About Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs:
Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs explore with their powerful Star ship "Ramrod" the new frontier, the wide-open ranges of outer space, where the legendary honor and virtue of the Wild West combine with vibrant extraterrestrial adventure. Saber Rider is the dashing leader of the Star Sheriffs. Their mission is to establish peace and unity against the Outriders, mysterious vapor beings led by the powerful Nemesis. Joined by assorted rustlers and desperado's, the Outriders challenge the Star Sheriffs to action-packed attacks.
Independently, the Star Sheriffs' efforts to maintain justice are admirable — but when united, they are almost invincible.
