    I was curious not sure if anyone remembers Saber rider and the Star Sheriffs. It was done by the same studio that redubbed Voltron World Event Productions. I was curious if any toys came out for the series.

    There was a gokin that came out in the 80's. It's called Bismarck:

    Yeah Bismarck is like a top wanted SOC right now, and the original toy and vehicles were fantastic.

    Main thing I remember from that series (and I have the DVD) is always the theme song.

    I do remember the series but I think there was only one episode. I always thought April was hot.

    Bandai did a regular and a DX Chogokin of the Bismark mech (Ramrod in the American version... Ramrod?... watches opening credits again...oh!... Brokeback Space Mountain?) The DX is quite good. Although finding an intact one can be tough. Now that Bandai is working with WEP there is some hope that the fan desires for both a Dairuger XV aka Vehicle Voltron and a Bismark might be in the works. Especially given Bandai's recent moves to bring their Chogokin lines into the North American Nostalgic Gen X/Y'er marketspace. While I think Bismark might be a long shot for a SOC, I could easily see them doing an SRC of it. Sadly the only hope of seeing new toys of the main characters and vehicles would be if WEP manages to get Dreamworks to follow up their new Voltron show with a new Sabre Rider.

    Best song intro ever!

    I had the good luck of watching it in high school as it was on dominican TV in one of the after school slots.
