My favorite show as a boy.

I want to see it fire the wave motion gun!

That would be something to see. 

I was more of a Battle of the Planets kid! 

Neat Video! Been a fan of Starblazers since I was a kid. I have a few of the Bandai model Yamato's. I REALLY want the big 1/350 scale version, but I don't want to blow the 750 bucks on it.

Ahh wow, i'd completely forgotten about that one.  It was called GForce here.

And just had to go searching to find another classic...... "Voltron"

And one quote i keep saying to my daughter (and yep, she always looks at me weird).....  "Wonder Twin powers, activate!"

(and of course, can't go past Thunderbirds).

Oh yes thunderbirds.

Battle of The Planets was great  - Gatchman is the original Japanese name for the anime series.

Ooooh, I love Thunderbirds.

 

Oh yes! You have the dolls to. I never saw them.

I had a motorised Thunderbird #3 as a kid, no idea what happened to it.
Recently purchased most of the Aoshima Thunderbird model kits, still a couple more to get.
