Name that 80s Cartoon/Anime

I'm trying to find the name of a cartoon/anime I remember watching on VHS, I'm assuming it was released in the 80s as I watched it early 90s.
From rusty memory:
Set in space, not sure if a series or just a single shot as I only had the one VHS, there are 3 men and a woman, they are on a larger space ship and each have their own smaller ships (maybe not the woman), I remember two of the men quite well, ones main colour was blue and he was the leader type. The other was a fat man pretty sure his main colour was yellow and was the slapstick dumb character who liked to eat. I'm pretty sure the third was the young hot headed one who constantly made fun of the fat one.
One plot I remember was there was this huge space monster who had frozen an entire planet/large part of it. The leader had some kind of running guilt he had to get over, he froze in combat when fighting it in the past or something, and this was his chance to over come it. I remember when they hurt it an aura is released from it and it unfreezes the planet. Not sure if same plot but also one time the fat one gets stuck/jammed in briefly trying to get into his fighter. Oh yeah! He also gets excited about making popcicles of different flavours when they found the iced over planet.
One of the characters ships weapon was some kind of energy fork/trident blast....I think.
Please help me this is driving me mad!

Oh and the ships were just ships, not robots or anything.
