TH-cam, I need you to go ahead and actually SHOW these videos to people. This stuff is fascinating and way too few people are seeing it. Kindly fix that ASAP.
Thanks so much for the further info about the film and its production circumstances and context. Not taking away anything from Phelous' work on this, btw, but am glad to see and hear more info about it and the context in which it was made.
As a Transformers fan, this kinda reminds me of how the Transformers franchise started, although with Transformers everything was licensed, of course: Hasbro united toys from toylines and other franchises like Diaclone (most of the early vehicles, such as Optimus Prime, Starscream, Ratchet, Silverbolt, the Constructicons, etc., as well as the Dinobots and Insecticons), Microchange (Bumblebee, Megatron, Soundwave, Blaster, Perceptor, etc.), Macross (Jetfire; the VF-1S-based Jetfire is my favorite version of him and I wish they could make toys of that version again, or at least a decent third-party toy decoed like him), Dorvack (Whirl and Roadbuster), Beetras (the Deluxe Insecticons), and even a few independent toys (Shockwave, Skylynx, Omega Supreme, etc.) into a single narrative, taking what were usually mecha built and piloted by humans and turning them into autonomous alien robots with their own personalities. It worked so well that eventually (I think around the time the '86 movie came out) Hasbro and Takara started making molds SPECIFICALLY FOR Transformers toys and a whole bunch of new Transformers continuities followed in later years: Beast Wars, the Unicron Trilogy, Bayformers, Animated, the Aligned Universe, Cyberverse, the new movies, EarthSpark... I can only wonder what could have happened if Our Friend Power 5 was able to do the same.
That was excellent!!! As a long-time collector of anime robot toys, Korean bootlegs have always been a fascinating mystery. Thank you for thoroughly presenting the nuts-and-bolts behind so many of them!
I feel like had Playmates found out about this, they wouldve just copied the turtles piloting robots idea over. Especially at this point as in the mid 90s they had done a similar thing with Takaras Diaclone toy line by reusing some of the vehicles from that.
Never heard of Our Friend Power Five until I saw the Phelous and the Movies review of the film. I love TMNT, I can say that I'm in love with '87 April O'Neil, but this was a trip.
The art of combining animated action shots and live-action performances isn't new, of course. The original Superman movie serials of the 1940s also used cell animation for their action shots (particularly Superman flying), and it worked fairly well. Of course, nowadays, we use the exact same method for the Superman movies, only today's animation is all CGI. Your judgment on what is more acceptable to you. Never heard of this Korean movie before, but it actually looks very well done for what they spent on it. Still rather impressive.
4:06 I knew when I watched Phelous's video on this that I recognized this robot, too, but I couldn't put my finger on it. My brain was constantly like "IT'S BRAIGAR!" when I knew for a fact it was NOT Braigar. I guess my brain knew it was one of the J9 bots, just not which one.
My nerdy ass immediately recognizing at 3:10 that those brown mechs are based on the Acguy mobile suit from Mobile Suit Gundam and the green one right after is a mobile armor called a Grabro
Knowing that these turtles were aliens, this goes back to that infamous Michael Bay's ALIEN NINJA TURTLES idea he wanted to do and thanks to the power of fandom... it never got lit, so this is an example of what not to do.
Figured this would get the "Deja-View" treatment. Great stuff. I remember playing the "Phelous" review of this movie in the background from time to time and catching glimpses of it. This movie really is...something to behold. Also there was a board game based on this movie?
Ah yes, I tried watching this movie a while back and found it entertaining (unwatchable tho) the costume design is kind of amazing tho edit: holy shit the toys r crazy
Not to sound rude, but the use of upscaled our freind power five footage is super jarring and just dosent look good, idk if you noticed the artificial detail added in over shots of foliage or grass. upscaled footage, upscaling as a whole just looks bad, you'd be better off using a normal encode.
Thanks for the interest! This was the last episode of the series, but I do cover the whole story behind the Turkish Exorcist in my book: amzn.to/3kKeWlz
I can’t believe master splitter was an enemy to the turtles

Thanks so much! My hope is that it makes a worthwhile companion piece to Phelan's hilarious videos.
@@NeonHarbor You're welcome, and I believe that it makes a worthy companion piece to his videos on this.
its great to see you guys upload again!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
@@NeonHarborIs there imatation of Airplane flying high.?
I'm a bit late to watch these new episodes but I'm very glad you returned to this show, hopefully not for the last time :)

this was so wacky and bonkers, thank you for this!
Yeah, they reused those Gobots Power Suits a few times, too, sometimes with various chogokin robots piloting them.

I hope we get to see more Korean knockoffs on this channel in the future. Lots of crazy stuff that's legitimately interesting.
Unfortunately this is the last episode for the foreseeable future.
I'd gladly sit through some of these than even half of the CGI TMNT reboot.

The backstory of these Turtles sounds more similar to the backstory of the Biker Mice from Mars!

Haha! Good eye! There's also an MS-07B Gouf and Ideon from Legendary Giant God Ideon.

Strangely, Michael Bay was planning to make the Turtles aliens in his movie as well at one point.

Yep! th-cam.com/video/xFq2WhVKqTI/w-d-xo.html
Another smashing video, guys!
I feel like I'd seen a review of this movie before on a different channel.
Phelous reviewed a few years ago
I know this Movie because Phelous reviewed that.
Ah yes, I tried watching this movie a while back and found it entertaining (unwatchable tho) the costume design is kind of amazing tho
edit: holy shit the toys r crazy
this was amazing.
Can you do a Deja View episode on the Taiwanese knock off Dragon Ball Film "Dragon Ball: The Magic Begins" that would be really cool and interesting
That's very interesting 🤩👍
Why is this the final episode?
I'm not gonna lie Korea bootleg movies remind me more of Chinese bootleg knock offs that they produce
Can you review the Turkish version of The exorcist

No, I totally get it. It was a tough call and the best choice probably would have been to mix and match, but I decided to just call it done.
