I've been going through youtube Mecha opening compilations for the last few hours but haven't been able to spot it yet.Īfter skimming 100s of random Mecha/Sentai animes for the last 18months, I've finally found it: its Gyakuten! Ippatsuman (Sixth entry to the Time Bokan). It may be the same cartoon as the one asked about in this question.
Thanks everyone, I'm continuing to look at suggestions. some suggestions have multiple pilots and robots that merge together), but for completeness, I'm adding them to the above ruled out list. Note not all of the titles above fit the description (ie. It would have been an anime in the mid '80s – possibly early '90s.Įdit : guys, I'm updating the list above as people give suggestions and sharing titles which have been ruled out. I have a vague memory of the pilot also being a costumed hero and being able to jump really high. There are sometimes exceptions, as with the Telescoping. The switchover itself will either be a full-blown Transformation Sequence in Super Robot shows, or a lightning-fast parts shuffle in a Real Robot show. Other than the plane/attaching head, the robot/mecha doesn't combine with any other robots. The advantage to the mechanical transformation is that it's possible to design a toy that works almost exactly like the mecha on the show. The pilot was the main hero - single pilot, single robot/mecha. For some reason, I'm thinking more Dr Slump than Gundam/Evangelion - though that's a feeling more than a memory. From memory, it was a relatively light hearted anime - not a gritty space opera. I have a few vivid memories of the above episode above and there was a scene where it does a dummies explanation with a picture of a magnet with two negative (-) (-) signs to explain why the head and body couldn't attach. There may have been another episode where the "baddy" used a magnet to reverse the polarity (negative negative) between the robot body and plane/head and they couldn't attach. If youre searching for parts, upgrades or add-ons weve got you.
Vaguely, I remember there was an episode where the pilot was ill and couldn't get to the plane. TFSource is the best place for 3rd Party Transformers collectible toys and figures. The plane is the robot head and attaches "backwards" and "turns" to complete the transformation. Specifically the robot head does not come up through the body. The pilot (white uniform) would typically fly the plane to fight the bad guys then there would be a scene where the plane attaches to the robot body "backwards" and then "turns around" to be become the robot head.
Looking for the name of an anime where the robot/mecha was also an airplane.
