BEETLEBORGS METALLIX

(1996)

The Saban company in the USA, adapted a second Japanese series "B-Fighter Kabuto" into an English language version by cutting out all the non action scenes, and replacing these scenes with American actors and dialogue, then dubbing the action scenes into English. The first series was called "Big Bad Beetleborgs" and was adapted from "Juko Beetle Fighter". Beetleborgs Metallix picks up with inventor Arthur Fortunes providing new Beetle suits to the children, who must now save the world from Arthur's brother Lester. Saban also released three telemovies, edited down episodes of their two television series. These movies were "Beetleborgs: Curse of the Shadow Borg", "Beetleborgs: Vampire Files", edited episodes from "Big Bad Beetleborgs" and "Beetleborgs Metallix: The Movie" edited episodes from "Beetleborgs Metallix".
