Space Runaway Ideon (1980)

In the distant reaches of space, on the secluded colony world known as Solo, the year 2300 heralds an epochal discovery. An intrepid team of human archaeologists unearths a trio of alien vessels that, when unified, metamorphose into the colossal fighting automaton - The Ideon. This extraordinary relic of an ancient civilization is powered by a mysterious force known simply as Ide, an energy source of unfathomable potential. Yet, the inhabitants of Earth are not alone in the cosmos. Their discovery attracts the attention of the formidable Buff Clan, an alien race who assert their ancestral right to the Ide. Their audacious pursuit of this power instigates a volatile game of cosmic cat and mouse, with the Ide becoming an interstellar pawn in this galactic chessboard. A simple spark of fear and mistrust ignites a devastating intergalactic war, as the Buff Clan and the human colonists clash in a battle of wills, with the Ide at the epicenter. As the universe watches with bated breath, the fate of all existence hangs in the balance. Can the humans withstand the relentless Buff Clan and protect the Ide, or will they succumb, putting the universe's destiny in peril? "Space Runaway Ideon" is a riveting journey through the cosmos, where ancient secrets collide with futuristic warfare, and the price of power could cost the very fabric of the universe.
