Trying to Identify a Tricky Font Used in a 1989 English Production of an Anime Title by Harmony Gold USA

Featured Replies

Recently, five episodes of a rare 1989 English adaptation of the anime Dragon Ball by Harmony Gold USA were uncovered on wobbly VHS tapes. Attached are the five title cards. I'm trying to get these fonts identified for the purposes of a digital restoration and reconstruction of the production using HD sources, rotoscoping, and fonts. Whether it's commercial or free, it doesn't matter, as I'm looking for the exact fonts used. I really appreciate your help in advance!

Will have to create my own font using that template.

I found that there is an old digitisation floating around (albeit with the wrong |S|), called Mumbo Display, but could not find a reputable source for downloading or purchasing it.
