Description

Astro Boy DVD Set 1 contains episodes 1-52 of the anime directed by Osamu Tezuka, plus a special collector's booklet, and an entire DVD full of extra bonus material, including part 1 of an interview with series producer Fred Ladd!

The very first anime ever produced, Osamu Tezuka's (Kimba, the White Lion/Phoenix/Metropolis) original 1963-1964 Astro Boy delighted children around the world with its touching stories and compelling characters. In the U.S., many will remember this popular children's series which aired on TV during the 1960s.

Now, this groundbreaking series returns for the first time ever in a stunning new collector's edition that includes the first 52 episodes of the original black and white series as seen in the US, restored to pristine detail, and featuring never-before-seen footage and brand new exciting extras.

The original boy-robot with 100,000 horsepower strength and courage! In the year 2000, Dr. Boyton creates a super-robot in his deceased son's image. He calls the robot Astro Boy. Astro Boy can swim oceans, leap over mountains, even fly into space on his own power. However, Astro Boy can't replace his son. Dr. Boyton becomes dissatisfied with the boy robot and disowns him.

Astro Boy is befriended by Dr. Packadermus J. Elefun of the Institute of Science, who guides him through his adventures. Endowed with super strength, rocket-powered flight, a selfless heart and a kind demeanor, Astro Boy fights a never-ending crusade against the forces of evil!

DVD Features: Part 1 of an interview with series producer Fred Ladd; Original Japanese Episode 1 (with English subtitles); Original Character Art Gallery; Merchandise Gallery; A Collector's Booklet featuring "The History of Astro Boy"; an Osamu Tezuka biography.

If we list a product is new, we promise that the item will be in new condition.  We DO NOT promise that the packaging will be in pristine, untouched, mint condition, but we do try to offer the best quality we can (vast majority are in mint/near mint condition) and we demote an item to used condition if we find that the packaging has more wear than normal wear and tear from the manufacture and shipping process.  If you are purchasing an item and are expecting MINT condition packaging, please shop elsewhere.  Please do not ask for photos of the specific item, the stock photo represents the product, we often have tons of a product in stock and cannot go and constantly take photos of all 6 sides of products.  We will withhold shipping charges for returns due to minor wear on an item's packaging, unless we explicitly promise the condition of the packaging to be in mint condition.
