| The theatrical
pamphlet for the 1989 feature Gunhed is slightly
larger than the standard issue release, and puts those
extra pages to good use. For a pamphlet, this publication
is surprisingly in depth on the movie, covering both aspects
of the story and the film's production. These include:
a detailed look at the Gunhed mech, a schematic of the
Kyron 5 facility, a look behind the scenes at the special
effects, a lyric transcript of the song "Time"
and a very interesting eight page story synopsis that
takes its approach by focusing on the many floors of the
Kyron complex. The pamphlet also includes detailed biographies
on director Masato Harada, special effects director Koichi
Kawakita and the movie's lead stars: Masahiro
Takashima and Brenda
Bakke. In terms of images, the book is packed with
a lot of beautiful production stills, almost all of which
are in color, while the publication also has several giant
displays of the stills through out.
