I can see how some might find it silly and I know that A) not everyone likes them and B) AL have other considerations when it comes to these things but I echo this. It just doesn’t hit the same when it’s a amaray in a slip cover. (Also, more D-d-d-Digimon pls 🙏)

Thanks for the responses. Timing-wise it would have to be Glasgow for me anyway (assuming those dates don't shift). Although in my head I'd always thought Glasgow was the bigger one, possible just because it's AL's home turf. Hopefully there's still plenty of good stuff there.

So I’ve finally decided to stop being a grumpy recluse and planning to head to my first SLA this year. When do they usually start announcing stuff? Any tips for time/cost saving would also be appreciated please and thank you.

It's just gone out to buy milk...

I'm sure it's the associated Miku brand but it really boggles my mind that the only AL film my local Odeon has chosen to show in the past few years is Colourful Stage, a spinoff of a mobile game that assumes an audience with at least some familiarity with the source material.

Why haven't you released X yet? 🤔

Is 5PM today the last flash deal?

Ah yes, I love my 40 mile drive to the Trafford Centre to see literally anything AL distribute. (I know it's not entirely on them but it is always frustrating nevertheless)

On a positive note, finally managed to get a not overpriced copy of Perfect Blue 4K from the stock AL clawed back from Amazon. On the downside for anyone else who was after it; I seem to have grabbed the last copy.

I don’t think I’ll get it but my dream would be a Digimon Adventure Ultimate edition. All the usual bells and whistles plus the sub and dub releases of the season and movies.

Tbf, Crunchy acquired the rights from Toho. So when they expire we can expect a very nice AL 4K set I’m sure.

Long live the Toho era 🙏

My TV mystery boxes were dispatched this Thursday and contained exactly the same items as those delivered in December. They’ve been completely upfront with their logistics issues (if not completely timely) and whether that’s an issue for you is entirely fair but anything else is just people...

Looking at my delivery and thinking ‘man, I really hope Lime did their usual top tier job of packaging this stuff 😬’

It’s 300 copies. Can never have too much Big Order. (This is a lie, 1 copy of Big Order is too many)

Alas, I’m now out of the running. Big order shipped today 🎉

My replacement Frieren LE just arrived after Rarewaves lost the first. Yodel + just rawdogging the set straight into a cardboard box is not a great combo. Not sure I’d use them again, certainly not for an LE.

My point was that since the stock is already allocated to mystery boxes once the sale starts, it is incredibly unlikely that they’ve oversold. If a series and sequel has been removed from the store completely then it’s far more likely they’ve lost the licence.

Nah, as I understand it they set a stock amount beforehand to avoid this (issues like Amazon’s Perfect Blue hoarding notwithstanding) As a sidenote; trying to checkout with 100 of an item in your basket is always a good gauge of stock levels.

As this week closes, I’m still in the running. The tension is palpable.
