I now realise your approach was “£20 x 2 = good” while my approach was “Why is it in two halves in the first place?” And you’re not surprised by it being in two halves, while I’m thinking the “lower” cost is more “normal”.

Yes, you’re correct. Should have scrolled down and not just read the sales spiel. I blame the Xmas sales for depriving me of sleep.

I thought you were the one clued-up on Gundam. Meanwhile there are people like me who do a double-take. If you’re not invested, it’s pretty off-putting. Standard editions are for the sane(r) people.

If it’s in a mystery box, some will probably flog it to CEX, but that likely means another month or two at the earliest. CEX usually being a good guid to expected value. And CEX only seem to list the standard version for £22 + £3p&p (so they’ll probably be mixed in with that stock). Then RM...

If you want some bullet-pointy displeasure analysis, then… Positives: I’d suggest it’s a pretty good price for the comprehensive 11-discs of NGE media. This is the “full” set of 11 discs, not the cut-down 5-disc release. If you want a set that fits your shelf, you’re after something like this...

Seconding this query, as I am curious. The MVM stuff gets sent out quickly, so I’m sure someone’s got it by now. As it’s restricted to the clearance range, I know I’ve got them all so won’t be looking to order.

Just in case anyone didn’t expect this to be continuing during the Xmas stuff, MVMs current DOTW for £7.99 (plus postage): KATSUGEKI TOUKEN RANBU COLLECTION (15) BLU-RAY https://www.anime-on-line.com/Katsugeki-Touken-Ranbu/30433-katsugeki-touken-ranbu-collection-15-blu-ray-5060067008307.html...

In a way, I’m glad it’s a flash sale item then. I like it enough to have ordered last time on offer - not really wanting to risk it selling out sometime. And it has to be said; that’s pretty good value for not only a steelbook, but with a soundtrack included.

That implies one is/was either combined or cancelled. But experience and expectation: 😉 a) They’re not good at counting at the best of times. b) It’s something else to get cocked up. c) That isn’t necessarily the current (latest) state. d) Even if AtA don’t change anything, something will go...

My (almost completely guesswork) “missing flash sale day” inference was that the four 4K titles we saw on the 5th we’re originally intended to span two days. If not 2+2, then possibly the Slam Dunk on a different day. Having four titles in a “flash sale” seems a bit of a deviation from norm...

I was thinking something similar: Getting a delivery half-way round the world, and through whatever customs at each side. All before those of us in the same country have even had theirs considered for dispatch. (I just know the fulfilment centre each day keeps taking a look at the size my order...

To clear things up; the UE is entirely A4 sized (or slightly larger, all sliding into a stiff card outer box) - both the massively thick and heavy hardback storyboard book and the “companion” book are A4. There’s no disc case to sit alongside a smaller book (instead using the ‘usual’ foam hub in...

Dang it. I feel guilty now!

I learned something. I think. :) I’ll forget it again soon enough. I’d find that incredibly annoying. But I’m not (yet) any form of captive Gundam fan - I’ve got a shelf-and-a-half of Gundam titles from AL, but haven’t watched a single series yet. In this case, it turns out I have indeed got...

The online store text uses “demon-boy” in the same synopsis. It’s just lack of proof-reading on one or the other. And if we’re looking at episode runtimes, try Deiji Meets Girl. That’s 12 episodes for a total of 24 minutes.

@usnapoleon is perfectly correct, though: It’s been out long enough that most people willing to pay the higher prices to guarantee a copy will have done so. Likewise, most of the rest will have bought their standard editions. It was originally going to be a single set, before AL took over the...

@SkwigglesWorth I’m not sure how or what has happened, but the prices for the MVM bundles in the first post are incorrect (aside from the pot luck). They should all be either £9.99 or £19.99, but the table seems to have randomly reallocated some pennies:

What’s with these Gundam Seed “collectors” sets, that have for some reason been split into two halves? One coming with the box, and the other just happens to be the missing Amaray to slot in with it… And to top it off; you can just bogof each pair for £20 instead (save £30) We’ve kinda had some...

Is there anything redeeming about that “Slam Dunk” title? I’m ok with some other ‘sports’ titles such as Tsurune or Megalobox or Blue Thermal (or Chidori etc), and likewise Initial D or such. But something related to (and focusing on) team sports and realism(?) sounds like a bit of a tedious...

You’re perfectly correct. I must offer my apologies. I was consciously thinking that if I posted a list, I’d ensure it was correctly hidden. But somehow failed to extend that train of thought.
