Tubi added a cartoon series that couldn't be any less mid 90s. SKYSURFER STRIKEFORCE! Dont remember it? Dont worry barely anyone does. Made in 1995 but took over two years to air all 22 episodes due to poor budgets.

I once found a vhs tape of the pilot that was not supposed to be for sale but was being sent to buisnesses asking for them to join in on funding the show, the tapes points out how Long John Silvers was already on board to make promo toys. The show did air yet many episodes were rushed which is evident in sound mix issues in some episodes. The infamous rudy and Spears did the first 13 epusodes then the final ten were by Ashi in Japan which becomes very obvious, not just became episode 14 gains a wacky theme song and slow ending credits. Basically in plots right out of gi joe meets jayce and the wheeled warriors and c.o.ps, we get square jaws blonde stereotype hero SkySurfer One Jack Holiston who uses his missing fathers tech to make him and his friends into air surfboard riding super heros. With transformation scenes that will remind you of Power rangers and Reboot. But its the evil robot Cybron and his weird cyborg lackies that make this show. One of the villian is called Grenader and he is just a giant grenade man that blows up when he wants to. And he is also not even, the weirdest villian.

The heros are weird too with bad names like Air Enforcer, Sliced Ice , Crazy Stunts and Soar Loser..get it Soar? But still everyone calls him Loser, what the hell? Style thats so similar to the Wildcats and Ultraverse cartoons coming out at that time, which is funny cause those shows stunk and tanked too. I guess all of them just stole costume design from Xmen. Also fashionable mullets like 90s Superman. But as hokey and cheap as the show was it was still pretty epic. With episodes with giant killer ants, brain stealers in the alps, a time bubble to the 1920s and I love the episode where Sliced Ice is turned 50 feet tall and forced to attack everyone like a kaiju.

I miss you every day, Cheesie. <3

I never thought I'd have just over a year with you, but what an amazing year it was with you.
