- The UK DVD box set of the entire series contains several alternative versions of several episodes:
- 'Battle of the Planets: The Movie', a 68 minute feature editing together several episodes onto one storyline: 'Attack of the Space Terrapin', 'Big Robot Gold Grab', 'Ghost Ship of Planet Mir' and the 'Invasion of Space Centre' episodes'. The G-Fore team's adventures here are all earthbound, and include scenes of violence and loss of life originally edited from the TV series. 7 Zark 7 is played by David Bret Egen instead of Alan Young.
- 'Mini Feature', a 40 minute short combining the 'Invasion of Space Centre' episodes. This feature includes violence and loss of life originally cut out of the TV series. It also includes an alternative character introduction separate from the TV series, and a new club version of the theme music.
- The episode 'Rescue of the Astronauts', with an additional character introduction, introduction sequence and the club version of the theme music.
- Re-released as G-Force: Guardians of Space (1987) with a different translation.
- This is an edited version of Gatchaman. They had to edit out several minutes of footage from each episode, due to graphic violence. As a result, the episodes were a few minutes short for syndication, so they had to add footage to make up for the footage that was cut out. Thus 7-Zark-7 was created to make up for the time shortages. He is not in the original Japanese series.
