!! I am sorry to say this guys but I hope these toys have big delays. That way we can save up better x_x

Let's see, I paid 100 euro's for Speedy plus 25 customs costs. So I'll need at least 375 which is exactly 5 months of saving.
I am hoping for a end of the year release for the Great Catatonic and late 2015 and late 2016 for Guido and Polly.

That way our wallets will know mercy 

I finally ordered both sets after months of setting it back

Discotek doesn't do IT shipping for the moment I was forced to buy them off Ebay. I trust the retailer.
Its just that we both didn't know if disc 2 was the defective version or not. I hope that works out.

Any way any word on the Australian versions from Madman? I wish I could have gotten those to be honest.
I trust Madman more then Discotek.

I am going to go with my hunch that they'd use the designs of the sequel that never got fruition but non the less is luckily in our fanbooks

I totally forgot to post here xD

 

I got my ES Gokin Speedy for a few weeks now, the build is good though I kept having issues with the neck.
And the back part of the Ginzu sword is a pain to keep in place. It didn't came with a pizza though that was fixed by stealing it from Mikey.
Over all I am pretty happy to just display him in default mode In front of the place where I will be putting up my KNT/SPC/MMPR dvd sets when I buy them in the next two months.

I am sad that there's no news on the ES Gokin Nyagou King yet. At least an update on the paint job would make me happy.
Though not as much as an ES Gokin release of the other Pizza Cats

I just got my copy off mandarake, it should be here in a week and a half, also the Speedy figure is already going for ¥16,000 on there. so now I am going to take extra, extra care of it lol   

I was 4 but I remember it well since that was the year Carlo started co-hosting telekids lol. 1993 on rtl4, though I forgot which day and time. Might have been wednesdays  

Err, I'm kinda not too happy you did that. This was a pretty critical review, after all, even if I am glad to have it and would encourage others to buy it anyway. I thought about sending Discotek another e-mail, but more nicely worded than what I've written here. In the future, maybe you should ask before you do something like that.

Sorry, my sincere apologies, I did not know I wasn't to post it there, and I though it get more users one the forums 

Hmm I posted the link to this review on the comment section of the Discotek facebook page and now the comment section has been removed. Guess they can't have some well pointed out criticism. Even though this review is still telling fans to actually buy the set 

Thank you for the great review. I made sure to pass it around a bit like on the Discotek FB page. I've been putting off the buy last month due to money issues. And I did want to buy it this month but seeing this it has put me off a bit. I am still going to get it, but I waited for so long I think I can wait a bit longer and use the money for something equally disappointing but more limited.

[I plan on getting the KNT set first when it comes out. Forgive me for being under a rock, but is this gonna available in stores or just online?]

I'll just take what's out right now which is ES Gokin Yattaro and the two dvd sets. The art book maybe but I got so much already.

Its on pre-order on Discotek itself. free of shipping and almost half the price that the retailers use. http://www.discotekmedia.com/kyatto_ninden_teyandee.htm

I honestly don't know. It depends on when my money checks in. But I am buying them both.

I just bought ES-Gokin PC-01 Speedy from Ebay. It was €99.63 which is a huge price for me but with the DVD set coming up I couldn't resist!
Luckily a dude was interested in my Shogun Warriors Grendizer and I was able to sell it to him, so that worked out for the better xD

I do not plan on getting the Supreme Catatonic, but I do hope Polly comes out as well!  

To the clip posted:  Considering this is a 1990 period anime, and in 'Youtube' quality, that transfer looks quite clear, though it looks like the image here is stretched and 'letterboxed'.  Will look quite good on a decent-quality TV with a player that can properly up-convert DVD, though let's not expect HD-quality.  It will be 4:3 and, pending your setup is correct, 'pillarboxed' (bars at the left / right).  I have a few older 1980s-era anime and TV shows (Ranma 1/2, Maison Ikkoku for anime, and the 1980s TV drama 'Dallas' among them), and those looked clear and vibrant on my TV, so I'm expecting like-quality with SPC.  I've got my setup where it plays the formats properly depending on the source material.  I've tried in the past watching older shows with 'fullscreen' productions are stretched to fill my widescreen setup.  In short, terrible-looking to my eyes....stretched faces and what-not.

I notice with cel animation, whether Western like Disney, or from Japan, the quality depended on money spent and release format.  The more spent (like on something like Escaflowne), or on the many OAVs and movies released in those days, the quality was often-times better than any typical weekly TV series that were aired.  Long-running shows just often looked average to below....choppy animation, jitter in scene-changes, etc.  Some studios (GAINAX) were notorious for basically running the money well dry to the point where all they could do were still shots.

That said, again, I say this looks quite nice.  It'll be nicer running off a BluRay / DVD player via HDMI on a regular TV.  I wouldn't pass final judgement on a YT clip.

Yes you are correct about that, I assumed it was DVD quality because its the only KNT video on youtube that has a remastered look instead of looking like the encodes KNT used to sub the first 3 episodes. And this being the only one posted in 2012 I honestly thought I was right.


Also I should have posted the ED too

I haven't been here allot due to toku and ponies keeping me busy.

Though I thought I should come back to express my happiness with these two dvd sets and ES Gokin Speedy (no sign of a pre-order on AmiAmi yet)

I also found this HD dvd rip on youtube just after it was announced. It looks so good I cannot wait to order it.  

Maybe power rangers will now be more action packed, I hope...

As for reruns of SPC, I'm kind of afraid they might censor the sex jokes and cover the Otakuness, which would be a bad thing if you think about it.

Well i hope its going to be similar to the original material

I think it would still be better to dump PR all together and just sub Super Sentai XD
As for SPC, damn i haven't thought of that! that would suck

I can't believe that no one made a thread about this yet!! This is wonderful news!! Not only do the Power Rangers get a new season adapted from the awesome Samurai Sentai Shinkenger and aired on Nickelodeon (here's to hoping it will air on the Dutch one) what's also awesome is the fact that if it goes well, Saban might buy other popular shows back too!! (hint, hint  )

welcome linda! (last time a dutch person joined...it left the day after XD)

Hey i didn't leave! i lurk waiting for new encodes

so you go to neeltje jans with the bike? (if you're on vacation in zeeland)

Only once from Haamstede over the Rijksweg 57 to a beach near Zeedijk, it was very windy and the cars where going 100 kmph and i was like 7 and scared XD

Sealand is awesome i went on vacation there more then a few times, the only thing i didnt like about it was that once the car was so full that my dad and i needed to take the bicycle over the delta works.

You've been to Sealand?

Not that one but it does look like that piece of the pier in Scheveningen the Hague that people aren`t supposed to use anymore.

Thank you guys for the warm welcome

welcome usb! hope you'll stay a little longer on the forums then most newcomers are
(btw, woon in zeeland, redelijk in de buurt XD)

Ik wil eigenlijk niet eens in Delft leven, ik zit liever in Den Haag, Leiden of Dordrecht XD

Hi i`m Usbcheater from Holland

I logged on to this site to follow Tsuneko`s encodes of SPC (thanx 4 those btw) actually logged on yesterday but it was late and i had to call quits without posting anything lol and now its 2.00 am again. Lets see where to start I`m a big fan of Tokusatsu and Anime i`m especially a big fan of Tatsunoko anime like SPC and Yatterman and also Super Robot series.
I`m also a Wiki/Forum moderator at AnimeVice.com a one year old forum and i keep being told that i`m doing a decent job, well at least i always get the spammers banned on their first post.
I`m also on top of the wiki list mostly because i worked on all those Tokusatsu pages.

That about it see you guys around
