Megaman 1995 cartoon
Is there any chance Shout Factory will get the rights to and release the Megaman cartoon from the mid 1990's. Megaman has been around for over 20 years, but the dvd's are hard to find.

as far as I know ADV Films still have the rights to that show and I think they have discontinued publishing the DVDs for it. It is unlikely that they will produce any more and most unlikely that they will ever give up the rights to the show. Sorry to burst your bubble. BMHedgehog

ADV is now Defunct since late 2009 Mega Man rights probably want to WB since it was a Ruby Spears show. It probably will never be released again til your old and gray. Til this day I'm still waiting for the rest of the smurfs what's taking so damn long WB!. Here's the link to the ADV article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A.D._Vision

What are you talking about? Both seasons were re-released last year on dvd. You should be able to buy both copies easily.

Seeing as ADV is out of business, I wonder if the rights will revert back to another company. I hope Shout Factory can use this opportunity to release a "Complete Series" set of this show.

I bought "A Hero is Born" Vol. 1 a long time ago. I never got a chance to buy "Battle for the Future" Vol. 2. And now it's rather expensive, going for over 60 bucks for a used copy. And it seems that during the Re-release period, the re-release of Vol. 2 never came out.

I'd LOVE for this show to get picked up.
