Yes 'n no... I've passed the files on to my friend, but time and logistics still need to be worked out. I'm confident that it will happen, but I wouldn't dare to suggest a time frame! Sooner than never?
Bad news, good news... My friend had to drop out of the project - pregnant wife trumps translation favor -but just today I found another interested party. Again, I'm sure this will take time, but he seems pretty gung-ho about it - he translates tokus for fun and already owns the Bullmark box!
Yeah, thanks a lot for sticking on this David. I really appreciate it (and the ongoing Q updates). I know a lot of us are really interested and excited for it, and I am glad there are helpful and dedicated people out that are willing to help sate our appetites.
I haven't talked to the guy in a few weeks but I'll try to check in with him tomorrow. The DVD is fairly short - the doc is around a half hour and there's about a minute and a half of old commercials before it.
I may be misreading it, but it looks like it is back up for sale on the Bullmark site http://www.bullmark.co.jp/shopdetail/001000000001/001/O/page1/order/ Does anybody have the video files from the DVD in their possession? I don't mind if they are without subs
Hopefully! I'm sure a handful of board members have this DVD.. If you're unsure of how to rip it into a digital file, this program is very easy to use. http://www.dvdshrink.org/
Ugh, I'm hunting for my fourth translator now! The second guy turned out to be a total flake, and the third fellow ended up overwhelmed with perfectly understandable real-world this and that. This has been a frustrating process. Sorry, Geek.
Maybe we should all just pitch in and get a real fucking translator to do it. It's not like we're broke...
Hahaha, aren't we? Last time I went to the bank for a loan to pay off the student debt, they [surprisingly] didn't recognise vinyl monster toys as collateral.
Har! Well, fuck the banks...but in return for getting a translated History Box DVD (and maybe some of the other promotional materials), I think it'd be worth eBaying a figure or two to get some scratch to throw in a pot!
I'll be getting a copy on DVD later on this week.. Hopefully I'll have it uploaded to Youtube by the weekend for everybody (untranslated)
Huge thanks goto spacemonkey66 for sending me the files earlier this week! This is untranslated but still a really cool video to watch, taking you through each step of production at Bullmark. Hopefully at some point we can get subtitles together.. until then or when Youtube removes this please enjoy!
This is fantastic Glenn-big thanks for posting. I need to pick up one of these boxes, they look to be be well worth the duckets.
