…” “Quiet, hamhock! Unfortunately, pigs are notorious for their poor sense of directions, and we wound up by the Acme Warehouse.” Doom’s grip tightened on the phone and rose from his chair. “Go on, Mr. Duck.” “We went inside to give Porky a chance to rest. But inside the warehouse there was this… thing.” “What kind of ‘thing’?” “It’s a monster! It was hiding out in the warehouse and when it saw me and Porky it tried to turn us to pincushions!” “Uh duh duh Daffy?” “Will you pipe down?! I’m on the phone! So, listen, judge! I’m a Toontown taxpayer! I demand justice! I demand action!” “Duh duh duh DAFFY?!” “WHAT?!” “I think uh think we’ve been disc uh disc uh IT’S FOUND US!!!!” There was a pair of screams that forced Doom to pull the phone away from his head, followed the sound of smashing glass and rending steel, then silence. Doom hung up his phone. Usually, he wouldn’t mind the loss of a couple Toons, even ones as popular as Porky and Daffy. But there was the matter of the Acme Warehouse. Suppose someone were to discover the barrels of Dip and the parts for the Dipmobile that the Toon Patrol had already smuggled in? Judge Doom grabbed his cane and marched to the door of his private chamber. He swung the door open to see the weasels of the Toon Patrol lounging in the outer office. “Seargent, assemble the men and get the car ready,” Doom said, not even pausing on his way towards the stairwell. “We’re going to the Acme Warehouse.” “You got it, boss! Fall in, youse mugs! Time is of the pubescence!” In 30 minutes, a black sedan and the Toon Patrol paddy wagon pulled up onto the curb in front of the Acme Warehouse. Judge Doom stepped out and surveyed the deserted street, taking note of the demolished phone booth where Porky and Daffy had placed their call for help. He strode to the door of the warehouse with the Toon Patrol following behind. “I will investigate the scene myself, sergeant. Secure the perimeter. No one gets in or out.” “Duh, but then how will you get out, boss?” asked Stupid. Smarty dope slapped Stupid as Psycho snickered. The mad weasel stopped his laughing with one glare from Doom. Doom closed the door behind him as he entered the warehouse. Boxes and shelves lay scattered across the floor. Doom used his cane to push real and Toon gag items out of his path. Suddenly he felt something land on his shoulder. He paused and looked down to see something drip onto his gloved hand. It was a drop of ink. He looked up to see the bodies of Daffy and Porky suspended above the room. Their faces were lifeless as they swung from red and black tendrils attached to the ceiling. A sinister cackle echoed through the warehouse. “You like how I decorated the place? Personally, I think it could use a few more bodies.” Doom scanned the room to locate where the voice was coming from. “I am Judge Doom of the Superior Court of Toontown. You are guilty of the murder of two Toons. You can surrender for trial, or I can render your sentence here.” “Ooh! A judge? Ha! Listen, your honor, the only sentence you can render is telling me where the hell I am! One minute I see some guy in a red cape appear out of nowhere chasing a kid in pajamas into a glowing hole. The next thing I know I’m rubbing shoulders with Daffy Duck!” The suspect’s rambling had allowed Doom to locate him to a darkened corner above a pile of crates. “You are confused, sir. If you would turn yourself in, I would be more than happy to assist you.” “You want to ‘assist’ me? Okay then. CATCH!” Four red and black spikes shot out of the darkness towards Doom. He swung his cane to knock them aside, but it distracted him enough for Carnage to leap out of the darkness. He launched a tendril that attached to a pipe and swung down to deliver a kick to Doom. The judge crashed into a crate containing an anvil and dropped to his knees. Carnage transformed his right hand into an axe. “Sorry, pal, but I never had any love for judges. So how about I just cut out your heart and leave you with my looney friends up there?” Doom began to rise to his feet and snarl at Carnage. “Actually, I was hoping you would try.” Doom ripped off his glasses and removed his fake eyes to reveal the red Toon eyes beneath. Carnage charged ahead and swung his axe, only for Doom to change his own arm into an anvil to block it. “Time to dispense some justice!” Doom shrieked. He pushed Carnage’s axe arm away and delivered a blow with his anvil. Carnage was pushed backwards and dug in with his claws to stop himself. “Well, whaddya know?” Carnage sneered. “This place just keeps getting better and better! Cartoons?! Psycho judges?! I’ll take it! Right after I split your skull!” OK: The battle takes place in the Acme Warehouse. It is full of Acme gadgets that either Carnage or Doom can use. There is Dip, but there is only a few barrels and it is locked away at the start of the fight. Last man standing wins. Game On!
  2. Glad you like it. Arcee's wiki said that Hasbro originally had listed at 7 ft, then around 9ft for the 80s movie, so I split the difference.
