Robot Detective (ロボット刑事 - Robotto Keiji) is a tokusatsu superhero TV series. Created by Shotaro Ishinomori, the series was produced by Toei Company Ltd., and broadcast on Fuji TV from April 5 to September 27, 1973, with a total of 26 episodes.

The hero of this series is a robot named "Robot Detective K" (or just "K"), who has no human form, but when not in battle, actually dresses up in human clothes and has a human-like personality! K is also a possible inspiration for RoboCop, and is similar to the manga/anime superhero, 8 Man.
