As a result of the popularity of these toys in the US, Jim Terry included this series in his Force Five anime lineup under the title of Starvengers.
Some Starvengers episodes were re-dubbed and released by FB Productions under the Robo Formers title.
In the UK, Starvengers episodes were released on video by Krypton Force under the name Formators.
Composed of horned, devil-like alien humanoids and possessing a technology advanced enough to build giant demonic robots, this militaristic organization intends to steal Saotome's Getter Generator to fulfill their own goals of world domination.
Also, with Musashi dead, Dr. Saotome needs a third pilot, which he finds in baseball player Benkei Kuruma.
