Cannontop is a cannon monster created by Lord Zedd from a miniature cannon model that belonged to Billy's cousin. Cannontop serves as the main antagonist of the episode "Scavenger Hunt".

History

Cannontop was created by Zedd from a miniature cannon model that belonged to Billy's cousin after it was stolen by the Putties. Zedd sent Cannontop to attack Angel Grove. Cannontop attacked the city and encountered the Power Rangers. The Rangers struck him with their weapons but it did not harm him. He did not manage to send the Rangers to the Lost Dimension.

The Rangers used the Power Blaster and defeated him with it, causing Zedd to make Cannontop grow. Tommy attacked him with the Red Dragon Thunderzord, riding on the top of the White Tigerzord. He also called for the assistance of Tor.

Afterwards the White Tigerzord goes into Warrior Mode and formed the Mega Tigerzord. Cannontop tried to take it out with his laser barrage but it was unfazed and brought his bombarding days to an end by using the Firebird Thunderzord's Grid Strike Attack. After his destruction he reverted back to the form of a toy cannon. TV STORY-Scavenger Hunt
