A tv show devoted to Megaloman aired on Japanese TV in 1979.

Look at his long white hair.
Is he a yeti underneath that suit and mask?
Uh, probably not.


Megaloman has a similar origin story to Superman's. He is also known as Honô No Senshi, or Warrior of Flame, because he can fling fire out of his hair.

Trivia on Wikipedia is interesting:
"Megaloman has gained popularity on the Internet because of his long-hair (unconventional among sentai armored super-heroes) and especially because his name sounds like 'megalomaniac'. This was most obvious among French-speakers, as French for megalomaniac is 'mégalomane' which pronounces almost exactly like 'Megaloman'."

Above is a fan in a dress-up disguise.

MEGALOMAN, WE LOVE YOU!
We can't get enough of you. We are Megalomaniacs.

Interesting cast of characters on that show!
The fan looks like a creepy guy with explosives attached to his vest!
No offense to the gentleman as a person, but if I saw him on the street dressed that way, I would turn tail and run.
