From the desk of ska_lives:

“So, after preordering this about this time last year, I finally received my Captain Harlock figure from BBTS! For those not familiar with the character, the dude is a badass!

His original series is available for watch on one of the streaming networks..I think its HuluPlus. FHE also put out some edited VHS dubs of some of the older OVA adventures of the good captain, notably Revenge of the Space Pirate(good stuff). Also on top of this he appears in another series by his creator/ series direcctor(Leiji Matsumoto), called Galaxy Express 999. This was my first exposure to the character.

Through 999( Three9)’s two OVA films GE999 and Adieu Galaxy Express 999, you get a decent look into a small part of the universe in which Harlock inhabits. He has also had a spin off series for his love interest and fellow space pirate Queen Emeraldas. I do hope that they make a figure of her, I will buy the Hell out of it! In more recent years, I believe back in 2006? his series was rebooted as Captain Herlock, same character, same general story, goofy name translation. Then earlier this year or late last year, he was given the feature length CGI film treatment, and that depiction is what the figure is based on.

I know that this intro is a bit slap dash, but for the amount of mythos around him, I recommend watching the series that he is in and reading the wiki.

Without further ado, the figure!”
