Trying to remember some obscure anime

Saw this mecha anime a long time ago when I was six or seven. Only saw one episode but it was sort of interesting. There was this guy with this lion mecha (no, not Voltron). When the robot transforms, the lion head goes to the center (chest area). They fight this large flying crystal on an airbase. I think the robot was able to talk. There was also some girl on the base dressed as a ballerina. She gets into the base by doing some acrobatic moves to get past the gate guard. Anyone have any idea what show this is?

Seeing as how the show I mentioned has "Primada appears to be a pale ballerina-type woman with flowing orange hair" describing one of the main characters and "GaoGaiGar's chest bears the shape of a lion's head (actually the head of Galeon)", "Galeon, a sentient mechanical lion of alien design", I'm pretty sure this is it. I find it hard to believe there are multiple mecha anime out there with such specific character combinations.

Edit:

Not to mention repeated references to a "G-Crystal" as some major plot device, as well as some sort of other crystals that combine to form a mega-crystal or something.

Ok, let me be more specific then. The entire robot was a lion. It transforms into some kind of humanoid. The giant crystal was an enemy attacking the base. It is massive and parts of it can extend outwards in a stabbing motion. The girl just happened to be dressed like a ballerina for that episode (I think). The characters did not look super kiddy.
 
Did it look anything like this?
