@KirkysWorld yeah, I read up on that show and they say its the closest to the manga that you can pretty much get.. Getter Robo and Getter Robo G had stroy continuity but they had to clean if up for family veiwing.. in the manga that predated the TV shows, the Getter Pilots were chosen for thier "Darkside energy" or "Yin Force"..training didnt matter, the Getter handled all that, they just jumped right in the cockpit without any training, none needed..just fighting sprit. ( very Eastern idea)

@KirkysWorld I got it from Netflix under the name "New Getter Robo" but like you said its confusing bc Ive also heard it called "Shin (New) Getter Robo".. it came out in 1998 and they showed the Getter Graveyard under the base, Getter energy leaking out of a big pile of "Getter Robo G" eara Posiden robots with Getter 1s thrown in for good measure. They give some hints that Getter Rays may be coming from "Hell" in a parallel dimension.They keep giving hints that Getter rays arent a good thing.

@Gloomshadow100 It does get kind of confusing as there are so many series, you mean Shin Getter Vs Neo Getter Robo?
Armageddon also had Shin Getter Robo in it, New Getter Robo was an awesome series
-
@KirkysWorld yeah it is, but I havent seen "Armageddon" yet. They had the Getter Graveyard in "New Getter Robo" or "Shin Getter Robo" depending on where the DVD came from. But yeah, thats the one that fought the mass produciton Getters. Then there is the Black Getter, its like that one but has a different face.. then they got the Black Shin Getter.. they got so many of them.

@Gloomshadow100 Are we talking same series? I believe this Getter I reviewed is the mass one used by Ryoma to battle the mass production Getter Robo G's

@Gloomshadow100 I know, I saw them on what was it....Betacord? lol before VHS. it was all i could get here in Australia.

@KirkysWorld that series got kinda complicated in terms of Getter robots, the base had a whole Getter graveyard underneath it of old retired Getters and also a bunch of Training robots that were white and blue, Im all that sure if they all could even transform or not.Some would just appear in a film and get blown up in seconds. They werent all the same and they had alot of those robots in that base.

Good spot, I realised after this was posted initially, I should have made a comparrison not said it was directly like the 70's Getter. Its the Getter Robo version from the Armaggedon box set you can get on DVD.
It is in the likeness of the original, as is the otehr one I will review soon (star Dragon)
I just finished the 4th CD of that show. Its called "New Getter Robo" (2004) Turns out the Getter Rays came from Hell and beyond, some Gods are trying to destroy the Getter bc they say its sinful to put a "Soul inside a Doll", so the Getter soul and the souls of the pilots all kinda merge into one thing.

@Gloomshadow100 Yeah man I know, I've got the DVD set here (found at a shop for $50) its a great series, i love the animosity between the pilots it seems like a completely different take on them.
If you watch Shin Getter Robo Vs. Neo Getter Robo its good story too, new piliots with the original.
