Eh what. China even does the Super Hero Time thing? In Hong Kong they're on seperate days.

Hong Kong version Episode 1.

What, do they hire two people to voice the entire cast? Everyone sounds alike

[Roanstalker]

Heh TVB has been getting sloppy. Besides a lot of the 90s talent has disappeared from the TV anime/toku so the new dubs usually suck. If you watch some of the recent toku you'll notice the same guys doing the voices. The voice that narrates the Great war plays the lead in Kabuto and Den-O at least. Man the 90s was the best time for HK dubs.

As a side note, they skipped Goseiger apparently…Sentai won't like that one bit.

[Shin Densetsu]

Hmm...maybe another shot at DX GokaiOh.

[Denshin48]

cool I now have an option to get the Sabre, gun and Galleon Buster

[Mageranger Red]

Wait... I thought the toys were allready released in Hong Kong. When I was looking up ranger keys I remember seeing quite a few coming from there and then there's the whole "Bandai Asia" toys that supposedly were quiter than their Japanese counterparts. What am I missing?

Not entirely sure about the quieter thing but Hong Kong does important japanese toys so they essentially get the toyline twice. But aside from candy toys, those imports dont end up in big chain retailers (Jusco or TRU). Usually only sold through smaller shops. These ones are the proper Hong Kong release with the Tv series being run alongside it. You'll notice Goseiger stuff in HK as well but that series was never shown here.

Ah ok, I didn't think about that aspect. That makes sense. I guess I just assumed since Korea had gotten the show (and renamed it apparently) that the same was true for Hong Kong and other parts of China. Thank you for your response!

I wonder if we have another influx of Gokaiger toys if we'll start seeing some price drops....

[Banba Soukichi]

excellent news.....now where can we Get those wonderful toys?
