Getter Machines
Getter Robo is composed of three jet-like vehicles piloted by one of the three pilots.
Eagle is the red jet, controlled by the pilot of Getter-1.
Jaguar, the white jet, is used by Getter-2's pilot. Getter-3's operator uses
Bear,
the yellow machine. All three are armed with missiles, but are
generally very weak and never used in combat unless absolutely
necessary. They also appear when the pilots use the
Open Get verbal command to break up the current form, so that they can change into another or so they can dodge an enemy's attack.
Getter-1
(Formed from Eagle+Jaguar+Bear)
- Pilot: Ryoma Nagare
- Height: 38 m
- Weight: 220 tons
- Weapons
- Getter Cutter (AKA Getter Razor) - Getter-1 uses the blades on its forearms as slicing weapons.
- Getter Beam - A beam of purple Getter Energy, fired from
Getter-1's stomach. The beam is Getter-1's most powerful weapon, and is
particularly dangerous to enemies who are sensitive to Getter Rays
(which typically includes most Getter villains).
- Spiral Getter Beam (Seen in Getter Robo Armageddon OVA and
video games) - Getter-1 fires its Getter Beam while covered in its
Getter Wing cape, resulting in it spreading and spiraling outwards,
hitting multiple enemies.
- Getter Tomahawk - A gigantic hand axe, and Getter-1's main
melee weapon. The robot can wield two at a time, although it only uses
one in the original series.
- Tomahawk Boomerang - Getter-1 throws the tomahawk. It spins
extremely quickly, cutting through anything it hits like a buzzsaw.
Typically the weapon will curve in mid-air, hitting moving enemies and
returning to the Getter after striking its target.
- Getter Machine Gun (Seen only in the manga, Getter Robo
Armageddon OVA and video games) - Pulling out a pair of machine guns,
Getter-1 sprays the battlefield with bullets.
- Missile Machine Gun (Seen only in the manga and video games) - A big, Gatling gun-type that fires missiles.
Getter-2
(Formed from Jaguar+Bear+Eagle)
- Pilot: Hayato Jin
- Height: 38 m
- Weight: 220 tons
- Weapons
- Getter Arm - Getter-2 can use its claw as a crushing weapon.
- Getter Beams (Seen only in the manga) - Getter-2 can fire a
pair of Getter Beams from its eyes that are capable of hitting
underground targets.
- Getter Drill (AKA Drill Arm) - Getter-2 strikes an enemy with the drill attached to its left arm.
- Drill Missile (AKA Drill Punch, Drill Attack or Jet Drill) -
The drill spins quickly and is launched at an opponent like a rocket.
The aftereffects of the attack vary by series and battle - sometimes the
drill returns to the Getter, sometimes it falls to the ground, and
sometimes it explodes. Losing the drill does not prevent the Getter from
changing forms.
- Drill Storm (AKA Getter Hurricane or Getter Storm) - The
drill spins at extremely high speeds, creating a tornado extending
forward from the tip. Enemies caught in the winds are immobilized.
- Getter Vision - Moving at high-speeds, Getter-2 can create afterimages of itself to confuse opponents.
Getter-3
(Formed from Bear+Eagle+Jaguar)
- Pilot: Musashi Tomoe
- Height: 20 m
- Weight: 220 tons
- Weapons
- Getter Missile - Getter-3 fires a pair of missiles attached to the sides of its head.
- Getter Smash (Seen only in video games) - Getter-3 extends its arms and performs a double punch.
- Getter Crush (Seen only in video games) - Getter-3 does a left-right hook punch combo followed by a double hook punch.
- Ganseki Otoshi (Seen in Episode 10 Kyuukooka! Getter 3 wa yuku) - Getter-3 crushes an enemy by landing on it.
- Daisetsuzan Oroshi - Getter-3 grabs an enemy and uses its
extending arms to spin them above its head, followed by a devastating
throw attack. The technique is based on Musashi's signature judo throw,
which is a modified Hammer Throw.
- Machine Guns (Seen only in Shin Getter Robo: Armageddon OVA) -
In the Armageddon OVA, Getter-3 was armed with machine guns on the tank
part of its body.
