posted on by Egan Loo
Bandai Visual USA announced at FanimeCon 2007 that it has licensed the Gunbuster vs. Diebuster: Aim for the Top Gattai Movie for release in North America. The 2006 movie "combines" (the English translation for the Japanese word gattai) footage (with some enhancements and new additions) from the original 1988 Gunbuster: Aim for the Top! space adventure video series with the 2004 Gunbuster 2: Aim for the Top! video series. Both video series had been licensed by Bandai Visual USA. Update: Bandai Visual USA says its DVD release will include the same Noriko and Nono figures the Japanese version did. It is working on a possible theatrical release. Thanks, Kimidori.E
