Banana Splits: They Are Here!

Available · one owner only

Archive note

A VHS home video release from Vista and Sunshine Broadcast featuring the Banana Splits—Fleegle, Bingo, Drooper, and Snorky—rendered in Japanese packaging design. The poster suggests an alternate-history Japanese television broadcast or tape distribution of the Hanna-Barbera characters, complete with katakana title treatment and domestic market positioning. Collectors of lost international media variants and 1970s children's television ephemera will recognize this as evidence of a global licensing moment that may have taken a different path.
