X Bomber (Xボンバー x bonba^), better known in English speaking countries as Star Fleet, is a live-action series created by Go Nagai. It is better described as Star Wars ala Jerry Anderson, as this is a a cross between Getter Robo and Star Wars made with puppets as the stars. While not particulary successful in Japan, it was a big hit in the land of King Arthur, where it mangaed to have an English version's theme song composed by Paul Bliss of The Moody Blues, and said them was later covered by Queen member Brian May and Van Halen guitarist Eddie Van Halen, released under the name of the Star Fleet Project. In March of 2019 (Around when Blade Runner 1 happened) Discotek Media got it rereleased. Good! Love some Go Nagai and Team America cr-p.
