According to an article posted in alt.tv.sentai Chaiyo Productions, along with 2 other companies, is producing an Ultraman series for sale outside Japan.
This article claims the Japanese courts gave the rights to Ultraman outside Japan to Chaiyo.

TPC has taken them back to court, and Chaiyo does NOT have any rights outside Thailand, no matter what they say.
just ask John Cassidy!

Unfortunately this is true. TPC is appealing the case, but the Japanese courts unbeliavably sided with Chaiyo! The upcoming original series discs are liscensed from Chaiyo, so we won't be seeing the spectacular new prints TPS struck for the dvd release in japan, or any of the extras they prepared. I saw a trailer for the Chaiyo series and that at least looks good. The FX actually looked as good as TPC's and the new Ultracharacters are well designed. Still, I'll have a problem supporting the show. I just can't believe that 2 courts, especially the Japanese courts sided with Chaiyo on this!
