P.S.: Spoilers for the production/conception phase for Gridman, Ultraman, Super Star God, and Kamen Rider Stronger, and even CyberCop!

How is doing Juspion blu-ray sales ?

Not a question, but a story of note.

Many have probably seen by now that Makio Inoue has passed away, known for Goemon in Lupin III and Captain Harlock.

He was also the voice of Zabitan in Akumaizer 3.

Akumaizer 3 were re-imagined during the Heisei Era as Kamen Rider Villains!

The 2017 Bravestorm Movie is now available in the West, but I have no idea what to expect.

It's based on Silver Mask and Red Baron, and I can't remember anything specific about either of them.

The images I'm seeing of Bravestorm make me think of Pacific Rim in terms of visuals.

Anyone know much of the film, and the two series it's based on?

I forgot about that movie! I don't know anything about Silver Mask, but Super Robot Robot Red Baron is a pretty fun show. You can probably still get the DVDs cheap on Amazon.

Beetleborgs could had been better if had a similar plot from B-fighter.

It's the symptom of being 90s. That is why people don't take Power Rangers seriously because they are very, very 90s.

I wish could exist more original american toku today.

I give Bettleborg some credit for trying to be original and different. I like it over MMPR, but that's not saying much.

There's potential for it, but as things stand right now, it seems American children's programming is more about comedy, rather than action. I think, aside from Power Rangers, the only consistent action show is Ninja Turtles.

Maybe once a new wave of action shows prove profitable once again, we could see some original toku series.

I really disliked Beetleborgs when I tried to rewatch it, but I do have to admit when I was younger, I adored Beetleborgs. For every 1 PR toy my brother and I had, we had 3 Beetleborg toys :lol
