Fondly remember this so took a look at the KS.... would have wanted the chipboard set ($55) and as I'm a scummy brit shipping is $30!!!
$85 on one 41min OVA is too rich for my blood unfortunately

So just pledge the $250 level - Then the $30 shipping won't feel quite so significant, lol... 
I will go for the $55 level myself - even though I will probably have little interest in this mecha OVA, I do like to support any Animeigo Kickstarters. At least the deluxe chipbox set isn't priced around $100 like in most anime Kickstarters.

For the basic edition, including shipping, that's about £40 for a short and fairly mediocre OAV. I think I'll stick with my VHS copy. It's nice to see they're putting a lot of effort into the restoration and presentation for the people who like Madox though.
