These are the kiddie TV ones with the robot additions ....but let`s face it, these are the one`s that everybody remembers and goes gooey over in a nostalgic way. The original 1973 Gatchaman / G-Force Japanesey ones are supposed to be infinitely superior, but who saw those?! ;)

There are quite a few Gatchaman sites out there, and occasionally DvDs from Hong Kong for around £20 a season - depending on bidding.
English subtitles on the versions, usually 3-4 discs per 35 episode season. Be careful as some versions exist, like 1-30,31-70 and 71-105 and another split for 35 episodes so be careful. It is playable as region 0 in my epxerience.
Having watched many of the episodes, I can thoroughly recommend Gatchaman, there are occasionally light issues with the recording (i.e. it does get dark), but the storylines and action make it poles apart from BOTP. Just get used to the names, like the Demon Gang and Bert Kalse (aka Zoltar).
There is Gatchaman 2 in existence, but no English translation apparently.
And for those who want to watch it as a movie, the 90s remake Gatchaman OVA. Available in region 1 from usual stockists - 3 parts telling the whole story. Again, as Mike Read would say ter-rifffff-ic