  3. Perhaps the next round could have the creators who got a buy compete in a three way? Highest rating of the 3 advances to the final?
  4. Remember: Too much Pink Energy is dangerous!
  5. The Angel Grove Youth Center was empty save for Kimberly and Tommy. Kimberly went through her steps on a balance beam as Tommy spotted for her. He remained as quiet as he could to keep from throwing off Kimberly’s concentration. The Pink Ranger cartwheeled across the beam, then went into a pair of handsprings to send her back along it’s length. She spun on one foot and posed, addressing an invisible audience. Suddenly Kimberly did a walkover to the center of the beam into another cartwheel. Tommy held his breath as Kimberly went into a final leap that sent her spiraling off the beam before landing perfectly on the mat. “Yes!” Tommy punched the air and ran over to Kimberly as she went through her final pose. She turned to face Tommy and smiled. “Did it look okay?” “You looked great! Do that routine and you’ll win that meet for sure.” “Thanks, Tommy. And thanks for talking to Ernie about letting me use the center after hours to practice.” “Hey, don’t mention it,” Tommy grinned. “Anything to help out a fellow Ranger.” Suddenly there was a flash of light of a teleporter and Kimberly and Jason were surrounded by a squadron of Putties. The Rangers stood back-to-back as Rita’s foot soldiers brandished their weapons and advanced them, babbling incessantly. “Hope you’re not too tired after that practice, Kimberly,” Tommy whispered urgently. “Matter of fact,” said Kimberly, going into a fighting stance. “I’m just getting warmed up!” The Putties lunged at Tommy and Kimberly, who easily dodged the attack. Tommy somersaulted through the air and delivered punches and kicks to the Putties. Kimberly jumped onto the uneven bars and went into a series of swings. The Putties burbled in confusion and advanced, but when they got close enough Kimberly extended her legs and delivered a kick to send them sprawling. She swung off the bar and dismounted just as the Putties started to clamber onto the frame. She delivered a jumping kick to a Putty brandishing a blade for an arm then cartwheeled out of the way of two more Putties, allowing them to crash into each other. Kimberly was so busy readying herself for her next move that she didn’t notice another flash of light behind her. Instantly Squatt and Baboo appeared, and each grabbed her by an arm. “Got you now, Pink Ranger!” Baboo cheered. “Yeah!” snickered Baboo. “You’re coming with us!” “Get off of me, you creeps!” shouted Kimberly as she tried to fight free of the monsters. “Tommy!” Tommy disposed of a Putty then turned to see Kimberly in trouble. “Let her go! HYAH!” He charged towards Squatt and Baboo only to have another three Putties jump in his way. “They won’t hold him off for long!” whined Baboo. “Better act fast, Squatt! Use the potion and let’s get out of here!” “You got it!” Squatt reached into his belt and pulled out a bottle. He popped off its cork and shoved it in Kimberly’s face. She instinctively pulled back from the bottle but a green mist emerged from it and enveloped her face. Her eyes rolled back in her head and she fell limp in Squatt and Baboo’s clutches. “Kimberly! UGH!” Tommy was struck from behind by a Putty as Squatt and Baboo laughed. “So long, Green Ranger!” “Say bye bye to your girlfriend! Putties! Let’s go!” Another flash of light and Kimberly and all of Rita’s henchmen had gone. Tommy glared in disbelief at where Kimberly had been, then activated his wrist communicator. “Zordon! Alpha! Come in! We have an emergency!” In Rita’s palace on the Moon, Kimberly was still unconscious and trapped in a large green crystal. Squatt and Baboo danced around their prisoner and high fived each other. “We did it! We did it!” sang Baboo. “What do you mean ‘we’?” said Squatt. “I’m the one put her to sleep!” “But you wouldn’t have done it if I hadn’t reminded you!” “I didn’t forget!” “Yeah, you did!” “Didn’t!” “Did!” “Didn’t!” “Did!” “SHUT UP!” The two henchmen fell instantly silent as Rita Repulsa stormed into the chamber, followed by Goldar. “DID YOU TWO FORGET WHO ORDERED YOU TO GO ON THAT MISSION?!” “Oh, you, your highness!” “Yeah, you, boss!” “SILENCE!” Squatt and Baboo fell groveling to the floor as Rita gave a triumphant sneer towards the trapped Pink Ranger. “You two finally managed to do something right! Everything is going EXACTLY as I have planned. Now to let our ‘friend’ know we’re ready to go to phase two! Heh heh!” Rita walked over to a small table next to Kimberly’s crystal. On it was a crystal ball that pulsated with the same green light. Rita waved her hands over the crystal ball and spoke words in an ancient language that neither Squatt, Baboo, or Goldar