Yep. Watched it at the cinema as part of a friend's birthday party, back in the way-back-when.

For my birthday, we watched Flight of the Navigator.

Not me - I wasn't even born back then.
Yep, it had a 3D spaceship, kinda like the character stuff in the Energon cartoon. And the lightsab - um - sword hilt.
The swearing made me laugh too - a bit like that 'p*ss off' line in Watership Down did. It made us kids laugh like drains (gurgle!).

I saw it in the cinema too, then never heard of it again. Always rememered it but lost the name of it to the sands of time.

For some reason I always remembered it.
And Flight of the Navigator? I have that film on DVD. Love that shiney ship.

As we're on the subject of old shows, and I don't want to get in trub for starting a new topic, I bought these old videos at a secondhand shop for 99p each today. They all work great too. Pity I was actually trying to find a copy of Starchaser: Legend of Orin. I didn't, of course.
Gobots: Transformers' simple cousin:

Centurions: This HAS to be made into a live-action movie one day -but without annoying kids saving the day a'la Thunderbirds. Man and machine - POWER X-TREME!

OMG!

Rocklords, screw me I have RockLords.

I also have copter the gobot, and I belive I had them before I saw the good in Transformers

Yeah, Gobots were pre-TF for me too. I had bloody LOADS! But not anymore

- I think I swapped them at school for some TFs. Good bargain, although sad I got rid of Leader-1, Cy-kill, that red car with the weird face, and (snigger) Scooter. I could buy them all again from the import shop near me if I wanted. I only ever had one Rock Lord though.
Never had any Centurion toys - I'll have to scour the 'net for some. Anybody have a favourite Centurion? I kinda like Wild Weasle (the motorbike).

Rock Lords is truly bobbins. It's the most laughable movie I've been so far unable to shift on eBay.

I take it you mean the toys? They DO look like something the dog left after a squat.

No, the video that you posted above. I've tried to sell it, no reserve, a couple of times and no-one's bitten. It's truly awful, I really couldn't watch it again.

Centurions. I loved that. Read the comic as well.
To the power X-Treme!

It's them we have to blame for Rob Liefield's career and all that dodgy X-Treme marketing crap, you know.
It is.
It is.
It is.

Oh well, no it isn't then.

I remember having a quite a hard time trying to pick a favourite Centurion Guy. I think I liked Green Guy the best first (best first? silly phrase, never catch on) coz I just liked his character. Then I liked Yellow Guy coz his powersuit thingies always caused the most destuction and just looked like a lot of fun to use. Then I liked Blue Guy the best because he gets to fly and go into space and stuff. And that made him the coolest.
Wow, it was like I got stupider the more I got into it.

And it had a red-haired woman and a space-monkey.

I forgot that! Kevin Smith - eat your ass out!
I hated the blue guy (Ace McCloud, I think) - he was a nob. Jake Rockwell (the green (Ranger)) was the bike guy. He had a dog which wore a missile launcher (hey! RSPCA!).Max Ray was the yellow one - he went underwater. And looked like Tony Stark.
Actually, just 'cos I mentioned Power Rangers there, don't you think Centurions would make a good similar live-action TV show now?

And if I'd known you hated the video MV, I'd have got you to post it to me - I have a little collection of old 80s shows on tape: He-Man, Mask, Terrahawks, Star Fleet etc.

GOD! You're right! I only watched this a couple of days ago - how did I miss that? And the monkey girl. I tell you - these tablets are screwing with my brain.

And an ickle Karl? Cute as bunnies!
