Okay I will admit, after watching "Space Giants" as a child, I BEGGED my parents for a whistle. Why? To call Goldar, Sylvar or the little boy that turned into a rocket whenever I got into trouble, of course!
This was second only to my love of "Ultra Man" and what I write now, is only from a five year old's memory of watching this on tv in New York. You see they showed different things on Channel 11 before Yankees Baseball in the summer. My father, being a baseball-a-holic was on every Yankees and Mets televised game. For us, the kids, they would show "Thunderbirds", the "super-marionnette" puppets (yikes!!) or this, the wonderful..Space Giants.
I liked this show as a child. They didn't show many installments in America but (Spoilers possible) what this was about was three Giants/Robots that could be called to save the world from impending trouble from (there was ALWAYS trouble!).... as my mom constantly reminded me of when she walked into the room, "Men in rubber suits."
A little boy was given a whistle, if he blew it once, it would call a little boy who looked just like him and could change into a rocket. If the little boy blew the whistle twice it would call a woman in a silver suite, Sylvar, who could kick butt like nobody's business. But if there was REALLY big trouble, he could blow this special whistle three times and in came Goldar, the Giant who would fight all the monsters. Pretty cool. Godzilla had nothing on these guys.
If you can get a few copies of the series from the beginning, it would be better. I saw it dubbed in English. Alot of family fun. Go get a few copies and enjoy!
