<p>You're probably looking for <strong>Getter Robo G</strong>. There's several TV series and movies based on this iteration of Getter. The movies are all cross-overs with other Go Nagai mecha franchises.</p>

<p>Bugging me for years. I saw an anime in the early 80's (I assume it was from around then, since I watched it on a VHS tape) that featured a war between a group of pilots, maybe 3 or 4, that could join into 1 giant robot. This robot had a red head with red spikes kind of like the Statue of Liberty. The bad guys had giant robots that could join together too to form 1 giant super robot, and there were maybe 6 of them. </p>

<p>I think it was feature length but possibly several episodes of a series put together. Also it seemed to me to not be childish. It wasn't adult but PG-ish. I recall it being sort of dark and sinister and violent. Please help me. Oh, and it wasn't Voltron or anything obvious like that.</p>
