Kikaider 01 on SD-BD!
It sounds like most of the extras from the Generation Kikaida DVD set will be included here as well.
Android Kikaider 01!
The 46 episode sequel series follows Ichiro, Kikaider 01 & the other brother of Jiro, as they battle Hakaider & Shadow!
The entire series is here with polished subtitles & most of the existing extras from prior US releases.

Oh man... as a kid, I always loved 01 more than Kikaider (and Kamen Rider V3 and Riderman more than Rider 1). I'm just so conditioned to "wait for the sale"

Re: Toku Time
The annoying thing is that this might have been recently remastered in Japan. Toei did a poll a couple months back about which series to remaster, and 01 was one of the shows listed. A month later, they'd already dated the winner, Kaiketsu Zubat, for a Blu-ray release near the end of the year. That seems like a really fast turnaround, so my guess is that the poll wasn't really about what to remaster but what to release first.
But even if 01 has a remaster ready to go, it's all academic if Toei doesn't make it available to Discotek.

I have a Space Sheriff Gavan box set (w/English subs) that I bought in Chinatown years ago. I love it, but sounds like an upgrade is in order to support this new wave of releases.
Gavan star Kenji Ohba's mentor, Sonny Chiba makes cameo appearances near the end of the series. One of the great things about the series is all the martial arts fight scenes Ohba does out of costume.
