As you can see, it is tougher than Mazinger, but not SO tougher.

This is both impressive and long-due!

Regarding the following:

* roll 1d10 on the [diz] hit location table, or hit the saucer if the dizer is out of the spazer

shouldn't you be rolling instead something like 1d8+12 (melee) or 1d5+15 (missile), so that you can only hit the head and the arms, since those are the only parts of the robot that are not inside the saucer?
