A Paid Advertisement.  Nearly 25 years after its U.S. debut, the Science Ninja Team is ready to win over a new generation of collectors with the release of Diamond Select Toys and Collectibles' Battle of the Planets Series 1 Action Figures!

A true classic, Battle of the Planets -- a.k.a. Gatchaman, a.k.a. G-Force -- has recently benefited from a gigantic push from its licensor, revitalization thanks to the DVD market, and award-winning creator Alex Ross signing on as the creative heart of Top Cow Productions' Battle of the Planets comics series.  The series' popularity hasn't diminished one bit -- as retailers will quickly learn for themselves when consumers come into their stores looking for these highly detailed figures of Mark, Princess and Keyop!

Sculpted by Gabriel Marquez, each of these 7'-scale, articulated figures comes packaged with the character's trademark weapon and a bonus mini-PVC of their G-Force vehicle (sculpted by SOTA).  Arriving in stores on August 21, these are three collectibles that no Battle of the Planets fan will want to miss! Plus, Series 2 -- featuring Jason, Tiny, and Zoltar -- will be coming in a few months!
