[Relaxo]

Well: The dub was produced by Toei for US TV - and as Toei skipped these eps, there isn't much Sentai could do about it.

But yes this is Good News and i hope @anime_andrew is watching

 

[Scavenger]

There are older English dubs (East Asian dub of series, Streamline Pictures dubs of two compilation films), but GKIDS will likely be using the new English dub that was commissioned by the Japanese rightsholders for international distribution.

That's wonderful! I do hope they will release it in the UK as well, if not I will import (though I will give it some time to see what happens on that front before importing as I'd rather support a UK release if it is done to a high standard/good QC)

No idea about East Asian dub. Wikipedia regarding Streamline dub

14 years later in 1992, Streamline Pictures licensed the anime along with Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water from NHK. Streamline Pictures dubbed the film compilations of the series Future Boy Conan (1979) and Future Boy Conan: The Big Giant Robot's Resurrection (1984) for Japan Airlines. Streamline was planning to release the two film in North America on VHS, but the estate of Alexander Key became aware. The Key estate issued a cease and desist letter, threatening a lawsuit if Future Boy Conan ever got a US release. This resulted in Streamline Pictures giving the rights back to NHK. As of 2021, the show and the film compilations still had not been released to the US market.
