Vor-Tech was an animated television series produced by Fox and Universal Animation which also aired later on ABC's The Power Block. This show also had a toy line.
The VOR-tech undercover conversion squad is a group of secret agents led by Hudson Roarke. Their mission is to stop Lord Matrix, Hudson’s older brother, and his evil Bio Mechs (much like the Phalanx creatures in the X-Men comic titles) from infecting the world with a techo-infectious plague. In their battle with the Bio Mechs, VOR-tech agents use special computer systems with VOR-technology that imbue them and their vehicles with special powers. Similar to M.A.S.K. agents, VOR-tech agents also had special masks and transforming vehicles.
One of the voice actors who did this show was who played the evil Lord Matrix (alias Damien Roarke), the other voice actor was Michael Donovan who played Shepard (aka Hudson Roarke) who led VOR-tech.

Sloan), Lenore Zahn, Saffron Henderson, and Elizabeth Carol Savenkoff (characters: Rick/Ace, Tate/Hacksaw, Mac/Gearhead, Brad/SnakeOil).
David Sobolov is known for his work on Transformers: Beast Wars.
Unlike M.A.S.K., the show Vor-Tech had trouble staying on the air thus not completing its final episode which left fans with a cliff hanger.
