Mr. Woodyard, I’m 50 years young and I can’t tell you how excited I am to be able to thank you. Your work was (is still) a huge inspiration to me. Bless you for all the work you’ve done over the years and for giving me some of my best childhood memories. Thank you 🙏
You should thank TMS Entertainment in Japan too. Since the product you saw was their direct efforts. The animation was outsourced to them. I understand Dennis did the storyboards, and I'd love to see them, but there is no art from him on the internet that I can find. :(
Maaaaannn... it was a very happy part of my childhood playing with these actin figures and watching the TV show! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Brazil.
This and the Thundercats, were two of the most action packed cartoon series of their time. I couldn't WAIT to see the next episode of the Galaxy Rangers. Viewing this, I now have a deeper understanding of their mission. Thanks so much for posting this. No Guts, No Glory!
Can’t believe gems like this are being released 40 years later. Stumbled on this video while browsing great cartoon openings; Galaxy Rangers is my fave.
Many fans consider the episode 'Armada' to serve as a series finale of sorts since the Crown Empire lost so many of their destroyers during their failed assault on the Sol system that it likely hastened the inevitable collapse of the empire as a whole. Even Commander Walsh himself declared that the Crown had suffered its' worst defeat in history, with the episode ending with a celebration that had a certain note of finality to it.
@@zoezerbrasilio2419 Oh, Eliza Fox? Yeah, that was the single biggest unresolved subplot in the series. Even the whole deal with Tarkon and their aversion to technology was properly addressed over the course of the show, while Scarecrow was finally dealt with for good in the final broadcast episode.
To this days I have the impression that this show quality set the bars just too high for its time. Not only for its visuals and the quality of the animation, but the originality and the drama itself. It surprises me that nobody tried to pitch a new take on this show for Netflix or something like that. Thank you for your work in this masterpiece, Mr. Woodyard!
The background soundtrack is awesome! I used to tape and edit snippets of it... great slide guitar and synth combos ."OneI Million Emotions" is my favorite episode. Tortuna my favorite setting. Sombody should TTRPG this series. Thank you for this! Love your work! You are a massive influence on my art and the show on my Music!
Loved this series and at this time have Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers Collection Vol 1 & 2 DVD sets. I hope that there is a bluray release in the US and CAN in the future.
This series was ahead of its time. The animation, the music, the stories... everything was spectacular! Thank you for sharing this incredible material. A big greeting from Chile! ❤👍👍👍
My introduction to Jerry Orbach. Do you know how hard it is to watch this when you’re snot-bubble crying tears of joy? Thank you so much for posting this.
One of my favorite cartoons, everything about it to me was awesome. I wish the series could get re-released with this pilot that brings more to the story, because those older released sets are way too expensive. I'm sad I still haven't been able to get any of the toys
Thanks, for viewing. I'm rather surprised the DVD sets are so scarce, and expensive. The Galaxy Rangers The Collection Vol. 1& 2 by Koch Entertainment, have great packaging and extras. I'll do a video on them soon. The toys are harder to find. I even, only have a Zachery Fox figure, that I found completely by accident in Paris, France. I'll do a video on that, too. Again, thanks, keep watching, like and subscribe. RANGERS...HOO!
Thanks, Bro. I remember Chubby saying Galaxy Rangers was the first time she saw my name in the TV credits, and she was so proud. That meant a lot to me to make the family proud. Thanks for yours and their support. Part of my reason for posting these video is an archive for my boys and family to enjoy. Love ya.
😱 I am a huge fan of Galaxy Rangers. It is one of my all-time favorite cartoons. I really appreciate that you decided to share this footage with those of us who haven't had a chance to see it. This show will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for giving the world such a wonderful piece of work.
A few decades ago some wonderful chap was peer sharing this entire series of Voltron, Thundercats, MASK and Centurions. It was the first time I had back-ups of back-ups for my computer, when im long gone my grandkids will still know what great cartoons are, Lol.
the 80-90 cartoons glory (among silver hawk, thunder cats,saber rider and star sherrif ,etc) when america producers meets japan anime maker, thanks for make my childhood awesome !!! although i lived in the third world country back then
@@Sinjinator broadcast by goverment television, we only have one station in late 90s, original languange it use subtitle , i was really strugle to read the sub and watch in the same time (iwas 6 yo), and because of it my English way better than my young fella
Doc really meant a lot to me. Black characters were usually sassy sidekicks or hulking bruisers. Doc was different. He was smart. He worked with *computers*.
The story boards as very appreciated! Nice! This show was a mixed bag for me. The stories and the voice direction seemed really weak, while the animation and technical designs by Tokyo Movie Shinsa were amazing. (This promo however had really good voice acting and direction. Go figure.) Would love to see a revival of this series incorporating the evil empire story line.
If there's ever an 80s show that could use a modern reboot, it's this one. I have always wondered if there is a full-length version of the "Rangers Are Forever" closing theme. The version that played during the credits sounded like it was edited for time.
Thanks for viewing. I could only find to full (?) verison on TH-cam. I don't think there's a longer one. th-cam.com/video/jtNtF-kitt0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6Yr-NjSuAdeeG75E
@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt Thank YOU for being part of this awesome show! I remember as a kid saying this beats Transformers. THAT'S how good GR was. Animation, designs, story, & incredible music = Total package!
Hi, David. Hope life is treating you well.Let me know what you're up to. I'm planning a "Then & Now video of the art staff. Look for my Dennis J. Woodyard - Journeyman Artist on Facebook: facebook.com/djwjourneymanartist/
