ULTRAMAN SERIES 1 VOLUME 2 (1960’S) TV: DVD REVIEWA short blurb from BCI-Eclipse about Ultraman Series 1 Volume 2: Ultraman comes to DVD for the first time. This three DVD set includes the final 19 episodes of the first series, uncut and remastered, of the original Tsuburaya Productions television series created by Eiji Tsuburaya, the special effects genius who created one of the greatest film monsters of all time, GODZILLA.
On the box it shows Series 1, which I hope that means that BCI Eclipse has the rights for the other Ultraman series! That would be the first time that the series of shows would have a proper US outlet. Time will tell.
