Original Japanese B5-size movie flyer for the 1957 science fiction film The Mysterians (地球防衛軍 / Chikyū Bōeigun), produced by Toho.
Directed by Ishirō Honda with special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya and music by Akira Ifukube, this film was a landmark production—Toho’s first collaboration of this team presented in both color and widescreen TohoScope format.
The story centers on an alien race known as the Mysterians, whose home planet was destroyed by nuclear war. After arriving on Earth, they demand land and seek to intermarry with humans to ensure their survival, leading to escalating global conflict and a unified international response.
The film stars Kenji Sahara, Yumi Shirakawa, Momoko Kōchi, and Akihiko Hirata.
A key highlight is the debut of Moguera, the giant robotic mole-like machine used by the Mysterians, which became an iconic element of Toho’s science fiction and kaiju legacy. The film also stands out for its theme of international cooperation, depicting global powers uniting against a common extraterrestrial threat.
Presented in a new B5 frame, this original flyer is ready for display and represents an important piece of early tokusatsu cinema history—ideal for collectors of Toho films, kaiju memorabilia, and vintage Japanese movie advertising.
