• Spectreman – The bad guys were talking apes.  One of them had blonde hair.
  • Starblazers – How cool was the space battleship Yamato anyway?  Plus, all of the characters had groovy 70′s hair and were impossibly thin.
  • Space Giants – A family of robots:  Goldar, Silvar, and Gam.  Silvar was one lucky lady, I guess.  And who didn’t want a friend who could turn into a rocket?
  • Ultraman – This show was better than Spectreman.  The robot guy was cooler looking and the storyline was less hokey than the other show.
  • Macross/Robotech – The king of space opera anime.
