Honored to have had the Little Astro Boy thread mentioned in that article. Sadly, we and some Astro Boy fans on Tumblr are the only ones that really documented Little Astro Boy's existence outside of some announcement threads back in January 2014 and the occasional article like this one.

Great article by Mike Toole. I agree with him in hoping that we get the much-deserved international release of Little Astro Boy in the future.

I was also kind of surprised that he didn't mention Astro Boy Reboot in the article, but to be fair, there's not much info out there about it at the moment. I did see that someone brought it up in the discussion thread for that article over on the ANN forums. Perhaps I'll go and bring it up over there as well.

EDIT: I also found the tidbit about the Star of the Giants vs Astro Boy 1969 special to be interesting. It makes me wonder how many other artifacts like that are sitting around at Tezuka Productions' offices.
