The Centurions were a HUGE part of my childhood 😭

As a kid in the 80s I thought this franchise was way more popular at the time than it really was. Now I know.

Man and Machine... POWER EXTREME! God I loved this show...

Dude, Centurions was the $#¡+ ! Completely underrated. We actually had all 3 figures, and it was a good Christmas when we got Sky Knight, Wild Weasel, AND Tidal Wave! 🙂

Harrison Ford, Tom Selleck, & Rock Hudson were great in that series.

This 2 season show had the most serious story lines which you didn't appreciate until you got older. One of the rare intelligent western animated series for children. produced in the 80s

_"She wasn't alone out in space though, she had an orangutan named Lucy."_

I think Centurions would work today. The toy line and the story narrative. I would like that today. . .

I loved this show when I was still a kid... this is the first time I ever even heard about the toys.

They need to bring the show back and make a movie

As a kid I always liked Jake Rockwell! He was the Rugged Land Operations Specialist. I'll never forget the tag line voice over at the end "Man and Machine! Power Extreme!"

Don't forget Jack 'the King' Kirby help develop the Centurions. I remember when it first aired. One of my all time favourite cartoon. Hope it comes back some day in one form or another.

I wasn’t born till 89, however I watched this show all the time on boomerang or whatever it might of been called in the early 90s. It’s to bad the show couldn’t be revived.

No joke the series was animated by Sunrise same people who made gundam .

Fighting the Space Madness sounds like a better idea for a kid's show.

I grew up in the '90s and early 2000s, but caught reruns of this show on TV as a kid. I thought it was awesome. Alongside the old Transformers reruns I used to watch, I count this as the reason I now love '80s toys and cartoons so much. I'm fully aware that this probably makes me the only person on the planet to consider themself a fan of The Centurions despite not actually having been alive when it was around, but I'll own that.

Dear Toy Galaxy...Please Do COPS!!! Fighting crime in the future time!

This is the youtube video I never knew I needed in my life

I loved this show!!! Jake was the best and “The sky is on fire” (I think that’s what it was called) was a banging episode

7:04 is a Freaking Shark with a Freaking laser gun mounted oh his head!

I Named my Husky after Shadow, Long Live Centurions.

Loved this cartoon. Me and my friends tried to make lego versions.

I remember seeing this on Cartoon Network as a kid. Was so cool ☺️ I could never find the toys till we finally had a Toy’s R Us years later but never bought them sadly. I forgot it was called Centurions though 😂

I remember watching this on Boomerang when I was a kid. Back then on Sunday's they showed all the action cartoons. It was a cool show.

I FUCKING LOVED THIS SHOW AS A KID and still do. This could be a huge franchise. Don’t know who owns the rights but I want a TRANSFORMERS, MASK AND CENTURIONS shared universe (not GI Joe tho... no one liked that outside of the US)

I would love to see this show make a comeback. It was one of favorites when I was little kid. With how advanced technology as become in today's age I think this show could thrive.

This was my favourite show as a kid by far, and so few people even know or remember it. This needs to come back.

As a kid, I loved the toy line and the show. Ace was probably my favorite toy of all time.

Jake Rockwell will always stand out to me because he had an armor set called “Wild Weasel”, that basically turned him into a bike.

Fun Fact: Had the second year of toys been released, Kenner were considering adding a new 6th member to the Centurion team named Vic McCloud who would have been Ace's previously unmentioned brother and would have been a space specialist.

These were some of my favorite toys to play with.

Centurions along with the real ghostbusters was my favourite cartoon growing up in the 80's. Never saw the toys though until a few years ago on ebay. Didn't even know they existed but would have definitely picked them up in the 80's if i did.

Once again you've given me an awesome case of childhood memories. The cartoon was awesome, as were the figures. I had Max Ray. Would love to see an update cartoon or even a movie.

