This image did not get enough consensus in the Image Suggestion thread. Other ideas?

The main problem with the OP is that the Black Ranger doesn’t look custom enough to someone not familiar with the show.

That looks more Non-Uniform Uniform.

Which in all honesty probably should be merged with this one and ditch that horrible name.

Non Uniform Uniform is someone adapting a uniform to fit their individuality or express themselves. Which I don't think is exactly the case here, since Cobra Commander just wears a custom uniform coz he's in charge.

That said, the tropes are really hard to tell apart.

Non-Uniform Uniform are uniforms that share at least a major design element (Color, Sleeves, Insignia, etc)

Custom Uniform is a "uniform" that looks nothing like what other "uniform" uniforms

Lightspeed Rescue probably is a better Ranger example, in that his costume, while heavily based on the others, obviously breaks pattern

Custom Uniform is a "uniform" that looks nothing like what other "uniform" uniforms

That is not supported by literally the majority of the examples on the page. Which include plenty of "Slight alteration to existing uniform"

@ Willbyr: Did you mean the Green Ranger? That's the one I was going for.

Star Trek Enterprise, with different uniforms for the Token Non Humans.
