I don't know how many of you know the original Japanese cartoon series which was a big hit in Italy and France in the '70s, however a team of fans is making an unofficial prequel with real actors and computer graphics:

I know the name, and some of the toys, but have never seen the show. Good luck to them.

Live action Transformers. Someone should do that.

This is the Anime Police! You are in violation of an original Japanese series title... er... violation! Come out with your Jumbo Machinder held up!

UFO Robo Grendizer is the original, Japanese, series title. Grandizer is the US version. And, it would seem, in Italy they decided to name the series like it was a tobacco product.
