areaseven Posted January 30, 2004 Author Share Posted January 30, 2004 QUOTE (Anubis @ Jan 30 2004, 06:14 AM)This nice little tidbit was mentioned in Right Stuf's weekly update e-mail: *** Packaging Crisis *** If you've been looking for the Bubblegum Crisis DVD Set and individual DVDs and haven't found them, don't worry - they're not being discontinued. We recieved word from AnimEigo that due to an expired sublicense with M2K - AnimEigo will be redesigning the packaging and giving Bubblegum Crisis a newer, fresher look. You can expect to see its release sometime in mid 2004, we'll be sure to update you when this wonderful series is available for order once again! Hopefully this includes a remaster. From the wording it kind of looks that way. New packaging and a fresher look. We can hope at least. About damn time. Hope AnimEigo gives BGC the same treatment as the Macross boxed set.

Dangard Ace Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Pass. Already have the boxset but it should be good for those who don't have it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Togo Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 I was one of those who bought the buggy originals and later had them replaced for free. I have all 4 discs plus the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 (edited) Pass. Already have the boxset but it should be good for those who don't have it yet. I'll be looking for these new ones. I was about to buy the current ones. EDIT: Type me suck... Edited January 30, 2004 by >EXO< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 I have the old ones, so I'll happily snatch up the new ones when they come. I'll give the old ones to my brother or one of his friends. I almost bought the pink box during the last Animeigo studio sale at Right Stuf, glad I skipped it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Hungry Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Cool. I was giving serious consideration to purchasing the current box set. Wait, now, I will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Hunter D Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I have no complaints with M2K's release, so AnimEigo is going to have put in something reeal special for me to buy another boxset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoryHolmes Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 AD Police, the original three episode OVA series, rocked. Dark and gritty, just how I like my cyberpunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerwalk25 Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 A real classic, one of the best OVAs ever made.Graham Word. ~G25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J A Dare Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 I bought the original 3-disc M2K boxset (the blue software style box), then upgraded to the 4-disc pink boxset which you had to pay extra (can't remember the price?). But it was worth it, as I watch the Hurricane Live disc often when I need a quick BGC fix. If Animeigo remasters BGC like what they did with Macross and do another upgrade plan, I'd sign up.

Keith Posted January 31, 2004 Share Posted January 31, 2004 (edited) Damnit.....yeah, I guess I'd buy a remastered set too. Especially if they got more of the extra's that were in the R2 box set (don't recall exactly what, but I know there were some additions), and used the original Japanese end credits. As for my favorite thing, Hurricane Live, I've probably watch that more than the OVA's. Edited January 31, 2004 by Keith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
