Also SUPERNATURALS. They had really cool holograms.
Hell yeah, I'm a massive fan of Captain Power! Got the DVD release of the original series a couple years back.

Sadly, they're actually working on a relaunch but can't get anyone to pick it up for distribution.
Seems like there has been some recent steps forward.

Yes! So glad to see it moving ahead. :thumb:
Hell yeah!

I hope the new toys they come out with can still interface with the television somehow, just as a cheesy throwback to the original series. I used to sit there with my Power Jet or whatever it was called shooting at the bad guys in the show when I was a kid, comparing scores with my friends (no sitting close to the screen and cheating!). It was a great way of getting kids to watch the program and want the VHS tapes.
I'm not sure they can replicate that effect anymore - something specific to the television tech of the time that allowed that interaction doesn't exist/isn't used anymore in modern tvs.

My wife likes to draw stuff too, and she is better than me! [I'm very proud of her]... https://www.facebook.com/pages/Sara-Dec ... ref=stream" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Has anyone read the Future Quest series by Jeff Parker from D.C.? Thinking of getting the first TPB.
