Monster Zero x SciFi Japan - Archive Only

Man, oh man! I loved the '98 toon show and have been waiting for a full release. And the price is just astounding if it's the whole series.

I'm not sure if we had put to bed any confusion about whether this would be the 98 series or the HB series...


but this will do so (also, it's the cover art, so it's news)

Info about the GODZILLA: THE SERIES DVD set is now on SciFi Japan...

Day before my birthday, awesome!

Two episodes, 126: The Ballad of Gens Du Marais and 139: Tourist Trap, did not air during the FOX TV run. Wikipedia and some other sources state that a third episode (129: Vision) also never aired, but they're mistaken.

The two episodes were never shown on American television or released on video here. But they have been available on streaming services; either Netflix or Amazon (or both) carried all of the episodes of G:TS. The series was also shown overseas (including Japan) and, as far as I know, all of the episodes were aired in those countries.

Awesome. Thanks for the clarification, Keith! I will very likely be getting this DVD set from a friend of mine as a late birthday present.

There were a G:TS panels at the 1999 and 2000 G-Fests in California, and Episode 35: S.C.A.L.E. was premiered at the 99 fest before it aired on television.

In 2001 or 2002 I got Sony's permission to screen the two unaired episodes at the Asian Fantasy Film Expo in New Jersey. That was the first time those episodes were shown publicly.

Why the heck can't we get the complete Hanna-Barbera series?

I love the Hanna-Barbera show, I wouldn't be as into Godzilla if it weren't for it. I wish Media Blasters had put out the 2nd season. That said, a complete bargain set like GTS is receiving would be ideal for the old show.

Speaking of the HB show, I recently noticed that Volume 3 of the HB set seems to be OOP, but Volumes 1 and 2 are still readily available. I emailed Classic Media this Monday about it, but haven't heard back from them yet. Since Gareth Edwards has mentioned the HB show several times, I thought I'd pick up these releases and watch them, to see if there were any silly Easter Eggs in the upcoming movie, so I was sort of bummed to see that Volume 3 is apparently unavailable.

I believe CM has the rights to the entire Godzilla HB series but opted not to release anything beyond the first season due to poor sales.

I wouldn't be surprised if the poor sales were due to interested buyers waiting for complete season sets or a complete series set. I think CM only put 4 or 5 episodes on a disc right?

I like H-B's show more, since at least it LOOKS like Godzilla, but neither are great. I mean, this new one is remake of HB's anyway. Nick- Carl, Elsie- Dr. Quinn, Randy- an even more annoying Pete, N.I.G.E.L.- Godzooky and Craven - Brock. Oh yeah, and Gino- Godzilla.
