Need help identifying an anime

I remember seeing it about 12-13 years ago. All I really remember is that it had a teenage guy who had a yellow speeder type bike that could fly in space, and he hung out with a pirate looking guy with a beard and pointy ears. It was really good, and it's been driving me nuts because I want to buy it!

Then it is indeed "Lensman":

"SF Shinseiki Lensman was released in Japan in 1984. Lensman: Kozûmosu no daisensô , a TV series, followed it from 1987-1989. Carl Macek's company, Streamline Pictures, dubbed the movie into English and released in America as Lensman in 1991."

Ding Ding that is the correct answer. It was remastered and released on dvd by ADV in 2003 under it's original name 'Birth : A War of Two Worlds'. It's a fantastic anime, a real visual treat that every 80's fan should see.

Before that it was released on VHS back in the early 90's by streamline and they renamed it to Planet Busters .

Here is the cover art:

I'm also searching for an old forgotten anime.

It's from like about 1984 and it's about a boy with some kind of robot that likes to eat banana's

to get superstrenght or something. The robot looks like a square tin can silver and read with small arms and legs.

Hmmm, this is a little harder to identify.

Do you have anymore details that you could share?
