Does anyone remember watching this show?
This came out when I was 4 or 5 and I thought it was so cool. Part of it reminded me of TRON, if the programs had invaded the real world. Watching the episodes now, I'm reminded of how much children's programming has changed during the 80s. Anyone else a fan of Capt. Power? |

I watched the show whenever I remembered it was on. Very cool for its time even though the CGI looks very dated today. I had a crush on Pilot Chase and was bummed with what happened to her.

The Dread Troopers looked exactly like Nullifiers. I had all the good guy stuff though. But I loved Blastarr Ground Guardian. Remember him? He was the demonic tank robot Lord Dread used for ground assault.

I only knew of this show/toy by seeing the commercials as a kid, I've never seen a single episode and I've only just recently started getting some of the toys (Mostly just the bad guys) I did think it was a cool idea that the toys could interact with the tv. Which reminds me, I should try to get one of those Batman batmobiles from a few years ago that interact with the show as well.

POWER ON! This show was the cat's meow when I first saw it. I still like the idea of pressing the button and having the suit form around you. Remember the interactivity of the toys with the tv show?

I Loved this show growing up, i was also really young when it came out, but my brother and i had all of the toys. I remember my parents buying literally all of them for next to nothing at Meijer's once the show went off the air. The three toys i remember the most prominently during that time period (not including joe) were Construx, Captain Power, and Legions of Power. I have fond memories of building Bases for captain power and joe figures out of legions of power sets.

I can remember having Lord Dread, Soaron and Blastarr and using them with Joes.
I have vague recollections of watching the show. I never had one of the vehicles to shoot the TV with, though. |

I had the figure of Captin Power. Just that. I always wanted the planes that you could interact with the show (if I remember right). I wasn't a big fan of the show it self though. I was watchin' Bravestar and Bionic 6 at the time.

I used to like it, but I can't tell you what it was about. I remember Captain Power and a guy named Tank (?) and that the toys interacted with the show.
