Time Patrol

About This Movie

Time Patrol (1985) is a curious piece from the Tatsunoko catalog, repurposed by Harmony Gold. The animation has that distinct 80s vibe — you know, a bit rough around the edges but charming in its own way. The pacing feels brisk, typical for that era, and it zips through various time periods with a lighthearted flair. Unlike the other Time Fighters films, it never saw a US release, which adds to its mystique. The themes around time travel are a bit shallow but fun, and the practical effects are interesting, especially considering the budget constraints. It’s not going to blow you away, but it has its quirks that make it worth a watch for collectors interested in how animation evolved during that time.

Unique adaptation of Tatsunoko's Time Bokan.Never released in the US, adding to its rarity.Notable for its distinct 80s animation style.