These were great, I liked the concept of interchangeable weapons and the size of the figures was an attraction. Unfortunately the cost was too high. Once you bought the figures you of course wanted to buy the add on weaponry packs, and it all just became too much unless you really wanted to devote yourself to one toy line

I believe I discovered Centurions on the toy aisle first, and the toys were awesome. Somehow, Centurions was the toyline I had the most of (and managed to keep what I had). I know I watched the cartoon, but I'm pretty sure it was after I got my first Centurion toy (Max Ray, the underwater guy, green exoframe)

Holy moly!!! What a blast from the past. I remember talking about these toys with a colleague about 5 years ago and wracked my brain and searched google to try and figure out what they were called! Now I know!!! I just have to try and remember the colleague I was talking to at the time so i can also enlighten them! Great vids btw. Oh to be a child again in the golden age of toys - Star Wars, mask, GI Joe, he-man, and of course centurion!!!!

My first exposure to Centurions was seeing a friend of mine with the McCloud toy. It looked so awesome to me that I asked my parents for one, and eventually got it. I loved the gimmick, and I think these could be rolled right into the GI Joe collective universe too, with the right planning. The show was fun, but the toys were the bigger hit for me. Of course, all those little add-ons and missiles would get lost so easily, but it was all still a lot of fun at the time.

“Centuri’ONS” or Centurians as i’ve always pronounced it

I Lol'd when you cut to Crow T. Robot saying "McCloud". Well played, sir. Well played.

I loved this as a kid. Instead of more DC/Marvel movies, I'd wish for someone to make a Centurions movie.

this is an awesome dose of nostalgia. please cover dino riders !!!

The Centurions was one of the best cartoons of the 1980s. Way better than G. I. Joe! Max Ray was my fave character.

I loved this show. I still love this show.

Loved Ace’s voice Neil Ross. When I first saw the 86 transformers movie and heard Springer talk I immediately thought of Ace from centurions...excellent.

i liked only Ace because Max was like Uncle whom we never care about, Jake was like a loner with his pet dog but Ace was a swashbuckling playboy.

The Centurions had the 3 most manliest names.....

I loved this cartoon growing up. Man did they name them well, Ace Mcloud? Spot on!

I hope there will be a remake of this movie, either anime or live action using existing 3D technology, that will be very awesome....

Orbet...orbati...ord...oh FUDGE!!!!😡 One of my favorite toy lines...I miss my Ace McCloud 😢...someday I'll tell the tragic story of what happened to my toys...😢 Great video guys! 👍🏽✌🏽

I first saw this on Cartoon Network in the early 90's.

brings back so many childhood memories 😭😭😭😭

Now that Netflix is throwing up all kinds of series, they ought to make some movie pilots for various 80s cartoons, including Centurions. That would be a great way to capitalize off nostalgia.

What about UPN's Arthur and the Knights of Justice. I loved the concept and hate that we never get closure on anything we enjoyed story wise because of poor toy sales.

Id like to see a History of Spiral Zone.

I had Ace McCloud and Jake Rockwell. Wow!! I had forgotten about the Centurions!! *laughing*

"A call to plastic arms--" Bravo.

I remember watching the show when I was in the hospital after they found out I was a diabetic. Take care and God bless

"Hey, that dog didn't put missile launchers on HIMSELF!" I'm freaking dying! PAWSable deniability. I also loved that it was designed by three legendary artists/creators- Gil Kane (defined the Silver Age Green Lantern & Atom), Doug Wildey (Johnny Quest), and Jack the King Kirby!

I’m not sure how much I knew about the line or the show but there was an “under water guy” and I loved the idea of the interchangeable parts! These figures were very durable with stiff joints and heavy duty plastics. They need to relaunch this exact line, with maybe a few more points of articulation!

Yeah Buddy! Loved Centurions when I was little. I had Ace, Jake and Hacker but never got Max or Doc Terror. Had a bunch of the extra sets too for Ace & Jake. Really cool toys for the time. Been working on a set of customs myself.

Had a Centurions back pack in 1st grade.

Today's kids will never know the uncomfortable feeling of their action heroes being unironically moustached.

Ah what memories. Thanks for breaking my heart by reminding me how 'not popular' they were, ultimately.

