Your imagination is all you really need
When you start believing love is just a kiss away

I was thinking more about this. It's a shame they only used a short part of it in the movie.

It was mentioned that Bandai's plan is to have a relatively unbroken line of Gundam animated projects leading up to the 50th anniversary in 2029 and there are rumours the next will be the Urdr Hunt movie. Urdr Hunt was a mobile game tie in to Gundam IBO that got massively delayed and was basically DOA. Autumn marks the 10th anniversary of IBO, so it'd be interesting if this is the third Gundam theatrical AL are involved with (ignoring the ones limited to MCM/SLA).

Looks like Bleach Part 5 is shipping for people. The first box will soon be complete...

Naruto set 3 is up for pre-order!

 

[cfx]

It's now May, and AL still doesn't have the Crunchyroll preorders for May and beyond up yet.

 

[Takei Daloui]

Another Naruto set down. 1 more I think for the whole series?
I wouldn't be surprised if after this they push to Shippuden.

Yea there’s one CE set left that’ll take it to the end (episode 220). All filler episodes excepting the latter parts of 220 so I’m in no rush to get that set when it comes.

I also hope we get some idea of Shippuden plans this year - I imagine they won’t do another singular box to house the entire series as if they follow Viz’ release structure it’ll be 18 sets/9 collector’s editions. Could do several potentially like they’ve done so with Bleach.

I've heard that the Shippuden sets may follow a set up similar to how they have handled BLEACH releases.

That makes sense considering the number of releases Shippuden is likely to have.

Tower of god ultimate edition arrived damaged, my luck lately seems to be quite poor with AL even though packaging seems ok stuff keeps arriving damaged

Yeah my tower of god could have been in better condition, a few dents, I suspect there warehouse storage isn't as good as it used to be as well as it being pretty thin outer card rather than the thicker art box on CE/LE.

But I did have a few other CE come with the odd minor dent, so maybe more just there storage/ warehouse/packaging team/company, but that just speculation on my part.

I’d say lately half of my AL orders come with damage it’s sad they used to be really good I’m gonna put it down to bad luck for now

Hey @Hanners @teetoni do you know when vol 6 of bleach will be available for pre-order?

 

[HellCat]

According to the app, there will be 2 AL panels at MCM London- an industry panel on Saturday and a Macross one on Sunday.

I should be covering the former but not the latter. No fanboy shtick here, got a family wedding that Sunday.

I'll be missing both, as for the first one, I'll be getting my trains back home at around 5:30pm (I'll be leaving sometime after the Toku Power Taisen meet-up), and for the second one, I won't even be at MCM as I only booked tickets for Saturday.
