Loved this show, but I have to go with Ultraman. I think because I started watching that first and Ultraman is way more agile than this guy. Plus Ultraman was not owned by some Japanese kid.
This by far was my introduction to the Asian culture at age 6 and loved this series and watched everyone of them there after, and still try to find them today, just amazing thank you for posting them
Just bought the entire series on dvd on ebay. Really cheap too! Can't wait to watch them and relive the simple times of the '70's when all the kids rode bikes and played outside. I was almost never indoors as a kid. Nowadays, completely different world for kids.
@OMGsDRugz I dont know what rofl is . and I know know who posted that comment using my screen name becouse I like both giant robot and utra man . Oh ,,, thank you whopitup . I like your video .
I remember watching this back in 1971 to 1972. I was living in Kansas and was in the 2nd grade. I absolutley loved this show. This was the first time seeing this show since 1972...wow!
I'll bet that *you* and *your* childhood chums had the same debate Back In The day..Who'd whip the other's butt in a fight? The Giant Robot or Ultraman/
I am with all you guys-I grew up in the St. Louis suburbs and first saw it around age 7 or 8. I'm freakin' out it's so cool. My wife and kids finally understand! Check out the old Ultraman here too! 35 years is too long to see this stuff again , amen? I know, man!
I used to watch this in the early 70's. I was like 8. It was everything a young boy could ask for in a cheap sci-fi series. Poor lip-sync. Enemy soldiers getting shot and rolling around. Low budget costumes. Really bad explosion effects.
so did I. I even forgot that the robot was actually (spoiler alert) destroyed at the end of the series. I guess I blocked it out of my mind it was so traumatic. sob...sob...sob
Your dad wasn't lying. I happened upon a website selling this on VHS...ripped off the packaging when I got it, played it, and tears of joy started flowing....great, great memories
I used to LOVE THIS!! I watched it every afternoon after school!!
