It was also the final series to be produced by company founder Tatsuo Yoshida prior to his death.

A remake of Yatterman aired on NTV and Yomiuri TV from January 14, 2008 through September 27, 2009, with the original voice actors for the Doronbo gang.

Unlike previous series in the Time Bokan franchise, Yatterman does not cover any specific time/space travel.

The shape and function of their mechas is fully dependent on the theme of the scam they are running at the beginning of each episode.

The villains' machines are often seen packing a lot of weaponry and usually temporarily defeat Yatterman mechas at the beginning of each fight.

The ending themes in order are "diverge" by mihimaru GT, "Total Eclipse" (皆既日蝕, Kaiki Shitsushoku) by Juleps, "Like Love Song" (恋想曲, Rensōkyoku) by Manami Kurose, "Now" (今, Ima) by ET-KING, "Give Me Up" by Nami Tamaki, "I Win!"

The series takes place several years in the future and follows the descendants of the Doronbo Gang as they fight against the Yattermen, who have become corrupt.

NEW Yatterman: Nandai Kandai Yajirobe (NEWヤッターマン 難題かんだいヤジロベエ) was released for Super Famicom on March 22, 1996.

An updated version, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars, released internationally in 2010, adds Yatterman-2 as a playable character.
