Polymars

Polymars, also spelled Polimars, are the mechanical cyborg suits of armor used in the *Hurricane Polymar* franchise. While the titular Hurricane Polymar appears in every entry consisting of the 1974 anime series, the 1996 two episode OVA Holy Blood, and the 2017 live action movie the others listed solely appear in the live action movie. All Polymars have their entire suits retracted into their helmet when not in use.

## Hurricane Polymar

The titular Polymar of the franchise, this one used by martial arts detective Takeshi Onigahara (Takeshi Yoroi in the live actin movie) and was colored red and white. In the anime incarnations it was constructed by Dr. Olegar Sutter with the idea of overcoming various environments while in the live action movie it was designed as a weapon by the Self Defense Force. Using six microcapsules and the high molecular weight compound that composes the suit it can transform into five different vehicles, be used to enhance strength such as jumping capabilities and punching through steel, move fast enough to spawn whirlwinds, and grant a high resistance to projectiles. However, as it is powered by magnetism it is highly sensitivee to high voltage electricity and temperatures below fifty degrees Celsius. In the original series Takeshi had to change back within forty six minutes of usage or he would die of hyperthermia via skin suffocation.
