JOHNNY SOKKO AND HIS FLYING ROBOT IS THE AMERICAN DUB OF THE 1967-68 TOEI TOKUSATSU SERIES, GIANT ROBO. HERE'S A LITTLE BACKGROUND INFO FROM THE INTERNET ABOUT THE SHOW:

Giant Robo (ジャイアントロボ, Jaianto Robo), also known as Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot in the United States,[1] is a manga and tokusatsu series created by Mitsuteru Yokoyama. It is similar to Yokoyama's Tetsujin 28-go (known as Gigantor in the U.S.), but Giant Robo has more elements of fantasy. The original 26-episode tokusatsu TV series, produced by Toei Company, aired on NET (later renamed TV Asahi) from October 11, 1967 to April 1, 1968.

PLOT: Earth is invaded by an interstellar terrorist group, Big Fire (the Gargoyle Gang in the American version), led by Emperor Guillotine. Guillotine spends most of his time in a multicolored space ship hidden at the bottom of Earth's ocean, from which he issues his orders. The group has been capturing scientists to create an army of monsters to help them conquer Earth. A boy named Daisaku Kusama (Johnny Sokko in the American version) and a young Unicorn peacekeeping agent named Jūrō Minami (Jerry Mano in the American version) are shipwrecked on an island after their ship is attacked by the sea monster Dakolar and subsequently captured by Big Fire. They flee onto an elevator leading to a complex where a Pharaoh-like giant robot is being built by captive scientist Lucius Guardian, who gives Daisaku and Jūrō its control device. Guardian helps them escape before he is shot to death; before he dies, he triggers an atomic bomb which destroys the base. The radiation activates the robot, which now obeys only Daisaku. The boy is invited by Jūrō and his chief, Azuma, to join Unicorn and fight Big Fire with Giant Robo.

The English-dubbed American version of the series directed by Reuben Guberman, was produced by American International Television. It was first broadcast in the United States in 1969 by AIP-TV and was in syndication through the early 1980s. It also aired during the early 1970s through the 1990s in Australia, the United Kingdom, Brazil, India, and various Southeast Asian and Latin American countries.

NOTE: THIS ITEM WILL REQUIRE SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION WHEN RECEIVED. PLEASE DO NOT BID IF THIS IS A PROBLEM.

CONDITION: This print is in very nice shape with some exceptions. The color has obviously faded to pinkish, and it could probably use some cleaning. This print is in very nice shape with some exceptions. The color has obviously faded to pinkish, and it could probably use some cleaning. I would say there is SLIGHTLY more color and less red than my pictures show, but I don't want to get hopes too high. I have not watched both reels all the way through before putting this up, but from what I saw, there seems to be no major lines or wear with the exception of specks and dings. But to be on the safe side, expect a few occasional light lines and splices. If you notice an area in the frame that looks a bit brighter, that is not the print, but due to the screen I was using. The sound on this print is great, but does not kick in until about five seconds into the print, right about where the AIP logo appears. Comes on two reels. I did not detect any smell on these reels, except that of old film, but I am no expert. Please inspect my pictures carefully for a better idea of this print's condition.I have not watched both reels all the way through before putting this up, but from what I saw, there seems to be no major lines or wear with the exception of some specks and dings.
