After all of these years, you can watch Battle Fever again, and we're not talking about faded collector's copies of tapes either.   Battle Fever recently became available on DVD!!   The catch is that they are Region 2 DVDs, which means that you are going to need an all region DVD player in order to play them  (but you can buy one here).  The other thing is that they are in the original Japanese without any subtitles.   So that poses another difficulty for English speaking audiences.  For that reason, I have made my original tapes available for download.  But if you want to watch a clean copy, then you should buy the DVDs.

You can also buy Battle Fever music CDs these days.   I've made the main songs available on mp3.   But if you want all of the instrumental background music, karaoke versions of songs, etc. then you should pick up the CDs.  They're pretty cheap for import CDs too!

Probably the ultimate in Battle Fever memorabilia is the AWESOME Soul of Chogokin GX-30.  If you've never heard of the Soul of Chogokin series, Bandai has recently been re-releasing extremely detailed and articulate full die-cast metal toys of all of the giant robo mecha that they released in the 70's and 80's.  The series is fantastic, and aimed at the adult collectors who grew up with these toys 30 years ago.  When I saw that they were releasing one of the Battle Fever robo, I literally jumped for joy.  This guy is an absoulte thing of beauty, and a must have of any mecha or tokusatsu fan...

You can watch a video of someone reviewing their GX-30 here (part 1, 2, 3)

There is also an excellent and detailed review of the GX-30 done by Tet's Toys!

If you're in Honolulu, I've seen the GX-30 on sale at Toys-n-Joys.
But it might be cheaper to buy it from Yes Asia or off of eBay.

Here are some pictures of some of the older Battle Fever toys that Bandai came out with in the 80's.   These days, they're practically impossible to find.  So if you can find one, it's a real collector's item!   Even I don't have any of these, as much as I would love to have one.
