This was found on Funaroboard and later Rangerboard so I'm just cross posting it here.

Essentially an odd american adapation of Metalder, with reused/proto-MMPR music and Jason Frank mixed in. I might never look at "Go Green Ranger Go!" the same way again.

Note: It's been theorised that the song in the pilot is one of the first versions of GGRG as at this point the Zyu2 would still have been in the making.

WoW! I read about this before and saw an actual advertisment for it but I never thought I would get to see the pilot. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh man, (or should I say, "Aww man!!") that Cybertron pilot reel looked so awesome, that (even though I liked VR Troopers) it would've been so interesting if it actually became a proper series instead of VR Troopers.

But then again, what would've happened to Mighty Morphin Power Rangers? Could it have continued without Tommy or could it have later become axed while Cybertron took over Kid's TV?

Maybe, it could be a cool idea if Steve Wang cancelled this Kamen Rider Dragon nonsense, and did a remake of Cybertron instead.

And yeah, awesome theme music.

Anyone else notice comedian Jamie Kennedy in the pilot aswell? He's the dude with the long hair who says "boo!".

Oh man, Cybertron > VR Troopers.

Wow. Cybertron, eh? That's.. well.. Suffice to say I am without words. :shakefist Yeah, definetly enjoyed those brief moments than VR Troopers as a whole. It's all worth it to hear JDF's trademarked, "Hoo-Seh-Eeyah!"

Jason Frank makes Brad Hawkins look like Olivier.
