Combattler V 2012

I love it when I discover new anime, especially new takes on old classics.  My favorites of course are the super robot series, especially those from the Toei animation, the same creators of Dairugger XV, Albegas, and King of Beasts Golion.  But there is one that I wish I had seen as a kid... it's gotten a sleek reboot in the last year or so.... a predecessor to those tapped for the Voltron universe.... Combattler V.  From the still below, you can see it's got a similar 5-member team format to Golion, Gatchaman, and so many others... it's like another flavor of your favorite ice cream :-)

I won't waste much time writing about these clips since I don't know much more about the series other than what I'm saying here, except that I find these to be visually intriguing.  Makes me wish that the ones behind the new Voltron Force series would sit up and pay attention.  It also makes me wish I had gone to animation school in Japan, but that's another story altogether!  So sit back and enjoy these...
