Finally, at long last, Eastern Star aka Discotek got off their asses and sent a solicitation to Amazon, so you can order the magic and wonder of some Dr. Slump movies on DVD:

http://www.amazon.com/Dr-Slump-Original-Movie-Collection/dp/B00KB3PZAQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1405029338&sr=1-1&keywords=dr.+slump

This is fun, silly, crazy stuff. If you don't laugh at some point during the 5 movies then you're dead inside.

The Dr. Slump Space Movie is probably the single most epic thing in the set. Being a savage parody of the 'typical' '80s EPIC SPACE EPIC anime films that Toei and others were cranking out you can't but help laughing your butt off.

Go buy it. Don't worry, I haven't signed up to get anything from Amazon for linking, I'm just trying to help Discotek do the job they seem to not want to do- that is, actually PUBLICIZE their releases.

I can't wait to hear Daryl Surat react to the Space Movie.

Soon all will bow before the power of Dr. Mashilito. Can Midori be saved? Will Senbei have to go back to doing dirty, pervy things since his hot teacher wife is now a space princess?

LET'S FIND OUT TOGETHER, FOR THE FUTURE!

I'd point to the almost always cheaper discotek media webstore, but they haven't updated yet. Getting lazy, I see. This disc is done and good to go, they were already selling it at Metrocon. I can't wait to get my copy!

And Right Stuf has it for cheaper as well, last I looked it was $10 below MSRP, which, to be honest, $19.99 is where it SHOULD be.

UPDATE AS I TYPE: Now $18.99. F**K YOU AMAZON

Lazy? Overwhelmed? Fallen between the cracks? I dunno. I know Discotek is "two dudes and a garage" kind of business but yeesh. I really think it's past time they hire a couple more people. It's not 1988.

The reason why getting it on Amazon is important is because it's the big deal. It's where many many people go to look for stuff. Good or bad, Amazon matters. Hell, I'd wager most of today's fans don't even know Right Stuf exists.
