I actually made x bomber out of lego many many years ago! With the 3 dai x attachments. I wish i still had it lol. I've got the dvd box set with all the episodes. My fondest memories was watching starfleet at my grandparents on a saturday afternoon. I remember the death of doctor Ben and it made me quite sad at the time.

So did I. I still love it so much that I recently bought an original Dai X model from a Ebay seller in Japan. It was a small fortune and Dai X may have beaten robot tanks, the death ball and the imperial alliance, however, he could not defeat HM customs and revenue. Who charged an extra 20%to import. But, after all that, he stands proudly with his original box and sword (not that I can recall a sword in the series, but never mind) on the living room shelf. The 5 year old in me is quite happy 😊.

Two relatively unknown manga were also created in 1980. One was drawn by Naoki Kamohara and published in the magazine Monthly Shōnen Jump by Shueisha from June 1980 to August 1980 and the other was drawn by Makoto Ono in the magazine TV-kun by Shogakukan from November 1980 to April 1981.

@Sinjin4000 the problem in nowadays is not being made in computer, but being made without a single thread of decent history between episodes, for example, look at every single power rangers episode story: "this is the good guys that's the bad guy, good guys face bad guy, they get beat in a first stage then win! the end" they are all the same except with some VERY THIN stuff that allows viewers to know if the episode they are seeing is before or after another episode... very sad...

@ToastedAlmond986 жыл бұрын
It's partly that, but mostly because the original Japanese version had some long-ass lines of dialogue, apparently to allow the voice actors to compensate for the puppets' lack of emotion. In most cases, the literal English translation would only have half as many syllables, so they have to stretch it out or add things.
