Power Rangers:
Probably one of the first costumed transformable heroes which people think about when the topic is mentioned. The original 5 came in red, yellow, pink, black and blue. The yellow would be asian, and the black would of course be a dark man. Many people would say that green ranger would be their favourite ranger, because he starts off evil, becomes the leader later on and basically fucks people up ( at one point when he was evil, he could take on all 5 rangers by himself). Little do they know that the green ranger is also the white ranger, after green rangers powers got taken away from him when he became a good guy, Zordon secretly creates the white ranger to "save the day". Power ranger would probably be my favourite 90s transformable hero shows (for the first 4 seasons anyway, where they still used the original characters before they switched to alien ranger, zeo rangers, jungle ranger etc), due to the great choreography in the fight scenes compared to most other shows.
Big Bad Beetleborgs and Beetleborgs Metallixs:
I quite enjoyed beetleborgs. I recall when i was a little kid, I would always choose to watch beetleborgs over whatever other show was on in another channel. Sadly Beetleborgs was canceled into the 2nd season :( Beetleborgs consists of 3 kids who found a genie like entity that agreed to give them 1 wish after being rescued. The kid's wished to become comic book super heroes and gained supernatural powers, the white kid getting telekinesis, dark kid getting super speed and the white girl getting super strength. Due to the fact that they became real heroes from a comic book, so of course their counterpart villains also became real. At the end of season 1 the big bad beetleborgs were defeated by a new enemy, and were stripped from their powers. They then had to get new suits and became the beetleborg metallix. Although the choreography wasn't as good as power rangers, it was still an entertaining show and had a super catchy opening tune.
Masked Rider:
Even though I thought masked rider was pretty cool, he was probably my least liked suited super hero (The USA version anyway). The choreography was below average, and the colleagues he had were boring. A bunch of normal human beings, a furry alien thing, a talking motorcycle and a talking car. I also did not really like the fact that he looked like a bug. The story line was quite linear and did not give many options for better story development. The USA one was stopped after the first season.
Big Wolf on Campus:
The video says it all, although he's not a suited super hero like the others, he's still so dope.
