This article is about a set of grunts in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. |
- "Row harder, you Landlubbers. Lest you feel the wrath of Captain Mutiny!"
- ―Mutiny orders to Swabbies.[src]
The Swabbies were Captain Mutiny's foot soldiers. They wield large, curved cutlass swords in battle. They can speak, but only in stereotypical pirate exclamations such as "Ahoy!" and "Arr!"
History
The Swabbies were ordered by Captain Mutiny's Crew to take the citizens of Terra Venture as prisoners/slaves.
They were all destroyed alongside Mutiny and Barbarax when Trakeena destroyed Mutiny's Castle, as revenge for Deviot betraying her to work for Mutiny.

In pirate vernacular, a swabbie is a crewman or deckhand assigned to perform day-to-day labor on a sailing ship, such as "swabbing the decks", i.e. scrubbing and mopping the various floors of said ship
Notes
- In Gingaman, the Seaman Yartots (the Sentai counterparts of the Swabbies) are the main and only set of enemy foot soldiers featured. The Stingwingers are American creations.
- In Latin American, they are named "Marineros," which translates to English as "sailors."
- Lost Galaxy may not have received the original Yartot suits; they have noticeably smaller pupils in American footage than in Sentai footage.
- The Swabbies are the regular Foot Soldiers who have the least of appearances with 7 episodes.
