Naturally I am picking up Blood Lad, Kill La Kill Part 2, Honneamise, and Place Promised / Voices Blu-Rays.
Already own Perfect Blue and Tiger & Bunny Collectors Editions.


Any word on that Shinkai set? It's gone quite quiet on that front.

I'm very intrigued by next week them announcing Q2 details :) Bring on FMP!
 
Looking forward to seeing the cover art / release details for Wings and Place Promised - imagine both will be looking pretty sweet.

Didn't notice this tidbit, can't wait to see what we've got to look forward to!

Out of this lot i'll buy Blood Lad CE, Kill La Kill Part 2 CE and Wings of Honneamise CE. Still waiting on the shinaki boxset and in no rush to watch Place Promised/Voices again so i'll hold fire.
 
Really, really, REALLY would like to nab Honneamise on BD. Not so keen on paying Collector's Edition pricing, though... but for this one, I may well be swayed. It'll depend on what makes the CE different to a standard edition release.
 
Blood Lad (DVD, Collector’s Edition Blu-ray) & Kill La Kill Part 2 [Collector’s Edition] (DVD, Blu-ray) - Preordered
Perfect Blue [Standard Edition] (Blu-ray) - Got the CE blu-ray
Voices From A Distant Star/The Place Promised In Our Early Days Double Pack (DVD, Blu-ray) - already seen and watched them on dvd so I'll wait for the Shinkai box set.
Wings Of Honneamise (DVD, Collector’s Edition DVD+Blu-ray) - Already own the Honneamise/Bandai Ent CE blu-ray so I am unlikely to buy this
Tiger & Bunny – The Beginning [Standard Edition] (DVD, Blu-ray) - Got the Limited Edition last December in the sales.

I always wondered, could you please tell me if it's region free or A only?

Not that I own it, but Blu-ray.com has it down as region free, and their info is normally correct. Plus nothing states "A" on the packaging.

I own it, and yeah I can confirm that it is region free.

Just to double note on this, the first release is Region Free (aka the Honneamise version) and the second and recent release (aka the Maiden Japan version) is Region A only. Figured I'd point that out since it might confuse folks.

I saw the page too, but some other trustable sites said it was region locked. Asking was the solution in this case!

Thanks!

Yup, the one that I own and the one that happens to be region free is the Bandai Visual release. Comes with the Blu-ray and DVD. The one that is locked to region A was released in 2013 (as opposed to 2007) and was by Maiden Japan.
