More Classic Toku scans

In case anyone might mistake this for one show, these are scans from several different series -- the top's Robot Detective, then there's Kyodain, Zaborger, Jiban, Janperson and Changerion thrown in there for no real reason. Robot Detective always cracked me up with his '40s look disguise over that chunky robot outfit. That couldn't be fun for the stuntguy...
 
I think when he was in his civies, the stunt guy just wore the Robot Detective mask, gloves & boots, and then he sort of magically bulked up for the out-of-clothes fights. He always looked a little slimmer when he had the clothes on, anyway. IIRC there's also two voice actors listed for him in the credits, which is unusual.

I love that show, it is totally insane! It takes a while to find its groove, and the last few episodes weren't all they could be, but the best episodes are in the middle, there's really some seriously good fights there.

Was robot Detective K done by Ishimori ? It reminds me of Kikaider lot specially in the head design.

It most certainly is!

In the Kikaider anime, Kikaider 00 has a "Blow Up" power just like Robot Detective K!
