Technic Heroes in Spain

Technic Heroes installments began being released in Spain in 1982 with the release of Quest for the Masks in Spanish cinemas, under the title of Bionicle: La venida de los Toa.

The first TV series from the franchise to be aired was Galidor in 1984 on TVE 1.

Dubbing History
The Bionicle and Hero Factory films were the first Technic Heroes installments to be dubbed into Castilian Spanish, however there are two different dubs for their film installments. The original dubs were made from 1982-1995 in, however in 2004-2006 they were redubbed by the Estudios Magia company in the community. According to Yoko Matsushita, the reason why new dubs were made was due to low royalties with the original dubs' actors and that it was considered cheaper by her predecessor Shirou Matsushita to record the dubs there than in Barcelona.

Regarding the redubs, the Technic Heroes franchise has had two different dubbing eras: the original era of dubbing from 1982-1997 in Barcelona and 1998-present in La Rioja. Very few actors are shared between the periods other than Velibor Košar (who redubbed himself in both eras as his character of Boz Bo Petrovic) and Leopold Cerda (the dubbing actor for Antanico Matsushita, who moved from Barcelona to La Rioja in 2002, allowing him to reprise Antanico's roles).
