Sorry to disappoint you guys, but no, that's Goldar from the
Space Giants. He also has some beam that he shoots out of the antennae.
This one has Goldar's wife, Silvar, on the left with their human/robot kid Gam on the right. All three turn into rocket ships to fight bad guys.
I think I was 5 when these guys were on TV.

Question: If the kid was human/robot and they were full robot...doesn't that mean that one of the kid's actual parents had to be a human?

If my memory serves me correctly . . . Goldar and Silvar brought to Earth by this guy, Mathusem:
They were to fight the evil forces of Rodak:
While on Earth they ran into Tom and Miko. Goldar and Silvar asked Mathusem to create a robotic child for them to make a family. I'm not sure about either the biology or the science, but Mathusem used Miko as the model for Gam (only Miko never had foot-long antennae sticking out of his head).
That's Tom on the left, Miko in the middle and Gam on the right.

Here's a website that shows the battle wherein the three super robots Great Mazinger, Getta Robot, and Grendaizer joined forces to defeat one humongous sea monster.

I used to watch a show with a similar robot called [url="http://www.angelfire.com/sc/enforcer/"]Tranzor Z[/url]. Then came a bunch of cartoons I watched religiously until they quit showing them: Voltron, G.I. Joe, the Transformers, the Silverhawks, the Tigercats, and finally Robotech: Macross, Southern Cross, and Mospoeda (Invid Invasion). After Robotech, they stopped showing cartoons in my hometown, so I quit watching them.

@HLD : Tranzor Z was an anime called Mazinger Z, which got several continuance anime like Great Mazinger and Grandeizer. You can relive those moments by reading it on my anime thread. threadAs for Tigercats, I think it's called Thundercats

Yeah, in the Philippines back in the 70's...
...we knew it as Mazinger Z... (you just gotta love Aphrodie A's lone form of weaponry
)...
...I recall Great Mazinger, teaming up with Getta Robot and Grendaizer against some gigantic aqua-robot-monster.
