Can anyone tell me the origins of this? before Power Rangers, Transformers, maybe even Voltron. Someone came up with the idea of 5 robots combining to form one. don't go randomly searching Google, you might wind up on some hinky anime websites, but if anynone knows, please reply.

Well, it might have been Gundam...

I know they like the number of main Gundams to be 5, at least in G, Wing, and SEED.

A little side trivia... anyone who the first live action program EVER to have a "Giant Robot"... just one, not five joining... but before Power Rangers and the other Sentai programs.

The answer may surprise and shock you, because it really makes no sense.
