Does anyone remember this 1960's animated show about animals, I know one was a rabbit and they came from outerspace and their spaceship was shaped like a wheel.

I know I saw this as a kid, but can't remember much more.

..I certainly remember "THE AMAZING 3". It was adapted from the original Japanese anime series "WONDER 3" {1965-'66}, and was created by Dr. Osamu Tezuka, the "father" of modern "Japanimation" and anime art [he also created, wrote and drew what we know as "ASTRO BOY" and "KIMBA THE WHITE LION" , which also became TV shows as well!!]. The American version was dubbed by Erika Productions (I believe Fred Ladd may have had a hand in the adaptation as well) and originally released in the fall of 1967. There were 52 episodes in all, in glorious black & white.

The plot had to do with three aliens who were on a secret mission to see if our world should be destroyed or not. They disguised themselves as "ordinary animals": a horse, a duck and a (very sexy-looking) rabbit, and took an Earth boy named "Kenny Carter" into their confidence. He helped them become acquainted with Earth customs and foibles, and righted a few wrongs along the way. Kenny's older brother "Randy" was a government agent...and eventually, he found out about the aliens' true identities in the final episode....but I won't spoil the outcome, should you see the entire series.

Unfortunately, "THE AMAZING 3" has been out of circulation for years (being in black & white didn't help future syndication prospects in the early '70s), and only a few episodes are available in the collector's market.

I hope this is enough information to satisfy you at this time, 'Jrnygrl'.
