Re: Tatsunoko Hero Insect Model Kits

Hi KT, Wait, aren't they the Infini-T Force heros? Would be great to get the full set, but I doubt I could afford them all. Gonna think on it a while. Yes, those are the same four main heroes from Infini-T Force . I'm with you in thinking about it. These are interesting, but I'm not sure if they're ...

Tatsunoko Hero Insect Model Kits

The Fujimi Company of Japan teased a Berg Katse mantis plastic model kit a while ago, but did not mention there was going to be a whole line of Tatsunoko models planned to go with it... Now, coming in May are five Tatsunoko kits, two of which will be Gatchaman -related. Here is Fujimi's flyer showin...

Re: What did Sandy Frank think Gatchaman was about?

Hi Cure DragonEagle, I know the famous story when Mr Jameson Brewer saw the Gatchaman uncut footage and went "Uhhhhhhhh... I think we have a problem Mr Frank." But we never found just WHY Mr Sandy Frank saw the Gatchaman footage and immediately went "This could be a nice Star Wars esq...

Re: Endings

Hi Bobkat, Gatchaman 105: The team returns to base one short, but we never see Joe's body. We're pretty sure he's dead but just how did he disappear? (I'm thinking JUST from the prespective of the 105 ending, not the explaining what happens at the beginning of Gatchaman II). Who later dismantles Gal...

Re: Endings

If you go by the suggested viewing order and/or the Schedule A order for Battle , its ending is more tragic. Since it's "Invasion of Space Center, Part II," Spectra scores a major win and leaves G-Force hurting. Imagine that being your last new episode. If Sandy Frank had gotten Gatchaman ...

Re: Despite all the edits Battle Of The Planets has a TV-14 ratings on streaming.

Hi Stardust, I have a few thoughts on to why it may be the 14yr old rating. There's a lot of laws going around in regard to transgender, non binary, and such... I suppose anything's possible, but that was never really part of Zoltar. Mala was introduced as a completely separate character to address ...

Re: Despite all the edits Battle Of The Planets has a TV-14 ratings on streaming.

Hi Cure DragonEagle, Wow this confirms something I was suspecting. Despite the major edits and changes to remove violence and other unkid friendly stuff, Battle Of The Planets is still quite the edgy show. It was made in an era that frowned on violence but it managed to get a lot to slide. Curious. ...

Mr. Sadao Miyamoto Has Passed Away

Hi all, It's another very sad bit of news to pass along, but blogs in Japan are reporting that Mr. Sadao Miyamoto, or "Miyasan," as he always asked to be called, died on January 9. Miyasan was born in Osaka on May 16, 1937. He loved drawing and used to copy pictures from comic books from t...
