Production stills from the film - not commonly seen. Probably the work of photographer Ken Sax.

In these images Dolph/He-Man appears to swing across the set from the opposite side to that which appears in the released version

I've rarely seen that much coverage for a non-US release, the news has been picked up by many sites...

[Jamesflavell]

You know, you are absolutely right. A niche Aussie release - splattered all over the internet in the US, UK, EU and even (so I'm told) Latin America. Remarkable!

Clearly there's still significant interest in the film, even after all this time.
Maybe it's a reaction to the slew of Hollywood superhero movies (and their unsubtle stress on modernist political agendas ...... )

Anyway, mine's on order for April.

I wouldn't call Umbrella a small or niche label anymore. They've been releasing a lot of well known titles with deluxe packaging for a good while now. I believe they even breached out to America last year with some titles.
