Sherlock Holmespun

[Toshio]

That character was played by Rainbow Parakeet in the 1980 series while another character took the role in both mangá and anime.
And a similar character appeared in Jetter Mars.

Sherlock Holmespun is despicted as a cyborg whose only living part is the head, in the episode's conclusion he is shot in the head and becomes a full robot.

However, there is a problem, when the head is destroyed then he'll die, so it was pointless for them making a robot head for him.

The lack of logic was odd back then, huh?

Heh, funny is that he died and a robot head was made.
They should just have buried his remains instead of making a robot replacement.
