	GIGANTOR-Fred Ladd's Official Gigantor Web Site
		Ladd re-named the robot "Gigantor"; the 12-year old boy who controlled the robot became "Jimmy Sparks"; Jimmy's guardian and mentor, Dr. Shikishima, emerged as "Doctor Bob Brilliant"; and the robot's mission became a crusade against crime.
		A theme song, "Gigantor!" was composed for the fifty-two programs, and "Gigantor," the series, became a reality in 1964, appearing throughout the late 1960s on television stations in the U.S.A. and abroad.

	HENSHIN!ONLINE: FLASHBACK!
		GIGANTOR was one of a handful of Japanese TV cartoon series that were "Americanized" in the mid-1960s.
		GIGANTOR (Tetsujin Ninjuhachi-go, or "Ironman No.28" in Japan) was the creation of comic-book artist Mitsuteru Yokoyama (born June 18, 1934).
		As a result, GIGANTOR was changed to such an extent that Ladd feels that it cannot accurately be called a translation of the Japanese episodes.

	Gigantor Part 1 DVD Review. DVD VISION JAPAN (DVD VISION)
		While I enjoyed Gigantor, watching it in one sitting is not a wise idea.
		The other reason is that a 12 year old boy is flying a jet and controlling Gigantor at the same time.
		Gigantor is truly the seed of our anime past and it should be the very first volume of your anime collection.

	Absolute Anime / Gigantor
		The animation was through TCJ (Television Corporation of Japan- now extinct) and the English version was produced by Fred Ladd and Al Singer through Delphi Associates inc. Peter Fernandez wrote the English lip sync scripts for at least half of the episodes and was paid $100 to $125 per episode.
		Those episodes contained some material unflattering to the West, and some bad animation; the new studio, with new animators, felt their early efforts were not world-class....so our shows began with episode 27 and continued in sequence (as far as we knew) for the next 52 shows.
		In this episode Gigantor looses an arm and a leg for the first and last time, and Gigantor actually has to be repaired.

	Entercolor Technologies Corporation v Gigantor Software Development, Inc. - Case No. 93635

		The Complainant is the owner of a federal trademark for GIGANTOR and the series GIGANTOR is protected by a federal copyright.
		While its likely that the Respondent knew of the name GIGANTOR from the Complainant's character, that is insufficient under the ICANN policy to order a transfer of a domain name.

	GIGANTOR (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The first flight for the GIGANTOR is to take place on MAY 7 the 2004 at the MoTIS X ROW design factory and the event will start the MoTIS real time flight data gathering missions conducted by our test pilots.
		The GIGANTOR is the MoTIS answer to an aircraft design that will not function in the super sonic design market but to meet the needs of an ultra coplex emerging mass passenger transport market.
		Linda and Luke are finishing the total per flight on the GIGANTOR and as this aircraft is so huge in scope the average preflight will take a pilot well over 1 hr to complete.

	GIGANTOR
		GIGANTOR's greatest success is with its target audience of small children, fulfilling the fantasy of commanding a powerful genii friend to fight evil.
		And while TV heroes like Superman used their power of flight for transportation and spent most fight scenes standing around bending gun barrels, the missile-shaped Gigantor could often be seen in aerial combat, his rocket jets sending him smashing through buildings, planes and enemy robots in a very satisfying way.
		The whole thing is held in a plastic slipcase with transparent cut-out sections revealing some of the inner artwork they're just beautiful packages, and though one wishes that Rhino had had access to some original Japanese material to include in the sets, they still contain some nice extras.

		The original “Gigantor” anime series ran for approximately 56 episodes and was shot on fl and white 16mm film.
		Through the way the characters speak about “Gigantor” to his large human like eyes and pointy nose, the viewer is meant to understand and empathize with “Gigantor” as a hero and not think about questions like, “why would a robot need a nose?” Mr.

	"Gigantor" (1964) - IMDb user comments (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Unlike the scenario of the version dubbed for U.S. market, Gigantor was meant to be a war machine developed to win the war for the Japanese (WW II that is), so it's a 20th century creation.
		Yokoyama himself didn't think the comic was going to be such a big hit, and his original idea was that after Gigantor fights his first battle, it would be deemed too dangerous to keep around and would be smelted back to metal.
		I used to rush home from first grade to catch Gigantor at 3, followed by Kimba the White Lion at 3:30, hoping that the bus driver wouldn't be out of root beer lollipops that day.
