Benglo is a Bengal tiger-themed monster who is one of the Fearcats.
Character History
He was summoned by Cheetar and Mig from the Prison Mirror with the help of Ronny's Overdrive Tracker and appears to be stronger than them. The Rangers thought they had seen the last of them when they defeated them with the DriveMax Ultrazord. Norg took the bodies of Mig and Benglo to Flurious who used his Gyros to revive the two Fearcats, and make them his servants. However, Mig and Benglo were not ones to follow and defected. Now Mig and Benglo use their incredible new powers to search for the Corona Aurora. after Agrios was defeated, he fought the five main Rangers while Mig battled Tyzonn. After witnessing the demise of Mig, he vowed vengeance, but before he could do anything, he was destroyed by the Red Sentinel Ranger.
Personality
Unlike his partner Mig, Bengelo is much more levelheaded and mature, but is just as vicious and sadistic as him.

Behind the Scenes

Notes
- Benglo bears a slight resemblance to the Tigerzord of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, while his cyborg form resembles the Mega Tigerzord. The reason for this is because his Boukenger counterpart, Grand Beast Rei, as with each primary antagonist and each individual monster of the week was visually designed as an homage to the various robots and other mecha piloted by the protagonists of the 29 previous Super Sentai Series (except for J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai), as Boukenger was the 30th anniversary series. Gai's look was based on the Tigerzord's counterpart, Mythical Chi Beast Won Tiger of Gosei Sentai Dairanger, while his Quester/Cyborg form was based off the Mega Tigerzords counterpart, Kibadaioh.
- Benglo is the last Fearcat to be destroyed.
- Benglo's sword was reused as the main weapon of Korvaka in the first episode of Power Rangers Ninja Steel.
