Last Exile is the only one on the list that I'll be buying for now, DNAngel, Gundam SEED, S-CRY-ed and Witch Hunter Robin will all be going on the rental list though.

 

[Mangaminx]

Have had Last Exile #5 a while, and have watched it already. Only thing there I want to see.

 

[Stuart]

I'll certainly be picking up Last Exile at the next available opportunity as well as SEED and possibly S-Cry-eD.

 

[Paul]

"Mobile Suit Gundam Movie #3 (Beez)" is the big one of that list for me. Such retro looking space drama goodness!

Last Exile: Vol. 5 - Grand Stream
DNAngel: Vol.1 - The Dawn Of Dark
Divergence Eve: Vol.1 - Welcome To Watcher's Nest

These only came out today, i guess D.N.Angel came out before schedule just like Last Exile, i've had it for a while now.
Out of the list i'm most looking forward to getting Last Exile volume 5, i really should hurry up and order it

All of ADVs titles where actually sent to stores last week.

I picked up NGE Plat vol 4 on Wednesday at a HMV....

i got divergence eve its great i want to get dnangel because once i dreamt of something like in the trailer where a white angel and a black devil fight and i was thinking when i first saw the trailer of it my god i dreamt that lol

"Mobile Suit Gundam Movie #3 (Beez)" is the big one of that list for me. Such retro looking space drama goodness!

I'm looking forward to it... the 2nd movie was kind of dull and occasionally incomprehensible though, but the same bit in the TV series was hardly my favorite whereas the beginning and end were. Seems to have not been dispatched by Bensonsworld

Got all of these dvds and i really enjoyed them.

I need to see more eps of Divergence Eve to make up my mind on it as im not to sure ehat i think of it at the moment, tho i didnt like the way the frist ep was set like half way though the serie as it confused me abit when it went to ep 2 and it was all different. the frist ep also shows you how alot of the chatacters end up and its takes the fun out of the serie if you know whats going to happen before you have even started to get into the serie.

Thats been out for weeks, i got it from Play on Augest 9th or so, was shipped on the 5th

 

[valha]

All the online retailers have been running preorders to Aug 22nd. Play.com included. This would still make sense though: Pinaccle Vision's website is a goddamned shambles, and that seems to be where the etailers get their dates from.

Example of Pinnacle visions problems: Movie 3 has a release date of 22nd August, but the product description talks about Gundam Seed Volume 3. Similarly, Gundam Seed Volume 3 has the picture and product description of S-Cry-ed Volume 3! S-Cry-Ed isn't due to next month, and it has no product information.

The weirdness encountered with Movie 3 / Seed 3 is reflected in the fact that Seed 4 was available on Play.com a week (or two) ago, but Seed 3 was still upcomming.

 

[Hybridchild]

Well Movie 3 was listed as being out on August 7th on Play and apparently it was then listed as Augest 22nd after that, there might have been problems with getting enough pressed so Beez decided to delay it but only decided to do so after Play had shipped some of them
