Merry Christmas, Jayrath! Thank you so very much for your contributions to this forum.

Allow me to also add my season's greetings to a member of the cast of one of the more popular reboots of "Astroboy"! Here's something you may not know! While it is true that the version of "Astroboy" in which you took part did better in Australia, it did air briefly in the U.S.A. In 1986, one of the stations that did air the official English version (coordinated by Tezuka Pro. & Japan's NTV) of the 1980s "Astroboy" was WTGI--channel 61 broadcasting out of Philadelphia and covering the Philadelphia-Wilmington, Delaware area which also included parts of New Jersey! WTGI was at that time a local UHF channel and aired "Astroboy" weekdays @ 10:30 am. Unfortunately because WTGI no longer exists as it did back in the eighties (having been sold several times), records of what was broadcast only briefly on that channel are hard to come by! (I fortunately have a copy of an episode of "Astroboy" clearly showing the WTGI call letters and a copy of TV Guide from 1986, which also happens to be the Philadelphia edition and shows the listing of "Astroboy" @ 10:30 am, weekdays! So I hope you are working on an article of your experience as a voice actor on "Astroboy", as I am sure there is interest in it, especially from your many fans at this forum! Happy Holidays!
