Robotack is a really interesting show in that it starts out with all these goofy robots playing games with one another (which is what Kabutack was for its whole run) and mutates into what feels like a sillier version of a Heisei Rider battle royale series.

Have any toku fans out there actually watched Kabutack and Robotack? I've seen the former and am watching the latter now and they are both a lot of fun. The designs for Robotack are especially awesome but definitely very kiddy.

The 15th Metal Heroes!

The 2nd B-Fighter team!

B-FIGHTER KABUTO

5 years after the defeat of the Jamahl, the Melzard rises from the deepest sea and plans to destroy humankind!

But this time, there's B-Fighters from other parts of the world who helps to fight the Melzard! Which makes this show one of the coolest.

Heroes from other countries is something always good to watch in action ^^

Oh, yes, action footage was used in Beetleborg Metallix

The 13th Metal Heroes!

BLUE SWAT

This team fights, the Space Mafia. Evil aliens who possess human bodies to infiltrate among Earth people.

This is a team certainly different. The tone, the enemies... but above all else, the team itself. The wear much less technology than the rest of Metal Heroes.

And... i think i've seen one of them in another place...

The 12th Metal Hero!

TOKUSOU ROBO JANPERSON

This is a police robot with a particularity: he fights THREE criminal groups. And is rare he fights a monster-of-the-week. Also, he fights mostly alone.

Which is why i think is worth watching (the rare MotW and the various criminal groups i mean). Isn't very common, you know.

Also, has... i would say trauma, if a robot can have that, caused by his past as a combat prototype.

Btw. must admit i think the show could have had a better ending. With Winspector and Solbrain showing up to support the Exceedraft team, for example.

The 11th Metal Heroes!
The 3rd Rescue Police team!

TOKUSOU EXCEEDRAFT

This time, the team is only humans, no robot and has no apparent connection to the past Rescue Police teams... except at the very end when chief Shunsuke Masaki shows up to help..

Is a good show, but from ep 43 until the end gets REALLY weird with all that demon stuff. And i mean in a scary, sinister way. But you know, for kids!

The 10th Metal Heroes!
The 2nd Rescue Police series!

TOKKYUU SHIREI SOLBRAIN

Solbrain is a man, a woman (both in power armour) and a robot. More focused on rescue than fight crime. Oh, yeah. His commander is again played by Hiroshi Miyauchi!

I find this more fun than Winspector, but would love to have seen more of the Tank Mode of SolDozer

The 9th Metal Heroes!
The 1st Rescue Police series!

TOKKEI WINSPECTOR

1st of the Rescue Police trilogy. A special team of 1 human in power armour and two robots, deals with cases where the normal police isn't enough.

Is an excellent show, a bit different. There's no recurring villain and all the cases deals with human criminals in one form or another.

Oh, yeah. His commander is played by the one and only Hiroshi Miyauchi!

The 8th Metal Hero!

KIDO KEIJI JIBAN

Naoto Tamura, a detective in Central City, is killed by a Bionoid Monster in the line of duty. But he's brought back as the cyborg detective, Jiban.

So, basically, we have a mix of Robocop and Robot Keiji. Which is an awesome mix, in my opinion. And, of course, the Bionoids! So, classic stuff, in a very enjoyable form.

I discovered The Metal Heroes franchise when i started searching info about VR troopers. imagine my reaction when i learned saban did as in Power Rangers, but using with three different shows at the same time!

Shows without more links between them that being part of the same frnachise, btw. But then, something worse happened.

Saban's Masked Rider.

The 7th Metal Hero!

SEKAI NINJA SEN JIRAIYA

Toha, as heir to the Togakure Ryū Ninpō member , must guard a stone tablet with the location of an artifact of untold power called the Pako.

He must fight Dokusai, a fallen Togakure and ninjas from all over the world!

A classic, famous in Brazil, who later returned in a guest apparition in Shuriken Sentai Ninninger.

This show is cool like no other: Ninjas, fallen disciples, and of course, the hero himself!

The 6th Metal Hero!

CHOUJINKI METALDER

Metalder was designed as a top-secret weapon for in the 2nd World War. However, the pacifistic Dr. Koga put Metalder to sleep. But decades later.. evil God Neros (who is a former colleague of Metalder's creator) rises and Metalder wakes up!

So, of course the android fights him and his armies (plural, yes)

ºGood show, and yes, this was another show from which action footage was used in VR Troopers

Yeah, i know, pretty much the same as Gavan, but that's the point and remember: Is a kids show. Also enjoyed by many adults.

My point: Is fun, is entertaining and, of course, is a Space Sheriff!
