    Toei's 1970s Japanese Spider-man TV show now on Marvel.com

    Toei's wacky but fun Spider-man TV show shown in Japan in the 1970's can now be seen on Marvel's website, complete with English subs. The first episode debuted a few days ago and a new episode will be shown every Thursday. Once I fast forwarded through the slow stuff at the beginning, my three year old son really enjoyed the hijinks with Spidey and his giant robot Leopardon. He already can't wait for the next episode. It's great stuff, far more entertaining than the US live action show from the 70's.

    The only legitimate release is a Japanese DVD box set, but it has no English subs and is very expensive (par for the course for Japanese releases like this). Fan subbed "grey market" DVDs can be found online without much effort though.

    Do you have a vintage Popinica GP7? That's pretty cool. I have a repro version that came with the Soul of Chogokin Leopardon set, it's a cool car.

    Ya, I was checking and I have the intro Movie and 17 Episodes not 20. I got mine on ebay, some time ago. However the DVD-R were made by

    They also sent me a flyer with what the had for sell. I also got from they a Filipino Batman Spoof Movie called Batguy and the Robbers. It was made in early 1990s to spoof the Tim Burton Batam Movies but they made all the Heroes and Villians Look like the 1966 Adam West Version. It is fun to watch However the dialog is 35% English and 65% Filipino.

    Told you they wouldn't be hard to find.

    There are torrents out there to download too, if you do those.
