They also got Message from Space! It's basically Star Wars as a Japanese tokusatsu TV series.

This is... Pretty big right? I know someone who'll be as giddy as they were during the Smash Direct's CastleVania showcase

Oh, that's a more obscure one! I always love seeing more official English subtitled tokusatsu.

I'd definitely say this is big though. Metal Heroes are one of Toei's three big franchises and Juspion is one of the more popular entries in the series. It was aired in a couple of different countries around the world and I know it was pretty huge in Brazil. Honestly, I'd say any tokusatsu series release in the US is huge news. This isn't something anyone ever really thought would happen just a couple of years ago. I mean, yeah, there's the Kamen Rider V3 and Kikaider sets, but those were aimed squarely at Hawaii due to its connections to Japan. |

Will there be others?
I'm actually amused at this! Has the distributor released any other Tokusatsu before? |

Buying this so we can eventually get the Space Sheriff series stateside.

Huh. This is right out of left field. I'll probably pick this up, even though I'm not a big Metal Heroes fan. I just think that something like this should be encouraged (also, if it does well, hopefully we'll get Metalder, which is one of my all-time favorite toku shows).
