Masters of the Universe 2 became Cyborg because whatever company it was that released them (Cannon, I think) had a contract to make a movie somewhere down the line with Van Damme but was more concerned with the Masters sequel because Van Damme was a nobody and Masters had at least name recognition. Then Bloodsport comes out and Van Damme's a star, so they shut down Masters 2 in pre-production and come up with a script for Van Damme utilizing the sets and costumes they already put together for Masters 2.
They also released a really, really bad movie tie-in comic (I have the first issue, because it was free. You had to order two thru four).
The only Van Damme movie I liked was Universal Soldier, because Dolph is the shit. Cyborg 2 (without Van Damme) was cool because it was the first place I remember seeing and taking note of Angelina Jolie (before she became Miss Hollywood and started making crap).
