Nico_guyver Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 hi there. im new to the site so firstly hello, secondly just want ask doe sanyone know of any websites that sell the guyver films and/or the guyver anime? i have looked on the internet but loads do not ship to the u.k. and im am just unsure which series to buy of the guyver anime ones, theres so many different types out, im not sure which follow on from which (want to make sure i get the right ones that follow on) help would be much appreciated in this matter many thanks nico Quote
Sully Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Hi Nico, Best place in terms of ease is Amazon.com, just type in Guyver at the search and you'll find it easilly enough. As for the Live Action movies, the first one is one that you should only watch after seeing everything else that is Guyver. Has it's only something best described benny Hill meets the Power Rangers. The second one is much better (aka Dark Hero) and it covers the main points of the first movie. But it's not a modren film, still fun if you don't take it too serously with it's long fights. For the anime the new version is easy to spot on Amazon.com. It's from Adv Films and is the best version for a new fan too see. After you've seen that if you're feeling that you'd like to see an older attempt at the Guyver anime try the ones from Manga if you can still get them. But word of warning, the Manga series is a lot shorter and will never be continued again. Don't bother ordering Guyver: Out of Control from Amazon has they never ship it. It's another alternative version of the Guyver and one change is Guyver 2 is now a woman. For that which again is something only a serious fan can find and really want as it's a pain in the ass to get and normally ebay is the only place you can get it easily if you wait a month or so, it'll show up. VHS is the only ligit form this ever came out on in the US and for that you'll need a video recorder with NTSC playback. Just remember all DVD from the States are region 1, so you'll need to hack or get a multi-region DVD player. Good luck, and welcome to the messageboard. Quote

Just make sure that they are from AVD. The other parts will be out later in the year. http://www.amazon.com/Guyver-Greg-Paik/ ... UTF8&s=dvd It's called "The Guyver" on Amazon.com and has a cut of Guyver's head and Mark Hamill's face. you've been warned, I recommend reading the reviews if you're seiously considering buying it.

largo Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 Hey its not that bad if you're in to b movies, but you gotta admit that the costume designs are sweet. Quote
Nico_guyver Posted February 21, 2007 Author Posted February 21, 2007 yeah me. my bro and my cousin must have been about 8 when we first saw it, guyver was and is my hero lol anyone else see them when at a younger age? Quote
largo Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Wow did everybody see the original guyver movies when they were like 7 - 10 or is it just me. Quote
Juggernought Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 First time i saw that movie i was like 11 and i was sittin in my parents room after church and it came on the sci-fi channel...altho i didnt know what the hell it was and i only caught it at the part when sean first called on it in the warehouse...needless to say after that defining moment i was hooked but never saw it again on tv and couldn't even find it in the movie store as no one knew about it. Didn't have my own computer either so that was out..It's all gud now Quote
xtro guyver Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 I remember seeing Dark hero on scifi years ago, though didn't see the first movie till a few years ago when Sully made me watch it, oh god the horror funny enough I have both films on dvd, the first one is worth owning so you can scare the fans who have not seen it before Quote
Nico_guyver Posted February 28, 2007 Author Posted February 28, 2007 just to let you all know since my post i have bo0ught both films off ebay, number 1 for 10 quid and number 2 for 7 quid. just waiting til pay day so i can get the anime dvds cant wait!!!!!!!! Quote
largo Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Well Nico you can just go to your local anime provider to get the anime since Manga still makes the 12ep series. Quote
Matt Bellamy Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 Well Nico you can just go to your local anime provider to get the anime since Manga still makes the 12ep series. The Manga video DVD release of the 12 part OAV has been discontinued I am afraid. And has been for quite some time. You can still find it in some places, but they are not printing anymore copies.

largo Posted February 28, 2007 Posted February 28, 2007 They have it at the FYE at the mall near my house and I'm pretty sure that you can get it at manga.com? I can't believe that they would discontenue it. Quote
