Dai X Junction and Battle from Star Fleet

Dai X is an early example of a combining mecha of the eighties. It was one of the stars of X Bomber in Japan, known as Star Fleet when dubbed for the UK market. This clip shows the Dai X fighters combining to form the mighty Dai X which then proceeds to rip apart an Imperial Alliance base!

Was Dai X a bloke in suit like godzilla and the power rangers, or was he a puppet. Its difficult to tell.

[ExcelsiorUK]

Both in fact - on land, walking around, it's a bloke in a suit. In space, it's just models.

Nevermind, you already did, lol.

Not quite - DVD isn't out just yet, these are from some encoding I did from very, very old US tapes of the series. The DVD will be better as it will be the UK version of the series, which is longer...

I always thought of Star Fleet as the "Early Power Rangers" Anyone else think that aswell?

[shaider1982]

Wow! I watched this when I was still a kid. It was shown here in the Philippines at channel 7.

For me, always and forever, the ultimate Mecha. : '- )

[romainechester]

Shows in the early days had more 'heart.'

It's like a guy genuinely attracted to a girl vs one who just wants to get in her pants.

Better than any of the CGI shit kids watch these days..

The Dai X was the most awesome thing in any puppet show.

[AshleyMarkPomeroy]

Cor, I remember this. It still looks pretty slick, and top marks for making space blue instead of boring old black. It made Terrahawks look a bit crap.
