Short documentary included in the Highlander: The Search for Vengeance DVD. An interesting look at the process of bringing this American franchise over to Japan and gives a good idea at what it took to see it through to completion. Along the same lines there is an interview with Director Yoshiaki Kawajiri where he talks about his experience with working on the picture.

In the spring of 1984, a strange new comic book sat beside cash registers in select shops, too big to fit in the racks, and too weird to ignore. Eastman and Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles presented a completely original breed of super hero. It was too bizarre, too crazy. It broke all the rules and should never have worked. Until it sold out. Again and again and again. For 30 years. Now, peek under the shell and see how this so-called "happy accident" defied every naysayer to become one of the most popular and beloved franchises in the world.