@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt hey. When people ask me what project was the most fun, I always say it was GR. A frat house where many of us got to go in every day and get paid for playing Alfed Hitchcock and creature designers and see our work followed to the letter by the animators in Japan; jobs don't get more fun then that in your 20's. I've gone full-on Christian movie in recent years; trying to bring some peace into the world while playing autuer in a genre with mind-blowing ROI at the theaters. TH-cam doesn't allow links but if you Google "godsarmored" and the usual period followed by the usual c word, there is the one finishing up now plus a link to the studio. Be interested in what you think. Then you can tell me YOUR life story! If you look at my older career reel, I still list GR. It's now regarded by anime fans as a cult classic. Re-watching a couple of the episodes after all these years, it plays much stronger. Things are never good enough in the artists eyes when done. It takes years to step away and see it clearly, pro and con. I will never forget my eccentric plywood desk and when David Gregg came up to me with a shiny new drawing table in a box, I refused to allow it. I started at that silly plywood desk and came to love it for its absolutely outrageous eccentricity! Fun, fun, fun! You can slo look up my name with the usual period and c word. My personal spot, not my studio. I wrote a script too late for GR that Robert accepted for the never-seen season 2. The rangers are assigned to keep the peace on a planet where the ants were evolved to smallish human size and intelligent, standing on their back two legs with the front legs evolved into arms. It's the first- ever peace negotiation between the red ants and the black ants, which have a chemically-induced obligatory hate response to each other like red and black ants on earth, and things get hectic when it turns out Niko tries to read the mind of the red ant and discovers it's a robot fitted with a nuclear bomb. I still remember the end, mostly, as the Rangers are flying away in the pheonix to their next adventure. NIKO: The ******? are an iconography-oriented society. I wonder what kind of statue they'll build to honor (black ant name forgotten), the one who saved their race?" ZACH:"I don't know, but whatever it's made of, it won't be red or black." Pretty heavy-handed anti-racist messaging, but I am a heavy-handed writer by nature, LOL. At this point in life, there's no logic to being cute about the fact! I'll never forget the day when you led a few of the guys, names withheld, out the door and I asked where you were going. You said, "to see Citizen Kane." Our lanky, funny guy said, " Yeah. Dennis is taking us to learn cinema." I WAS MORTIFIED, LOL! But the show turned out great anyway. Thank you for that. Hailing frequencies are open, Dennis. Maintain subspace contact!
@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt I was happily reminiscing about good times and it's all gone. If you want to know where I'm at, just Google my name with the word studios. When you see the guy with the same cat in my avatar, that's me.
Amazing how many animated shows either got cancelled after 1 episode or only lasted a short season and all were fantastic Saying that this show got over 60 episode for 1 season which is alot
Amazing to say the least! I wonder Mr. Woodyard if you know why the individual names of the Japanese animators at Tokyo Movie Shinsa remained uncredited. Because talent should be honored!
I totally agree, the TMS staff deserved screen a screen credit, but that's something that was the producers handled. My thinking was TMS didn't push for it, because at the time they were trying to establish a strong relationship in the US market.
@@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt thanks a lot for your reply! I only wonder, because another series featured at least a few names. BIONIC SIX. I wish that series would be available on DVD and BD. In it's full length, not the condensed, more or less recent broadcast. It is too bad, that has become such an unknown obscurity.
Thanks for viewing. There were Galaxy Rangers figures made, and released for the original series run, in the 80s, but weren't wider sold in the US. I only have a Zachary Fox figure I found accidentally in Paris, France. There suppused to be new figures made in 2006, with the release of the Collection set Vol. 1 & 2, but they were never produced. Thanks, again, for watching.
With your pencil work, i assume the japanese studios have some kind of creative liberities with composition of shots, adding their own flare and dynamics to it, though still following your boards in terms of direction and setup
Believe when I say, the success (?) of the Rangers was largely the result of the masterful, and talented hard work the TMS animation studio. I feel eternally indebted to them.
Thanks for info. The Galaxy Ranger theme is one of the best cartoon opening songs ever. Here's a funny bit, I just remembered. The producers want to give the Ranger a signature call out, like "Thundercats Hoo!" and GI Joe's "GO, JOES!", it's in the show's script, but because they (stupidly) recorded the dialog to match the animation, instead of the proper way, the animation action was too short and clipped to get a dramatic take. I'll have to find it and do a short video of it. Thanks for watching.
@@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt There were a few instances where I recall Zachary calls out "Rangers Ho!!" and I thought Steve Overland sang not only "No Guts, No Glory", but also the end titles song, "Rangers Are Forever". Videos with his name on them are all over youtube.
the theme song was the best of the 80s cartoons, no doubt about this, im 50 years old and im hear the soundtrack always I can. Why this amazing cartoon doenst inspire a film? but it wouldn't be incredible without this fantastic soundtrack
It seems to that the voice actor who did the voice of Brappo originally was suppose to voice Captain Kidd. The producers obviously thought his voice was wrong for character so he voiced Brappo instead and the producers got another voice actor to voice Captain Kidd.
What animation studio did this? And was this just for the Pilot/Demo? Cause this was great! Couldn't have been from the US. They weren't putting in this much work.
Captain Kidd and Shane Gooseman sound odd and Zachary Foxx was definitely not Jerry Orbach. Man, I loved this show as a teen especially the SuperTrooper episodes, One Million Emotions, Armada, etc. it’s cool to see the evolution of Goose as a concept to spotlighted in SuperTrooper. This show deserved so much better merchandising and toys back in the day. I’ll take a life size Niko today 😂
It's possible the actors on the demo, were not the final actors used of the series. I wasn't involved in the aspect of the production. That is not unusual. Thanks for viewing.
Wow...I designed the action scene with Maya, but I honestly can't recall if the dual lightsaber was my original idea. That would be cool if it was. Thanks for noticing it.
This show went so hard! Loved it as little girl! The theme song and animation still blows me away. Doc was my absolute fave.
Mr. Woodyard, I’m 50 years young and I can’t tell you how excited I am to be able to thank you. Your work was (is still) a huge inspiration to me. Bless you for all the work you’ve done over the years and for giving me some of my best childhood memories. Thank you 🙏

