i personally like the getter robot anime and design specially when ryoma shout GETTA BEEEEEAM!
i like how he does it and the combining getters are kinda cool to watch.
i always play the getter team on super robot wars games. i like the theme song and all that shouting. OPEN GET!

I don't know if this helps.... but if they would call this robot Marvin who only picks flowers in the OVA... I'd still buy it! the design just got me somehow. and by now I only saw Getter Robo Armageddon really, and I love it

if you're going for the more recent shows. Deffinitely check out Shin getter 2004. The story line is a bit more clearer and the animation is really wicked. Although I find the new getter shows theme song suck compared to the original.

thanks for the tip Kidchuckle, I will keep an eye out for it. I'm just starting to pick up on the animated side of chogokin, so I always appreciate a good recommendation.

OPEN GET! You said it Boyet!! My personal favorite aspect of the getter series, particularly Armageddon, is all the damn screaming. I have never seen a more intense robot series. And the screaming makes the biggest difference. Way to call it bro ;D Erik

I'm just starting to pick up on the animated side of chogokin, so I always appreciate a good recommendation. hey no probs toystarr.. umm if you want a sample of the new show.. here's a music video with a few clips this anime is dark. YOu'll notice the difference in the first 5 mins of the first episode of what you're in for. I really appreciate the time they took to get that black inky style, and fast action lines.. it's a nice blend of the old and new. Treat it as a new alternate universe or retelling.. its not quite the same origin story as the original..

i should really check these shows out one of these days...I've got 14 die cast getters and a custom jumbo, and have never seen a second of the show.
from a staight design standpoint, they are by far the most appealing robots...for me at least.

golly! yes, that's what I am looking for. thanks Kidchuckle! I somehow forgot the easy way to find anime samples in youtube. guess I'm getting old, or something but I sure like the Getters; and there is still a myriad of anime to discover for me, guess that is one reason I stay young (at heart )

usually I check youtube or bestanime website to see a sample of snip it of the show. Usually helps. Intros, can give you a false idea of what the show might be like sometimes. But I find usually the fan videos or clips a pretty good idea what the flavour of the show might be like.

Getter was the first, and perhaps the ONLY super-robot with a cape... just as folks in the Western Hemisphere were fascinated with Superman, again- kids goin GaGa over the cape thing... ...The cape symbolizes "Heroism".
That, coupled with the fact that of all the super-robots of that time- Getter had bright colors, which made him easy on the eyes. This color-scheme stood Getter out from the rest of the 'typical' super-robot armor color-scheme combinations of black/blue/red mingled with white limbs-- thus breathing new life into the super-robot trend of that era... it couldn't happen in more perfect timing; viewers were glued to their tv sets, expecting more vibrant heroic colors from then on... ...at last, a super-robot that didn't have any black nor blue armored bodyparts!
Another thing that set Getter apart from the rest, besides his changeabilities: His physical weapons, those brutaly-looking Tomahawk axes.... ...most of the other super-robots had either swords or pectoral lasercanons, at the time. Getter came out like a bat outta hell, SCALPIN' his opponents left and right, just Hackin them mofos to shreds! I'd say That inspired the movie "The Shining" ! <LOL>
While other super-robots had either "grill" mouths or "humanoid" faces, Getter had a unique face... like some kinda nucleaonic gremlin reject from a fallout blast. That face made Getter look more robotic than any other.
Yep, ya heard this from a Mazin fan! *^__^*
