Bio-Man (Unreleased Saban Pilot)

Before the Super Sentai series Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger was into Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, a pilot was made for an adaptation for the Super Sentai series Choudenshi Bioman by Haim Saban in 1986 titled Bio-Man. The pilot was rejected and didn’t result in a series on any American networks. Despite not been released or shown by Saban Entertainment, footage from the pilot was reused in a promo for Saban Brands Galaxy Rangers using Zyuranger footage instead of Bioman footage. It can currently be seen on bonus disk one of the MMPR DVD boxset as a hidden Easter egg. Galaxy Rangers was later reworked into Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Plot
