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.

I just noticed it’s also - so a third title too. One might be OK, two at a push, but three is going a little far. That the later seasons are (obviously) slightly more recent releases implies slightly more value, and although £4 per title is pretty good, these do include older ones that have...

Not sure how I feel about seeing S2 titles in a mystery bundle. Having said that; the only ‘rule’ specified is “no half sets” (but that’s a rarity from MVM anyway). AtA seem to have certain rules for theirs, although we seem to be expecting more than is actually published on the listings, so I...

It’s probably worth reminding people that vouchers don’t work with baskets containing BOGOF items. Not even the non-sale ANIMEUNLIMITED (if paid-up subscriber) that is supposed to be for the entire store. Ad also that the shipping thresholds are calculated post-discount. So a £55 basket will...

According to my email at 12:02pm today, “12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS SALE STARTS NOW 🎁” So the email system thought the same.

It could be slightly different these days, as we can see from the packing list that ‘mystery box’ items are simply a pre-set list that gets picked (unlike the actual ‘packed’ boxes of years past). Which means there’s the possibility that depleting stock of one would deplete the stock of the...

I’m most curious as to the clearance box. It’s something of the biggest risk for those of us who pick up the ‘standard’ boxes each year, and a bigger risk if you buy the sale items anyway. If you mean the Gankutsuou steelbook, I think that was a last chance item that sold out last time round.

Wouldn’t they likely be unavailable for full price too then? Otherwise there’s the risk that some people who order S2 end up tapping the stock of the higher priced S1.

Yeah; I also took the announcement as being midday. My bank account yesterday thought this might be an Xmas when I didn’t punish it. Then I went on a spending frenzy about 4 hours earlier than I expected. I’m not too optimistic about the mystery boxes, but stuck a couple in anyway. Probably...
