[QUOTE="Professor Irony, post: 380351, member: 159"] We lost a lot of UK dubs that way, even though most now live on thanks to the internet. Nevertheless, I'm quite glad I still have the original VHS tapes for [b]KO Century Beast Warriors[/b] and [b]Catgirl Nuku Nuku[/b]. Neither dub is particularly outstanding, but I think they've got a certain curiosity value and I have good memories of both. The UK dub for the [b]Cobra[/b] film comes to mind too. Although most of the replacement Yello soundtrack is just licensed music, I think there was one piece that was recorded specifically for the film, so it seems a shame that it's just been allowed to disappear. The only significant ones I can think of offhand though (that absolutely haven't had a DVD release in English), are two the of the Lupin films; [b]Legend of Gold Babylon[/b] and [b]Goodbye Lady Liberty[/b]. Gold Babylon is no great loss (only redeeming feature was the theme tune), but Lady Liberty was quite entertaining - probably one of the better tv specials. I don't think it even had a VHS release in the US, so there's a bit of obscurity value there if anyone still has it. Fake edit: Oh yeah, and the '[b]Super Deformed Double Feature[/b]'. Scramble Wars often gets a kicking from the critics nowadays, but I like it. [/QUOTE]
