Trivia:

Although "Gettâ robo" (1974), was actually the first heroic combo-robot, Combattler V directly inspired not only similar giant robot anime (_"Hyakujû ô Go-Lion" (1981)_, better known as "Voltron" in the U.S., is actually one of several offshoots of this series), but also the giant robots featured in the Sentai Series (starting with "Batoru Fîbâ Jei" (1979)).
