Which Ninja Team Vehicle Is Your Favorite?

Hi all!

The members of the Science Ninja Team have always driven some pretty cool vehicles, but which one stands out for you as the best of the best? Do you love Jinpei's Helicobuggy from Gatchaman? Or is it Joe's Condor Attacker from Gatchaman II that you wish you had in your driveway? Or it is the sight of Gatchaman Fighter's Gatcha Spartan slicing through Iron Beasts that makes it stand out from the rest? Which one do you think it the greatest of their mecha, and what makes it so special?

This question is practically impossible to answer!

As a kid I think the vehicles were a big part of why I was so attracted to BOTP. 4 transforming vehicles that all fitted into a fifth, each with their own specific characteristics.

The God Phoenix definitely gets my vote over the New God Phoenix or Gatchaspartan as best ship, but I think part of that is because the other 4 vehicles in that series have the transformative ability.

If I was forced to choose one favourite I would choose the (Gatchaman/BOTP) G2 - in both forms. As a kid (and a motor racing fan) this was part of the reason I liked Jason/Joe so much. It's a race car in both forms and it transforms, and it's the vehicle I most identified with - I wasn't a fan of motorbikes or planes, and I never really knew what the G4 was in terms of 'real life machinery'.

The God Phoenix is probably my favorite. For the individual vehicles, I'd say the G-1.

Well, since the Mach 5 pretty much ruined me for any other cars (animated, real or otherwise!), I'd say Ken's G-1 fighter as individual and the first Godphoenix for the team!
