The Galaxy Rangers on AllMovie

Galaxy Rangers is the two-hour pilot for ITF's daily animated TV series The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers. Set in 2086, the story begins when two peaceful space aliens, rescued from certain doom by the World Federation of Earth, gratefully provides their human saviors with blueprints for the first hyperdriven space vehicle. This enables the Federation to form the Bureau of Extra-Terrestrial Affairs (BETA). Captain Zachary Fox (voice by Jerry Orbach), part-bionic skipper of the hyperdrive, is the main BETA peacekeeper. From here on in, Galaxy Rangers metamorphoses into an outer-space western, with Fox and his multicultural crew protecting space homesteaders and prospectors from such villains as the Queen of the Crown, Captain Kidd the robot parrot, and Darth Vader-clone Seven-Zero. Good guys and bad spend most of their time in pursuit of the Star Stone, an ore even more valuable than gold (italics ours).
