Alright, I was going through my poster collection book, and I found two sets of "Hero" (classified) oriented shows, and I know one of them is Ultraman (Taro, I think), but I am unsure of the other one. Anyway, can anyone tell me what ones they are?

Toho distributed Tsuburaya's TV shows to theaters. In 1967, Toho released a movie compilation of Ultraman, double-featured with King Kong Escapes in Japan. The posters you showed are pretty much theatrical showings of TV episodes in Toho's Champion Festivals. They even released anime episodes of Gatchaman, Casshan and others.

The posters are from, in order, Ultraman Tarou (1973), Mirrorman (1971) and Return of Ultraman (1971).
