Anyone remember that show? Loved it as a kid.

I had forgotten about it until JonTron made a video on it. Think I was more of a Power Rangers and Beetleborgs guy.

i adored it as a kid, and recently I tried rewatching it on Netflix. Hoo boy.

I can watch old episodes of Power Rangers, and, as janky as it is, its usually able to maintain the illusion of continuity between the different sources of footage.

But VR Troopers. As a kid I never noticed. But as an adult, after you learn that they mashed together two unrelated shows for the action scenes (three in its second season), the editing becomes so distracting. >_>

Yeah, it's weird how in the American footage, they were martial artists like Power Rangers. However in the source material, it wasn't hand to hand fighting at all. It was all like vehicles shooting bombs.

I remember it being good at some point in my youth, when I had the vaguest notion of the concept of "good writing". Some shit got really dark, a father dying as his redemption or somesuch?

I remember it mostly for the toys. MMPR will always be my #1, but the detail on the VRT toys beat MMPR toys by a mile.

The Beetleborg toys beat them both, but that was significantly later. And then Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog had the best action figures of the nonstransforming variety, the best to this day, but nobody cared about that show.

I had the white Saba sword from PR and the white gloves but all I ever wanted was the green dagger. And no stores had it no matter how much Id look. I did have the full big ass blaster set that connected together.

Wasn't there a licensed, actually metal Dragon Dagger at one point, for several hundred dollars?

it was like 150, and afaik it was available up until last year, which is when Bandai lost the license.

You could still probably find one relatively cheap, but Hasbro is most likely going to take their own crack at it eventually.

Saba sword on Amazon is $160. Dragon sword around $200
