Incredible how technology opened a window to yesterday, by giving me access to music, video, people and information I thought lost forever. Little did I know that what I thought would remain a memory, would be available for me to view and experience once again, and there after...

It is time for all man to be as one, and to share the world in peace...

There's old school anime then there's classic. With me, modern anime 1958-1980 is classic while 1980-2000 is old school while 2000-present is modern era.

This was adapted from a 1965-'66 Japanese series, "YUSEI SHONEN PAPI", 'coney island'. American-International decided they wanted to make money by syndicating an imported "Japanimated" series in the U.S. {i.e. "ASTRO BOY", "GIGANTOR", "8TH MAN", et. al.}, bought the American rights to this series, and recorded new English soundtracks with a new theme...

Has this been officially released on DVD yet??? If so, where can I obtain it??? I grew up watching this series!! I even made my own Prince Planet pendant out of an old Maxwellhouse top (the red one with the star on it).

Was this Japanese?

Originally released in syndication in September 1966.

This show was the balls! I could never remember the name of the cartoon or character. I had vague memories and never thought I'd fill the blanks in my memory. I was really young when this was on channel 38 or 56 in the Boston tv market. What a great find. I remembered he was from outer space and had a pendant that charged. My recall was that the pendant had an R not a P. I was wrong. I must;ve been 4 or 5 yrs old maybe younger.
