Usagi on Hawaii 5-0

Post by Stan Sakai »

We were asked for permission to use Usagi books and merchandise as background on a Hawaii 5-0 episode. The scene takes place at Other Realms Comics and Games in Honolulu. I'm not sure how much Usagi, if any, will be on TV. It depends upon editing. However, the legal department likes Usagi.

The episode is scheduled to air November 30. I won't be able to see it, though. I will be a judge for the Temecula Festival of Lights parade that night.

If Inspector Ishida isn't somehow a prominent part of this episode I'll consider it a missed opportunity. :P

I saw a couple of Usagi related items last night. Both times they were out of focus. :( Valiant received a lot of product placement and I think I saw Walt Simonson's Ragnarok.

Thanks for posting screen shots, Gaffey. I don't have cable tv and only subscribe Amazon Prime so it's cool to see your photos. Peace, maka
