According to Anime News Network, the Mysterious Cities Of Gold is coming out on DVD here in the UK in February 2008! I really loved this TV series when I was a child! My boyfriend has already volunteered to get me a copy for my birthday. :D
As it doesn't say otherwise, I expect this release to be English-language only, which would be great - as I remember. It was good in English, a similar cast to Ulysses 31 (which is another superb series I'd recommend to anyone), but, I'd also love to hear this in Japanese. Why? Because Sasaki Isao is playing Mendoza. ^_^ Nozawa Masako (most of the Dragon Ball universe saiyajin, and hundreds of other leading roles) is playing Esteban, too. ^_^
It probably can't be multi-language, though, since the differences between the English, Japanese and French versions of this series are all a little different... even the UK and US versions are different...! -_-;;

Sasaki Isao in Taiyo No Hakaba
Well, my brother was talking about Sasaki Isao and DVD screencaps today, so I decided to go ahead and get some screencaps from the 1960 film Taiyo no Hakaba (otherwise known as "The Sun's Burial" or "Tomb of the Sun"), which is a miserable kind of film by Oshima Nagisa ("Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence" etc).
Sasaki Isao has a large role in the film. He's still a teenager, a very scrawny looking Japanese Elvis. :D He's so young he doesn't even have a really deep voice yet! But even now, closing in on 50 years later, he hasn't changed that much, has he? ^_^

Tatsunoko Fight! (PS1 game)
Tatsunoko Fight! (PS1 game) Opening Sequence
Wow, that looks fun!! :D
Gatchaman vs Casshan vs Hurricane Polymer vs Tekkaman vs... Volter?
...looks like Volter is especialy created for this game. I wonder if he's been character designed by Amano Yoshitaka as well (since all the others were). Though... he left Tatsunoko Pro in the early 1980s and I'm not sure he'd return to that kind of anime character design again... but this is game character design, and he was still doing Final Fantasy designs... so...
It's still for sale at Play Asia! But... £26 for a PS1 game? But it says.. Sasaki Isao, Mizuki Ichirou, Horie Mitsuko! oh.... well, £26 is a bargain, then!!
