no an original zord wouldn't be right plus I'd rather them just use the Sentai zords in original footage they don't do it as much anymore which disappoints me.

I beg your pardon? have you been watching the same show? while they do use the Sentai mecha fights they have shot their own original zord footage.

It's a shame they don't use more toys to make footage of US-exclusive Zords. The Dino/Thunder Zord transformation sequence was fairly decent and surely with modern technology such things would look even better.

And it's not as if they don't know how to make good Zord fights using suits. Season 3 also had some really pretty original Megazord fights (Although of course, they still used Sentai Mech rather than US exclusive Zords because I guess creating a US Zord suit would be to expensive). They were filmed outdoors and so made a nice change of pace from the Sentai ones (Although visually they didn't make sense as they had city buildings in a forest). It's a shame they didn't do more over the years.

yea the Ultrazords don't count for that very reason and you're right it's not as if they don't know how to make good fights since Season 3 as you indicated had some sure visually it might not make sense but who really cares? and yea creating U.S. exclusive zords would likely be an expensive task not to mention probably a time consuming one as well.

Maybe even creates extra body suits for when they end up with some spare zords that have nowhere to go.

that's something that I have always wanted I remember watching Wild Force and I was disappointed when Animus didn't use the Wolf and Hammerhead for arms.

indeed a re-painted version of a Dairanger monster and they also had an original "semi-fight" with their Shogunzords (no weapons however) against the Sinister Simian.
Mega Winger fought the Velocifighters.
Astro and Galaxy Megazords fought Psycho Pink.
Centaurus and Stratoforce fought Stingwingers.
Time Force Megazord Mode Blue had 1 ep in original footage with it fighting.
Animus and Predazord.
