Product Description:
The perfect addition to any sci-fi fan's collection, this box set compiles several cult-favorite films and television episodes from around the world.
ATTACK FROM SPACE: Based on episodes of the Japanese television series SUPER GIANT, this film combines the excitement of a traditional superhero story with classic Japanese kaiju ("giant monster") film action. When alien invaders pose a threat to Earth, only Starman can save humanity. Sent to Earth from the allied planet Emerald, Starman uncovers a conspiracy among scientists that requires him to search out those who betrayed the planet before an all-out war begins.
THE DAY THE SKY EXPLODED: An Italian/French production in which a rocket collides with the sun and sends a shower of deadly asteroids over Earth.
THE PHANTOM PLANET: A 1960s B-movie set in a futuristic vision of 1980. It's "Gulliver's Travels" in space as an astronaut lands on an asteroid populated by 6-inch tall humanoids and must help them ward off their monster attackers.
VOYAGE TO THE PLANET OF PREHISTORIC WOMEN: Mamie Van Doren is the clamshell-clad queen of alien cave girls who greet a crew of tongue-dragging astronauts very happy to see her after their long journey.
WARNING FROM SPACE: Starfish-like space aliens hurl toward the planet Earth to warn of imminent global disaster in this Japanese film.
ROCKY JONES, SPACE RANGER- BEYOND THE MOON: The debut episode of the children's sci-fi show ROCKY JONES, SPACE RANGER, reedited into a feature-length film. Airing between 1953 and 1955, the show followed the adventures of its title character as he defended the forces of good against all manner of evildoers.

I was quite impressed when I received my BOX SET with ROBOT (I ordered all 3). Admittedly, I already had a couple of the movies (I'll give 'em to friends), but it looked neat. Must say, I was impressed -- the toy robots are worth the price of admission all by themselves. I used to have a bunch of these when I was a kid, and it was neat to see them again. Nice storage box, good graphics. Robot even includes one of those little keys to make it walk around. How fun! All-around, very pleased with my purchase. Thanks, Alpha!
