[QUOTE="ayase, post: 539733, member: 183"] Well the cheapest used copy on Amazon is $149.99... Like with [I]Zeta Gundam[/I], the way they got around the music licensing issue was simply to remove and substitute the offending track(s) rather than hinder its release (I don't believe I've ever heard the original score, so don't feel too aggrieved as I don't even know what I'm missing). I can only presume [I]Gunbuster[/I] is one of those things that's relatively expensive to licence and western distributors are concerned it might not make them any profit (it was released under Bandai's former premium label Honneamise in the US, as was the movie set (via Beez) in the UK, which makes me think it's something they expect people to pay premium prices for).
