Ultra 7 - Ultraman - Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot on DVD?

Does anyone know if these is going to be released on DVD.
Does anyone care?
There was also Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot.
These were amazing Japanese shows from the 60's and 70's.

As far as I know there is a 35th anniversery set that's been issued by Tsurbaraya productions in Japan. It's not English subbed and appears to be fairly expensive.

Ebay usually has collections of pretty great quality for all these shows.

I have Ultraman, Johnny Sokko and Space Giants on DVD and the quality on the first two is good but the quality on Space Giants is great.

They are English dubbed with bits of the original language coming through every now and then.

Loved all these shows as a kid and am really glad to have them on DVD.

I did get mine from Ebay but, I have no idea who I purchased them from.

How many discs were each show on? Were they the complete set of episodes?

Thanks!

Most of these series are getting very nice DVD releases in Japan, but alas, no English subs. (too bad, I would love to get some Ultra Seven discs myself, and still might buy them).

Subtitled DVDs can be found on ebay, but they are most likely bootlegs, so YMMV.

Ultraman is 8 discs
Johnny Sokko is 5 discs
Space Giants is 3 discs.

And yes, these are the complete episodes and the complete series.

Nice collection, I'd like to get my hands on those as well. Brings back the past.
