Damm...finnally after some serious searching through the Retrojunk.com site, I finnally found that one cartoon that I use to watch as a todler. I always remembered it as your typical "robot cartoon" shows, but this one had an odd array of characters who seem unlikely to solve anything but when combined together, nothing can stop them. I also remember that little girl who had the key-thing in her chests which helps them all form the giant robot.....

I use to watch this every saturday morning back in '84......and mysteriously it disapeared and I've always wondered what ever happen to this show and if anyone else remembered it. I couldnt even remember the title of the show...but I'm glad I found...now i wonder if their are any episodes I can find somehwere...

Check e-bay. Episodes are sold there all the time on VHS and DVD. In fact, most of the time, it's the entire 13 episode set.

I used to love this cartoon as a kid.

yeah, theres a guy whos selling dvds of of all the episodes. apparently he copied them from some poor vhs recordings and everyones who had bought the set complained of really bad quality...

Until the maker decides to put them out thats the only way to get them. VHS tapes are horrible when it comes to holding an image for 20 years. the more you play the worse it gets.I also use to watch this show every sat, still have the theme song going through my head though I doubt its still correct after all these years.

Don't buy those crappy grey-market DVD's, they're not worth it at all. Wait until the show comes out on DVD from Warner Home Video, or until Boomerang shows it.
