Cute video
This came up on a Gatch facebook page, and I thought it was cute enough to share here!
I only wish it was subbed to understand what the kids are singing, but I enjoyed it nontheless, hope you guys do too.

Maybe our resident Spanish speaker can translate.
Pretty sure it's the theme song for that version of the show.

This has been a staple at our GatchaCon/Comic-Con viewing parties for years - and it never fails to entertain!
I subtitled the lyrics as:
-----------------
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
They’re five youngsters and robots
Whose mission is to protect
The Earth from attacks
By beings from other galaxies
The five youngsters of great courage
Are a force of superior power
They’re inseparable, they’re invincible
They’re Commando G
Mutation!
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
Tiny, Keyop, Jason, Mark and
Princess fight
With courage on the Phoenix
To win the battle
Tiny, Keyop, Jason, Mark and
Princess fight
With courage on the Phoenix
To win the battle
They’re five youngsters and robots
Whose mission is to protect
The Earth from attacks
By beings from other galaxies
The five youngsters of great courage
Are a force of superior power
They’re inseparable, they’re invincible
They’re Commando G
Mutation!
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
Commando G
Commando G
Always on alert
Tiny, Keyop, Jason, Mark and
Princess fight
With courage on the Phoenix
To win the battle
Tiny, Keyop, Jason, Mark and
Princess fight
With courage on the Phoenix
To win the battle
------------------
I suppose they could be tightened up, but that's the general idea. It's very similar to what was being said in the English opening credits. There's not a lot of lyrical depth going on. "Mutation (or 'Mutacion')" was their word for "Transmute."

Oh thank you Jason. I wasn't expecting really complex lyrics, due to their apparent ages, and those really seem to work.

Their Battle-themed records came out in 1979-1981 (with countless reissues in following years).
I agree, I love the uniforms, too. I would have been in heaven with one of those as a kid. They used them in the video and possibly in some live appearances. They were advertised wearing them for appearances at various circuses. If anyone is on here from Spain and has any concert shots of them in the uniforms, I'd love to see them!
Heh, I'm giving away a "secret" link here, but since we're talking about them, here is a candid shot of them in the uniforms - perhaps backstage at a concert or during the filming of the video:
