The Ninja and Shogun ultrazords were atrocious. It's hard to tell because these things go so fast, but they used toys in the Thunderzord calls, the transformations were original footage.

Serpentera did have a real scale problem in Wild Force, but keep in mind they were forced to use Disney's CG team.

There have been times, though, that PR has gotten the actual suits, like the Thunder Megazord, Tigerzord Battle Mode, Shogunzords, Mega Winger, Astro, all the LG hardware, Omega, Q-Rex, Mode Blue, SWAT.

Thing is, most of the time, these battles are mostly re-cut stock footage because these things are simply hard to shoot. Endings, the fight was mostly slightly modified stock footage. Ninja Quest Part 1, the fight was mostly Kaku, Zyu2 and Dairanger except for the shots they couldn't get anywhere else.

I can think of just a few times we've actually gotten truly original full zord fights, either by necessity or otherwise, not to say there weren't other scenes of consequence PR improvised. We've seen a lot of decent CG and other shots in Dino Charge.
