VR Troopers is a live-action superhero TV show that was made by Saban Entertainment from 1994 to 1996. The show tried to cash in on people's interest in virtual reality in the early 1990s as well as the success of Power Rangers. The show had early CGI and video effects, as well as Japanese stock footage from three different Metal Hero Series: Superhuman Machine Metalder, Dimensional Warrior Spielban, and Space Sheriff Shaider. This method of adapting multiple shows into one show was first used in anime shows like Robotech and Voltron, but this was one of the first times this method was used for a tokusatsu adaptation. On May 7, 2010, the copyright for VR Troopers was moved from BVS International to SCG Power Rangers. Saban's VR Troopers was the first official "sister series" to Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, the most popular "action fighting kid show" at the time. Like it, this was an Americanized version of a Japanese tokusatsu children's show made by Toei Company LTD. The series was viewed as successful, but not as successful as the Power Rangers franchise. Unfortunately for the series, the Japanese footage ran out quickly because of the extreme cases where multiple tokusatsu scenes were put together in one episode. This meant that stock footage had to be used multiple times throughout the series. In a similar way, another Saban show, Big Bad Beetleborgs, would do well, but it would end quickly because there wasn't enough stock footage. Both series were made from the Japanese Metal Heroes series. The show led to a toy line and a video game for the Sega Genesis and Sega Game Gear.
