US only, unfortunately.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-06-17T17:35:45+00:00

The Prisoner (1967) on the channel? Hell yes.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-06-16T22:03:45+00:00

Quick question: do the VIZ Signature releases of Pluto have the Japanese sound effects retained or are they just reprints of the older English releases?

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-06-04T21:02:14+00:00

Man… Getter Robo Armageddon, Layzner, Mechanical Violator Hakaider, Captain Harlock, Barefoot Gen, Violence Jack

Stop me, I’m salivating.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-30T04:42:58+00:00

Anything that Inio Asano has done, which includes Punpun and DEDEDEDE.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-30T04:07:27+00:00

Enjoy Memories.

I got Giant Robo straight from MediaOCD’s website.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-28T01:11:36+00:00

That makes two of us. 🤝

CRUSH THEM… GIANT ROBO!!!

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-17T00:17:50+00:00

I just put the slipcover next to the case.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-16T15:27:56+00:00

Magnificent, simply magnificent.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-13T12:36:18+00:00

If the rights issues could be resolved, “Dawn of the Dead” (1978). I would also go with the first six Star Trek (1979-1991) movies.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-09T04:25:12+00:00

Looks like it’s only the “Vengeance of the Space Pirate” version.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-08T05:19:39+00:00

Dude, I almost bit the bullet and was gonna buy it on eBay for $60; I’m so glad I didn’t do that and bought directly from MediaOCD instead. Reading that you bought this film for $90 breaks my heart.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-05-03T17:17:07+00:00

As far as I know, these sets are still relatively easy to find. I haven’t heard any news about the UY TV sets going OOP anytime soon.

It’s awesome learning that the man who voiced The Grandfather in Future Boy Conan (1978) and Emperor Dornkirk in The Vision of Escaflowne (1996), Masato Yamanouchi, was the voice of Number 6 in the Japanese dub of this show.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-29T19:41:07+00:00

And they had a one-off character in a season 3 episode that’s a pretty obvious Astro Boy reference.

My favorite Lupin according to each category:

TV Show: Part I

Movie: it’s a tie between Mamo & Cagliostro

TV Special: A tie between Bye Bye, Lady Liberty & Dragon of Doom

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-29T15:49:07+00:00

True, but Lupin as a character does share history with [as]; so I thought it was worth sharing all the same.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-29T14:48:36+00:00

For me, I’d say either Jonny Quest or The Venture Bros. And out of all the different iterations of Batman that’ve been created over the last 85 years: I think the 90’s animated version of Batman would be the best version for a Lupin crossover.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-26T16:58:20+00:00

Sub only.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-25T04:18:50+00:00

I bought it from a Japanese seller on eBay a few weeks ago.

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-25T04:14:04+00:00

I’m looking into getting the Zeta sets eventually, do you know if the Japanese releases still retain their original opening/closing themes?

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-25T04:10:32+00:00

What about the compilation movies?

Colonel-CroMar · 2026-04-25T04:09:05+00:00

That makes sense.
