Gold Digger is a treasure-themed outlaw under Sledge's command. He serves as the main antagonist of the episode "True Black".
History[]
Gold Digger is summoned by Sledge in order to destroy the Rangers under the threat he will be melted into jewelry in case he fails or does not comply.
He is accompanied by Wrench, Curio and Poisandra. While the former two battle, the latter two become pestered and decide to leave to see Glitz World on TV, leaving the outlaw to battle the Rangers along with Wrench.
He nearly squashes the heroes, but the newly-found Armor X proves enough to break through his defenses and defeat him.
Once enlarged by the Magna Beam, he is destroyed by the Dino Charge Megazord's Tri-Stego-Ptera Formation. TV STORY-True Black
Gold Digger is seen when Kendall Morgan infiltrates Sledge's ship and was destroyed offscreen when Sledge's ship crashes on Earth. TV STORY-One More Energem
Gold Digger's coins and Spellbinder's pendant were later combined to form Spell Digger. TV STORY-Riches and Rags
The ghosts of Gold Digger and Spellbinder were summoned to the Halloween Intergalactic Court by Scumlaw where they recap their side of the story and a reference to their fusion of Spell Digger. TV STORY-Trick or Trial
Gold Digger was among the monsters revived by Wrench as part of Doomwing's plot to divert the Rangers while going after Zenowing again. Due to the revival being sped up, Gold Digger was rendered unable to speak. He and the other monsters were destroyed by the Power Rangers. TV STORY-Wings of Danger
Personality[]
Gold Digger employs dirty tactics against his enemies, such as fooling them with explosive money, as well as more forceful ones, like crushing them with stone slabs and cutting them apart with his sharp pickaxe. His persona is a mixture of playful and sadistic, with the dominant side depending on his mood. However, his inability to adapt to the Armor X, which can penetrate and destroy his strongest slabs, proves to be his ruin.
