Star Fleet (Part 1)


Here's an absolute treat: Star Fleet aka X-Bomber - one of the all-time 80s classics. A brilliant marionette tokusatsu sci-fi tv series created by manga/anime legend Go Nagai and a total must-own for fans of classic kids tv. If these are popular enough, I'll put the rest up!

The plot: The year is 2999 and the Earth is at peace following the Space Wars. The tranquility of the human race is ensured by Earth Defense Force (EDF). Shortly before the turn of the fourth millennium the peace is broken by the appearance of a gigantic alien battle cruiser. Powerless to defend itself, the EDF's Pluto base is completely destroyed and the evil Commander Makara reveals the same fate awaits the Earth unless the mysterious F-Zero-One is handed over to her. Oblivious to the existence of F-Zero-One, and fearful of Makara's terrible retribution, the EDF presses into action a new and untested weapon, the X-Project from its hidden moon-base. The series then follows the adventures of the crew of the X-Bomber as they discover the nature of the F-Zero-One and try to protect it from the increasingly desperate and unstable Makara and her demanding overlord, the 'Imperial Master'.

Interesting trivia: Garrick Hogan - who supplies the voice for the Captain - also appeared in the original Star Wars, Tim Burton's Batman and an episode of Return of the Saint !
