In 1982, Koplar teamed with Jack Galmiche and Frank Babcock to produce three nationally syndicated shows featuring Kickboxing.

The shows were produced and distributed nationally from St Louis, Las Vegas, and New York's Madison Square Garden.

In 1983, while attending a science fiction convention, Ted Koplar discovered the anime series Beast King GoLion and saw a potential in distributing it on U.S. television.

In 1988, the company released Denver, the Last Dinosaur, which was met with positive feedback from parents' groups and was recommended by the National Education Association.

World Events Productions settled a legal dispute with Toei Animation in 2010 over copyright infringements of a potential live-action Voltron movie.

The most recent legal issues between the two companies focus on WEP's right to adapt the anime into live-action and possibly marketing it in Japan.
