And other transforming American Heroes, theres a serious lack of information on them.


Double Dragon, Bravestar and a few others.
Can someone please point me in the right direction for a good site or a few pictures of these guys?

Well, there's good ol' Pazaz (http://www.pazsaz.com/arthur.html) Then I found some info on a video game here (http://www.gamewinners.com/snes/KingArthurKnightsOfJustice.htm).
There's some videos on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000F0FL/inktomi-videoasin-20/ref%3Dnosim/002-0528587-2944006).
Hmm, according to the Big Cartoon Database (http://www.bcdb.com/pages/Other_Studios/B/Bohbot_Entertainment/Amazin__Adventures_I/King_Arthur_And_The_Knights_Of_Justice/), King Arthur & co. were a football team??? With King Arthur as the quarterback???

But Toonarific (http://www.toonarific.com/k/kingartknightsjustice-pics.html)is the only one I see with halfway decent pictures. You might want to look around for some info on those other cartoons on some of these sites,too.

the basic plot was that King Arthur and his knights were imprisoned in a magical barrier that they couldn't break out of. Merlin was the only one in camelot who knew of this and decided to bring forth brave knights from another era to act as their replacement. It just so happens that the brave knights were a football team called the knights and the quarterback and captain was named Arthur. Don't you just love funny coincidences? So now Arthur and his team act as Camelots knights and fulfill their predecessors roles. And to my knowlege, Merlin is still the only one in Camelot who knows they are not the real knights

I never saw the King Arthur show, but it does have an awesome theme song.

BraveStarr is basically 80s He-Man with cowboys. Nothing very special. Check out the fantastic Galaxy Rangers instead.

Never saw Double Dragon, but I've heard it was pretty bad.

I remember watching that show as a kid. I wonder, did they ever manage to save the old knights? I remember keys being involved somehow...

I don't recall there ever being a concluding episode. For all we know, they may all be in Camelot looking for a way home yet.

"King Arthur and his Shining Knights" and "Double Dragon" were BKN shows, which generally can be pretty difficult to pick up info on. Some guy was trying to organize a campaign to bring BKN back as a network, you might contact him at sixxdogg@juno.com to see if he has any information on the show. Or you might try contacting BKN directly, there's a lot of contact numbers or addresses at http://pub70.ezboard.com/fmonsterrancher4520frm15.showMessage?topicID=329.topic.

I imagine you could pick up info on "Bravestar" wherever there is a good web-site on Filmation.
