After the tragic destruction of Planet Mount, a fresh class of space sheriff trainees are dispatched to push back the Fuuma threat.

The Space Sheriff Trilogy comes to an explosive conclusion in this action-packed tokusatsu spectacle! Straight from the barrel of Shaider's Video Beam Gun, the Metal Hero series' third entry blazes its way onto Blu-ray! This complete collection includes all 49 episodes of the Blue Flash's battle to save the galaxy - presented in high definition with the original Japanese language and English subtitles!

Dallos: Complete OVA Series
Description: Shun Nonomura is a young man out of Monopolis, a sprawling miner's colony on the lunar surface. His people mine helium-3 and other essentials for the Earth - but in the late 21st century, Earth's resources are depleted and the planetary government has resorted to authoritarian rule to get what they want. As the put-upon miners, including Shun's own family and friends, start to organize a revolt, they come under attack from Earth's new lunar commander: Alex Rigel, a military man unafraid to use force to put down the uprising! As Shun's idealism and Alex's chilly pragmatism clash, Monopolis is thrown into chaos. The last, best hope for victory lies within a mysterious alien artifact that the lunarians worship as a god - Dallos!
Released in four parts starting in December 1983, DALLOS is an early directorial effort by the great Mamoru Oshii (Ghost in the Shell, Patlabor), which made history as the first anime OVA (original video animation) ever created.
