PSYCHE!!!
Ultraman isn't available yet. But I did get a press release from one of our DVD vendors, BCI, that it's coming this July. BCI brought us Shaolin Dolemite.
Here's the release below:
NAVARRE CORPORATION’S BCI TO RELEASE ALL 39 ORIGINAL EPISODES OF THE CLASSIC, JAPANESE LIVE-ACTION TV SERIES
“Ultraman”
“Season One, Volume One” Available July, 2006
Los Angeles, CA – BCI, a wholly owned subsidiary of Navarre Corporation (NASDAQ Symbol: NAVR), and publisher of DVDs and CDs, today announced that it will begin releasing, this July, all 39 original episodes of the classic, Japanese live-action television series “Ultraman.”. The announcement was made by Greg Glass, Senior Vice President, BCI.
“Ultraman represents one of the most popular ‘tokusatsu’—special effects—superhero genre productions ever to come out of Japan,” said Glass. “This series pre-dated the popular Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and we expect it to garner a tremendous fan base here in the United States.”
Ultraman was originally produced by Tsuburaya Productions, and the 39 original episodes were broadcast on Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) from July 1966 to April 1967. An additional 11 Ultraman TV series were produced from 1967 to 1998. Ultraman was syndicated on television in the United States by United Artists in the 1970s.
Ultraman is the story of a series of “Ultra-heros” that arrive on Earth to fight giant, evil monsters set on destroying the world. Each Ultraman can grow to over 200 feet tall, and uses a variety of energy emission powers, as well as expert, hand-to-hand martial arts fighting styles.
The series was created by Elji Tsuburaya, a special effects pioneer responsible for bringing the classic Godzilla character to life in 1954. Tsuburaya was the director of special effects on over 100 films throughout his career, including every major monster film produced in Japan.
