Description: Nippon Columbia had some success with revamping Casshan for Tatsunoko in 1993, and the following year they decided to add Gatchaman to their list of updated classics. As with Casshan, the main creative force behind the look and feel of the series was Animation Director and Character Designer Yasuomi Umezu. The first of the three volumes of the new Gatchaman project was released on the twenty-second anniversary of the original show's television premiere - October 1, 1994. Volume 1 ran approximately 49 minutes, while volumes 2 and 3 were approximately 45 minutes each. At certain locations, buyers of the tapes received promotional posters featuring the cover art for that particular volume. There was also a mail-in offer to obtain a phone card premium with purchase of all three videos. Stereo
