Stumbled across this failed TV show this morning and now I want to find it streaming somewhere. I did a quick search and came across this: http://www.forgotten.tv/2017/08/forgott ... -toys.html Looks like some neat designs kind of MASK-esque.

I always enjoyed watching the show.

One of the Street Hawk, Knight Rider, Airwolf style shows. I remember seeing it and loving the idea of the helicopter launching from the truck. And Sam “Flash Gordon” Jones. That’s about all I recall.

I remember that show. For some reason, the episode I really remember was one where a robot created to kill went to a city and the Highwayman had to stop him before he killed his target. The twist was that the robot wasn't a killer. This was almost ten years before the movie Solo (with Mario Van Peebles) explored the same concept.

I have no memory of that series, but have to say that slot car semi looks really cool.

Of course, had to go down the rabbit hole and find some clips online, then read about where the real semi ended up. That made my day - in one discussion about the series, someone mentioned how the transformation from semi to helicopter was done with CGI. I had to laugh at that one.

If you've forgotten that Jacko was on it, you should see a doctor.
