With ImaginAsian TV's TMS Anime Classics first run doing well, what should IaTV pick up next?

[LordGeo]

Justin Sevakis has said that IaTV's TMS Anime Classics has sold surprisingly well, about what Justin himself was hoping to sell. He also said that there will probably be a continuation of the line if all keeps going well.

ImaginAsian TV does have a panel at the upcoming Anime Festival, there could be a chance that their next batch of TMS Classics could be announced.

For those who want a list of TMS animes, here's two listings over at ANN:

TMS Entertainment:

Tokyo Movie Shinsa (TMS for short):
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/ency...any.php?id=455

Anyway, like when IaTV first announced their plans to release older TMS animes, let's start guessing again; maybe one will be announced at NYAF.

I'll start:
Ashita no Joe 2 (Ashita no Joe 1 was not animated by TMS though, so this might not happen at all...)
God Mazinger
Rokushin Gattai God Mars (TV and movie; the movie could use a re-release)
Tetsujin 28 FX (FX is from 1992 though, so it might not be eligible for the Classics line; what IS the cut-off point/year for Classics anyway?)

And one that would REALLY be pushing it:
B't X (Liscence rescue it from Illumitoon, and include their dub as an extra Orguss-style)

These are the Series I want them to get:

1.) Flanders no Inu, Boku no Patrasche*
2.) Ganba no Boken (TV & Movie)
3.) Lady Georgie*
4.) Ochame na Futago (The Mischievous Twins)
5.) Ace wo Nerae!

*The ones I want the most

Given there's a dub for the 1990's Tetsujin series that aired on the Scifi Channel, someone really should release that on DVD. I imagine though, it all depends on which shows they own the proper rights to [vs. ones that might be controlled by production partners]

Hopefully the rest of Cat's Eye.

I'll be happy with:

1. Cat's Eye Season 2
2. Space Adventure Cobra TV & Movie
3. Ulysses 31- I have vague memories of watching this one as a kid, so I wouldn't mind seeing it again.

Pretty much exactly what akcoll said, though I haven't seen any of Ulysses for myself.

I was a little worried about the future of the Anime Classics because Justin Sevakis seems to work full time for ANN now, and just part time at ImaginAsian - but we'll see what happens. I hope for the best.

The show I'd like the most is Space Adventure Cobra.

[slerch666]

1) Ginga Tetsudo 999/Galaxy Express 999 TV
2) Uchuu Kaizoku Kyaptin Herlock/Space Pirate Captain Herlock TV
3) Sennen Joo/Queen Millennium TV

And how about:

1) Mazinger Z
2) Great Mazinger
3) UFO Robo Grendizer

All my choices are Toei masterpieces from the 70s and a little way into the 80s.

And God Mazinger? Uhm... as much as I love Mazinger, I really don't think that's the best use of IATV's resources.

Yeah, I heard that it's not really great, maybe good at most, but it still interests me out of the "Classics" TMS has.

I would have also said Red Baron, since that sounds interesting also, but it's a mid-90s show, so IATV probably wouldn't pick it up for the Classics line; even Tetsujin 28 FX is pushing it...