@@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt I will
I always loved that theme song, which now i realize is a bunch of platitudes strung together. And The Goose was my favorite.
haha, same
The song was the only good thing about the show, otherwise, compared to the likes of Saber Rider, it was rather sub-par.
Maaaaannn... it was a very happy part of my childhood playing with these actin figures and watching the TV show! Thanks for sharing.

@@anubis19801 Still they do not wrap the principal plot, so it is still lacking a complete ending, meaning the destiny of Zachary´s wife.

@@anubis19801 Exactly, to me it was the main story of the series, and as we can see the Rangers were sort of created to rescue her also
One of the best animated cartoon series!!
So coolly drawn, always reminds me of Bionic6...(same Studio?!?)
Childhood memories...
Cool Special!
Yes, same studio. TMS Entertainment/Tokyo Movie Shinsha, if I'm not mistaken.
@@DarthEquus 🤜🤛🤖👍
Cheers from Switzerland. Was a massive fan of the show and the french version of the main theme had even better vocal lines imho.
Crazily good looking show for its time...
Thanks for all the inspiration for me as a teen back then, mate...

The Golden Age of animation ❤
Wow captain kid had a very different voice in the pilot.
No guts, no glory. So much unrealized potential...
Sucks that we don't get this quality of cartoons like this in the present day.
wish we could upscale these with AI someday. Would love to watch all of these again!

No guts no glory ❤
in spañish they were called "guardians of galaxy" so when was release the marvel movie I sang "No guts, No glory"
Need a reboot.

TMS.
@@DennisWoodyard-DragonflyEnt Ah, yeah, thank you.
Tokyo Movie Shinsa (TMS) This was One of the greatest animated series of all time.
No Guts, No Glory!
ROFLMAO, The commander/piolet is Zachary Spock??? REALLY; Well Now, that's one way to combine "Lost In Space" with "Star Trek" 🙂
Good animation on the space ships. Now make it for an audience older than 8 year olds. Why do we have to watch foreign animation for that?
First double bladed lightsaber
Wow...I designed the action scene with Maya, but I honestly can't recall if the dual lightsaber was my original idea. That would be cool if it was. Thanks for noticing it.
It sounds like Voltron.
