Golden Warrior Gold Lightan

The story of the anime was basically that a young boy named Hiro found a golden zippo lighter. This lighter was actually the giant Golden Warrior Gold Lightan whose mission was to save the earth from the invasion of King Ibalda and his evil forces. Gold Lightan joined forces with his fellow robot teammates to ruin the plots of King Ibalda and destroyed all of the invading alien robots by using his surpassing hands and leg strikes.

Hiro the boy who found gold lightan, created a group of kids called the “One Pack Rangers” which was responsible for saving the earth. If you couldn’t tell, this anime was aimed at getting young kids to start smoking cigarettes. Way to go Japan!

Gold Lightan is a giant character who takes up two character slots and is rather slow while he fights. However, he packs quite a punch and takes a lot of damage before he can be put down.

  1. Wow, so I DO know characters of this game! Battle of the Planets and Crazy Genie, as they’re known down here in Brazil.

  2. WHAAT?! They include these I’ve never heard of but leave out several that CAN fight easily without much help. The Samurai Pizza Cats would like a word with you Tatsunoko…

  3. Wow!!!! Thanks for the post Infendo. I’m a huge Street Fighter fan and love the Capcom Vs. series games. I will be getting this game and my only wish was that I knew more about the Tatsunoko characters. So to whoever wrote this one, You are mega dragon punch awesome!!!!!!

  4. Zachs, afraid it’s not that simple. Kyatto Ninden Teyandee was a joint effort, and the licensing for it is a mess, it was sadly never going to happen, same deal with Macross.

  5. Amazingly, licensing issues have actually worked in /my/ favor here as well, as I hate that Genie with the fury of a thousand Foreman grills and he’s been axed for local release, hurrah!

    Also thanks infendo, there were a couple here I wasn’t familiar with (polymar, yatterman & karas).

  6. Whoa! Great post, Will. I know stuff now.

  7. great post you filled in the gaps of the unknown characters for me. all i have to say though is i will never switch from karas if he moves like in the movie how can he be beat??? well maybe the golden zippo guy too

  9. Do they have the same guy singing all the intros or what?