would understand even if they spoke it. The green light grew brighter and brighter until a shaft of green lightning shot out of the crystal ball. A green portal opened above it and a metallic face emerged from the swirling vortex. “Greetings, Lord Starscream!” “Ah, Rita Repulsa. I trust this means you have captured one of those… Rangers?” Rita turned the crystal ball so that the portal could face the crystal holding Kimberly. “See for yourself! This is Kimberly, the Pink Ranger!” Starscream didn’t look impressed as he stared at Rita’s prisoner. “Hmph. A human. A teenaged female at that. I hope you aren’t wasting my time, your highness.” Rita showed a rare amount of restraint as she controlled her temper and went on. “I assure you, Lord Starscream, these Rangers are extremely powerful! Even this one would be more than a match for your Autobots! With a little of my magic, of course.” “And suppose she chooses not to fight them? If the humans in your universe are anything like the ones in mine, they have a nasty habit for being noble.” “Ah! That’s where my magic comes in! I’ve used a potion to trap Kimberly’s mind in one state of mind! Since the potion knocked her out when she was in the middle of a fight, she will continue to fight until her opponent is destroyed!” Starscream chuckled. “Very good! And if your Rangers are as tough as you say they are, the Autobots will be at my… er, the Decepticons mercy. Provided of course that your Kimberly can survive phase two.” “Don’t you worry, Lord Starscream! The first Autobot Kimberly finds will be sent to the scrap heap! Heh heh heh!” The two villains cackled together until Starscream stopped himself and stared dead serious at Rita. “See that she does. Or is she fails, the Decepticons will reduce your little castle to rubble. Proceed with the experiment. Starscream out!” The Decepticon’s face disappeared from the portal. Rita whirled around to Goldar. “THREATEN ME, WILL HE?! THAT OVERSIZED TOASTER! WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS?!” “Ignore him, my queen,” snarled Goldar. “He’ll eat his words when the Pink Ranger defeats an Autobot.” “YEAH! IF LOSES, THERE’S ONE LESS RANGER TO WORRY ABOUT! AND IF SHE WINS, HA! SHE’S STARSCREAM’S PROBLEM! SO, LET’S GET ON WITH IT!” Rita Repulsa raised her staff and shot a bolt of energy at the portal. The portal began to grow in size and the image inside of it began to transform into a deserted highway. “CHUCK HER IN, BOYS!” Goldar, Squatt, and Baboo grunted as they lifted Kimberly’s crystal off it’s base and heaved it into the portal. Rita held her staff high above her head. “MAGIC WAND! MAKE MY ‘RANGER’ GROOOOOW!” Rita threw her staff into the portal, causing an explosion of green energy. Then the portal closed to the laughter of the space witch and her followers. Arcee sped down the highway in car mode. Perceptor had detected an enormous burst of energy over the Mojave Desert, followed by a quake that registered 4.5 on the Richter scale. It might have just been an asteroid, but Ultra Magnus wanted to make sure. Arcee’s sensors began to pick up a strange reading in the distance. It appeared to be human, but it was generating intense power. Arcee slammed on her brakes and transformed into her Autobot mode to see for herself. Laid out in an enormous crater, was what appeared to be a human teenaged girl dressed in a gymnasts unitard. However, the girl also happened to be 8 feet tall. “By the All Spark!” Arcee breathed. She knelt down next to the girl as she stirred and groaned. “Take it easy um… kid. It’s alright.” Kimberly opened her eyes to see Arcee bending over her. Her eyes narrowed and before Arcee could say a word, Kimberly delivered a thrust kick that sent the Autobot sprawling backwards. Arcee climbed to her feet as Kimberly kipped up. “Do you always kick people trying to help you?” asked Arcee. “Who are you?” snapped Kimberly. “Another one of Rita’s monsters?” “Listen! My name is Arcee, I’m with the Autobots. Why don’t we calm down and…” “No! Why don’t you tell me where Tommy is? And if you think I can’t make you talk… It’s Morphin’ Time!” Kimberly grabbed her Morpher and thrust it forward. “Pterodactyl!” Arcee stepped forward with hands outstretched. “Just let me explain!” But the Morphing Sequence had begun. With a flash of light Kimberly had transformed into her Pink Ranger armor. She swiftly drew her Power Bow and fired. Arcee rolled out of the way of the arrow and drew her blaster. “Okay, less explaining. More shooting.” OK: Kimberly (between MMPR season 1 and 2) is as tall as Arcee (80s cartoon version) and both have access to their powers and weapons. Kimberly can access her Pterodactyl Dinozord but will be reduced to normal size if she does. Last pink lady standing, wins. Game On!
