Fossilador is a mind controlling dinosaur skeleton monster who appears as the main antagonist of the Power Rangers Dino Thunder episode "The Missing Bone". He was originally created by Tommy Oliver and Anton Mercer but was discarded because it went out of control. He was later recreated and used by Mesogog.
History[]
Fossilador was originally created by Tommy and Anton as the experimental model of living beings with dinosaur DNA and the ability to control the minds of people. But he went out of control and was destroyed by them.
Mesogog later recreated Fossilador and the monster brainwashed Kira to trick Tommy into giving him the missing bone, which he used to revive himself. After reviving himself, he blasted Kira.
Later, he enlarged himself and attacked Reefside.
The monster battled and nearly defeated the Thundersaurus Megazord, who was without the Pterazord, as Kira was missing.
However, Hayley found Kira, who joined her friends. The Rangers battled the monster and defeated him after learning that the villain's weak spot was his missing bone. Fossilador was destroyed for good with the Dino Drill attack. TV STORY-The Missing Bone
Personality[]
Fossilador was a cunning, arrogant, and manipulative monster who considered himself the best and thought he could easily destroy the Power Rangers. He was shown to be highly manipulative as he controlled Kira to obtain his missing bone. His arrogance was his weakness as he was defeated by the Rangers and ironically, his weak spot was his missing bone.