One of my favorite cartoons!...I had all the action figures and most of the accessories too!!

Ace Mccloud was my dude had the figure when I was little but sadly only the add on set he came with and the space set I think the set he came with was called sky night but can't remember the space one

Spiral Zone. Please do Spiral Zone.

I love Centurions since day one! Had all the toys, watched every episode and now that I have it on DVD, my kids are fans too!

I’m laughing hysterically at your choice as Shadow. “All the power with none of the responsibility!”

Have you ever considered making a Captain Power video? That’s a toy line that everyone seems to have forgotten!

I have basically this entire line, saving it all for my children from the mid 80s (my mom was more generous... J/K she found most of it in a clearance bin). This was probably my favorite toy line after the transformers. Once my son turned 6 I gave him the toys... He was pretty underwhelmed except for the ability of Max to shoot shark missles. He's pretty much destroyed them at this point

this was a cool show, lots of action in every episode. i never had the toys tho. there was a drinking game back in the day called Centurions where you would attempt to drink 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes and if you were in the know say 'POWER EXTREME!!!' after every drink.... good times!

You keep taking me down memory lane. Loved these toys!

The closest I came to Centurions was a (ladybird?) book when I was a kid.. That aside, 10 extra points for the MST3K

When cartoon Network first started they aired this show all the time and that is how I was exposed to it. However since this was the mid 90s I could not get the toys and my brother didn't collect the line, he was more of a M.A.S.K. kid, so I never had any of them. :( I probably would have wanted Jake, because he had the most systems and thus the most stuff to swap around.

I looooved this show as a kid but neither I, nor anyone I knew at, had any of the toys. Jake was my favorite because I loved the fireforce configuration.

I love this cartoon and I miss it so very much

No no no no no no no lol that cat :D :D

If they did a live action Centurions film, they can consider casting: Max Ray: Robert Downey Jr. Ace McCloud: Bradley Cooper Jake Rockwell: Liam Neeson Crystal Kane: Scarlett Johansson Doc Terror: Tommy Lee Jones Hacker: Tom Hardy

The Centurians were cool for about 2 minutes...That cyber shark looked awesome.

This is one of my favorite cartoons ever

Centurions it was the Frame Arms Girls of the '80s... Except you don't feel uncofortable when you play with this toys....

it needs an anime reboot

I really never was a big fan of Centurions. But I liked it. Its was produced by Ruby Spears and they did a great job. Great animation quality and lots of action. A true 80s classic.

I was born in 86 and I remember being like 8 or 9 and my dad got one of those huge ass satellite dishes that sat on the roof of your house.... i might even have been 6 or 7 because I clearly remember I was the only kid in my neighborhood who had cartoon network and that's what I watched this on and absolutely no one knew of what this show was lol hell I never knew it came out in 86 so when I was watching it the show was already almost 10 years old wild shit

please someone recommend “The Centurions” animated be in a live action series to Michael Bay director of “the transformers”. this will be more suspense action than autobots

These where my first love! Then transformers took over my life lol

As far as I know this toy line never reached my country but my family has satellite TV when I was a kid and I remember catching a few episodes of the show.

Love me some Centurions! So many epic battles with them as a kid!

The covert ops guy was the worst. He never did any covert opsing

This needs to make a comeback with modern technology 😭😭😭

My favourite cartoon growing up. Loved it

I loved this show. Hopefully they can do a reboot one day💯

Would they have had a shark with frickin' laser beams?

I loved this show when I was a kid.

As a child, I loved the cartoon. It was one of my favorite's. Surprisingly never owned any of the toys.

I remember this show from a vhs tape I watched. It was probably a bargin bin vhs gem. I liked the show, in a typical 10 year old adhd way. It played into legos, but it just did not seem to last. Thanks for bringing this back, ill have to find old epsodes now.

Loved this cartoon!!!

POWER ICE CREAM !!! that is me 5 years old screaming while watching this cartoon back in the 80s 😂😂

Had em. Still got em.

That last segment about the dog was glorious!
