One of the few illustrations made for “Seijushi Bismark” realized by Takane Yoshiyuki (高荷 義之), an illustrator, showing the male cast with Bismark's two forms as well as the city of Ganymede in the background. This illustration was used often to promote Bismark.
I couldn't find any info about Takane Yoshiyuki taking part to the production of Bismark... so he probably only realized this illustration as promotional material.
One of the few illustrations made for “Seijushi Bismark” realized by Sekiguchi Inoichirō (関口猪一郎), showing the boys fighting the Deathculas while Bismark is fighting a Deathcula Giant Mecha in the background.
This illustration appeared on TV Magazine (テレビマガジン) number of December 1984...
...as a background image for an article about Bismark...
... due to that month's theme being "Hero Robot gathering!" (ヒーロー・ロボット大集合!).
The Deathcula Giant Mecha seems to be the one Bismark fought against in Episode 3.
The cell of the original art was autographed, framed and sold.
Tagging any Star Sheriffs fans here - the German website yuma-city.de has gotten a big upgrade (yet keeping the 90’s nostalgia look) and has brought back their old forum section. (it’s not Yuma, AZ, but a Yuma City of Planet Yuma, somewhere far in the universe :D )
They also have a lovely section of fan art. I got my own page, too, yay! Check it out here.
This web is a treasure, it has been around from the SRaTSS fandom golden age. Though I can’t speak German either I’m delighted to see it living till now... I still mourn the loss of mine as well as many others that belonged to my friends...

Notes:
This double cd is a collection of popular themes from robot anime. Among its songs it has “Seijūshi Bismark” opening and ending.
Something else that can be of interest seems to be that, if you collect all the 3 double cds, you'll be able to put together a poster with all the robots on it.

Once upon a time, I used to have those links embedded in the side column of my blog.
However, due to Tumblr new policy banning http web addresses, I can’t link anymore webs which have address that aren’t “https”.
So, to make my life simple, I’m placing all those links in a post.
