DAI-X from STAR FLEET aka X-BOMBER!
It’s Star Wars meets Thunderbirds meets Getter Robo; or what if Star Wars had a giant robot!!
In the future of 2999, the galaxy is at war with the alien invaders of the Imperial Alliance, who, led by the terrifying Imperial Master, seek to conquer the universe by obtaining the mysterious power known as F-Zero-1. (Not the Space Race F-Zero)
The galaxy’s only hope, the brave unlikely crew of the powerful starship: X-Bomber and its three transforming ships; which, when the going gets tough, combine together to form the mighty super robot Dai-X!
- A lesser known and very ambitious live-action tokusatsu series by Mazinger Z creator Go Nagai, but one that’s gone on to become cult-classic (especially in the UK) for its impressive visuals, model work, action, and the dubbed version’s iconic Starfleet theme song by Brian May!
Oh and Happy May the 4th!

MechaMarch2025 X-Bomber/Star Fleet
I always feel like I need a curve ball of some kind with Mecha March. Here it is for this last part of Mecha March, a mecha puppet series from the mind of Go Nagai. If you don’t know who that is, which would be frustrating, look him up. But yeah, this series is called X-Bomber in Japan but had a special place from people in the UK under the title of Star Fleet. Clearly, the UK series Thunderbirds…
