B-Figther`s Astralborgs and Mantrons?

[NinjaJack]

I`ve seen pictures of a white actor playing the Dragonborg counterpart. Can anyone give me a run down on B-Fighter Kabuto`s other teams?

The guy you're talking about is Reuben Langdon. He's also a member of Zero Gravity.

: Easy...There are eight Insect medallions that were scattered across the Earth. While the Melzard Mother devoured four to "give birth" to the B-Crushers (DeathScorpion, Mukadenger, KillMantis, & Beezak). The other B-Fighter came from Sosmo Academy branches outside Japan(Yanma: New York; Genji: South America, Min: China, & Ageha: Paris).

Yet another reason why Beetleborgs is a joke compared to B-Fighter.

Does America go out of it's way to make a joke out of Tokusatsu?.

Hey now, BB was good in it`s own way though. I liked our Roboborg Saga and the art Fortunes idea was gold wasn`t it? A PERSONAL Jack Kirby to design your arsenal.

Sad, huh?

It`s not like Anime got any better treatment in the wee days when only Voltron was on TV. PR and VR Troopers is American flavored Toku at in it`s prime. The problem is that not every studio has the confidence Haim Saban had.

I wouldn't say it was a big disaster...Beetleborgs did pay some homage to the Universal Monster, though I wished they got into the fight. Being the comedy relief is fine and good, but at least have a few moments where they kick some ass.

...just be greatful the Saban stuff didn't downgrade as low as 4Kids...you know...where riceballs are actually cookies and doughnuts and Japanese is actually an extraterrestrial language not of this Earth.



*Thinks about Disney getting Ryuki...then shoots self* :nelson:



PS: *pictures Ouja doing the Shirley Temple candy routine...then turns to hunt down his collegue...[FreedomBlack should know who that is]...with a sawed off shotgun.*

I hated the show and watching it caused my left I to burst in its socket.... BUT... ****.. if some people liked it, more power to 'em.

I always like it when somebody enjoys something that's not hurting anyone. TOEI probably ended up getting more money as a result.

And B-Fighter Kabuto... still exists in all its glory.

Which reminds me, that hopefully I'll be able to see it someday. I really wish HK's would go retro or a sub group would come about to consistantly and reliably sub some of those shows for us.
