Anyone picked up Cyborg 009? Since it's a release from Sony, I'd be interested to read what you make of it.

I've heard that the release was delayed. I've heard a rumour that it's out in March, but don't quote me on that!

(fears that this will go the same way as Sony's release of Astro Boy - they kept delaying it until it disappeared :cry: )

Actually, it looks like you're right, Amazon now list it as coming out on March 20th (I'll make the necessary amendments in a moment). Iirc, even the US release only made it up to volume 2, so it doesn't have a very good track record of making it to DVD!
