About Test Pattern Guy
Expertise
I`m a pop culture freak who loves TV, old and new... ask me about classic TV, new TV, commercials, jingles, cartoons, Saturday morning shows, you name it. If I don`t know it, I can find it out... Believe it or not, I even know some of the infomercials by heart.. "Set it and forget it!"

Experience
Lots of time reading the TV Guide, and way too many nights of insomnia...

Television Trivia - Live-action Japanese Robot show


Expert: Test Pattern Guy - 9/14/2006

Question
Hi, I'm trying to find out the name of a live-action 60's era Japanese show that I watched as a kid. It had a kid that could call on a giant robot (this was NOT Ultraman, at least not the familiar one). The robot looked like a silver metallic Egyptian Pharaoh, with a Pharoahs' headdress. The kid could fly around with a jet-pack or something, and wore a white suit and helmet. The white suit had some kind of red emblem on it. The giant robots' fingers were missiles, and I believe the robot also flew by virtue of jets or rockets in his back. I've asked friends over the years if they ever saw this show, and they usually say "oh, wasn't that Ultraman?", but it wasn't! Thanks!

Answer
Hi, T...

I think you're looking for a show that had the American title of "Space Giants." Were there three robots or just the one? Let me know... if not, we'll find it... I can tell you, though, it definitely is NOT Ultraman... I was and still am a die-hard Ultraman fan...

Let me know!
