Toy Robot Video is a subsidiary of Arrow Video. The company launches this September with a cult-tastic slate. The release is led by Guyver: Dark Hero. Get the details here.
Toy Robot Video are proud to announce the launch of a temptingly-priced slate of cult-tastic titles on Blu-ray this September, including ninja mayhem, a brand new slasher, kung-fu comedy action and a Blu-ray debut for a superhero classic.
The new label – a subsidiary of Arrow Video – aims to recreate the wondrous experience of browsing titles at the local video store – except this time they’re yours to own and cherish, with fabulous new cover artwork, film masters transferred from the best elements available, colourfully-branded OBI-Strips, slip cards, art cards, and extras – and at pocket money prices, so you’ll have money left over for snacks!
MIKE HEWITT
Toy Robot Video’s Mike Hewitt commented:
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of a new home entertainment video label across the UK, US and Canada. With a resurgent interest in Physical Media, especially amongst younger film fans, Toy Robot Video is intended to be a fun and inclusive label, designed to complement our core Arrow Video brand, spreading the joy of physical media ownership outside the boundaries of cult fans and cineastes. Toy Robot Video will deliver an expansive variety of content, incorporating a range of mainstream titles and genres – with more comedy and even animation. We couldn’t be more pleased with our launch titles, including a 4K UHD release of 1987’s Masters of the Universe in the US and Canada, and we are incredibly excited about our forthcoming slate for the remainder of 2026 and beyond.”
