The sequel to Royal Space Force: Wings of Honneamise, Uru in Blue is getting a worldwide simultaneous release in 2018.

Can't wait for this.

Sequel to Honneamise?! How did I know nothing of this???

(And, by worldwide release, do they mean worldwide or Bandai worldwide, which equates to 'everywhere but the UK'?)

Looks like the delays regarding 009 Re:Cyborg is due to the English dub taking some issues:

Allegedly - but then again, I delivered the dub in summer time (which did take ages as there were multiple requests from the licensor for retakes over the recording).

If it helps, that's not an official statement by FUNimation but rather by a fan (Rootsofjustice).

I was wondering a few weeks back about this, given it was one of the first titles to be announced by AL.

As AL are taking the lead and have delivered the dub to Funi I'm wondering why it's not been released yet, or at least on the schedule of releases?

Probably because it was last being talked about in the early 90s! I remember magazines talking about 'Blue Uru' back when I was in my teens, so it's sort of weird seeing it finally making an appearance soon (hopefully).

This was just posted to Anime Limited's social media accounts with the words:

Oops sorry folks! With Andrew being out of the office today we only just pried the latest clue from his hands. Check back tomorrow at 9am to see if you figured out the clue!

Outlaw Star blu-ray maybe? I dunno. Anyone got any ideas?

I'll probably pick up outlaw star tomorrow. Didn't buy it because it's dvd only but may as well at bargain price!

It might be dvd only, but it is a hell of a lot better than the older BEEZ release in terms of picture quality. I double dipped on it earlier in the year at a convention as Andrew was selling it at a great price.
 
I missed it! Didnt want to buy it off my iphone since I dont trust the security and it was sold out when I got to my Mums. Might need to pay the £25 for it I've seen on some sites :(

I start work at 8am tomorrow so have no worries buying then if it's one I want/am after.

I think you can get Outlaw Star from The Hut and Zavvi for £16.99. I've never used The Hut before, though. (everyone knows about Zavvi :lol: )
 
Oooooh thanks I will give it a look! :)

EDIT: Gone and bought it and also Cowboy Bebop too as its the same price. Thank you! It does say awaiting stock from supplier so I half imagine I'll get an email about it not being available or the pricing was wrong. Will see =/

The £16.99 price tag at Zavvi has been there for awhile (I kept mentioning on @AnimeBlurayUK) as it was part of their Mega-Monday promotion.

Anyway "Awaiting Stock from Supplier" means that its currently out of stock and on back-order from the supplier, so as soon as they receive stock from the supplier it will be dispatched. The only downside is that it can take awhile, E.G. I waited 2 months for a DVD on back order before I decided to order elsewhere.
 
Well I'm in no rush thankfully as long as it keeps at the price I ordered both for :)

Steins Gate for £17.99 has already been shipped :)

I had the chance to buy Tiger & Bunny but I opted against it. Sounds fun enough but don't think it'd be my thing. Hoping tomorrows is good since I'm running out of DVD combi days!
 
Some shots of the Miyazaki boxset, looks like it's flimsy & easily damaged/distorted, very disappointed. Spoke to the person who posted the instagram pic and they told me it's quite thin & soft. Considering the price tag, you'd think they'd use a firmer box.

I wasn't sure I would pick it up as I have the singles but it was possible if it went on sale somewhere, for my Ghibli fanaticness but nope, not anymore.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, for MVM's 12 days of Xmas offer, if the title is available on BD & you win, you're able to choose that option as your prize. Confirmed via Twitter. In case anyone else was wondering.
 
That Ghibli set is disappointing. I wasn't going to get it anyway as I have them all individually.

Would have been nice to have an additional box this one slides in to so you get an entire wrap around box to hold them.

This case reminds me of those complete series sets you get for £50-£60 with every season of the X-Files or Buffy in.
