With a name like Jet Jaguar, you might expect something that looks vaguely like one of the Voltron lions, but with spots.

He’s actually a sentient humanoid robot with a rather unsettling toothy grin welded across his mug. He can fly, as his namesake would suggest, and also increase his size by a factor of fifty because of reasons unknown.

The best part about Jet Jaguar is his off-screen origin. A drawing of him was selected as the winner of a contest that Toho held in 1972 in which fans could submit ideas for a new hero. The original name given by the fan-artist who created him was “Red Alone". There’s a lot to unpack there.
