Anybody else remember this. It popped in my head the other day and I got the theme song stuck in my head. All I remember as a kid was Power Rangers was number 1 and shows like this and VR Troopers helped fill the void.

I had most of the toys, it was my favourite of all the Power Rangers ripoffs.

I wonder if Tim Curry even remembers he voiced Kilokahn?

IMO the suit choroegraphed fight scenes were the best of all the power ranger rip offs IMO.
The song was and is still catchy and f***ing awesome.

Man, for years I thought this show might've been a fever dream, because no one I talked to remembered it. This was one of the few Power Rangers rip-offs that got played in my area and it easily ended up being my favorite of the bunch.

I remember this show. It used to air on Sundays in syndication, I think. Never watched an episode, though. I mostly vaguely remember the toy commercials.

Times like this I wonder, between Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad, Big Bad Beetleborgs, and Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills...
Did Masked Rider miss the overly long name memo?

This one sadly came at the tail end of the power ranger'esc rip offs but I damn enjoyed it and I was damn pissed it never got a season 2 right when it was hitting its stride.

Yes, these were rip-offs in the U.S. But more than likely they came out in one order or another in Japan. Hell, the hundreds of Power Rangers variations were actually different shows over there. I remember having to convince people that these shows - not to mention various anime, including DBZ - were NOT made in the U.S.

I wonder if Tim Curry even remembers he voiced Kilokahn? I think a lot of people feel that way just because this show kind of came and went. However, like I said when power rangers wasn't on I either watched this or VR Troopers to help fill the void.

I remember liking how they were more realistic kids compared to the perfect teenagers that the power rangers were.
