The second G-Gundam Collection is also gone. I thought that that one had sold out a while back actually, just because the number of auctions for it were going down on ebay (the cheapest one on there is $55, a used set on amazon is $40).

Anyone notice that some of the Bandai stuff went from counters to no counters? I noticed this on something I was looking at getting when I had the money.

I believe this was supposed to be about the time they did their last shipments, so that's not too surprising.

It was mentioned by TRSI from another forum that there was a product restock. With that said, it's still a good idea to pick up BEI products sooner rather than later.

No longer listed @ TRSI...

Escaflowne, Vision of DVD Complete Collection (Hyb) - Super Legends
Ghost Slayers Ayashi DVD Complete Collection (Hyb) (Anime Legends)
K-ON! DVD 3 (Hyb)
Rocket Girls Complete Collection DVD (S)
Saber Marionette J DVD Complete Collection (Hyb) (Anime Legends)

I noticed all of this stuff had been removed while looking on Right Stuf. I hope whoever wanted this anime got it in time.

Tell me about it. I paid $85 to get the four LE parts because I thought the Anime Legends complete collection had gone OOP.

It's official, folks.

Cowboy Bebop is now out of print. Crying or Very sad


EDIT: Perhaps I spoke too soon. There are still some in stock at Amazon, but they're selling for full price:

Is the Gunbuster and Diebuster blu-ray releases worth owning?

If they were in OVA format, it would be a no brainer, but they are condensed into movie format, which cuts out a lot of the material that made Aim for the Top so good.

What's the possibility of use getting the a blu-ray release of the OVA's themselves? Probably not too high I suppose. I might just jump on the movies sets before all copies are no more....better than not owning any version on shows.

Sword of the Stranger Blu-ray (Hyb) is showing up as sold out at this time on RightStuf. They may of course get a few more in, but if you are interested in this title you may want to keep your eyes on it. The RS sale plus membership drops it to approximately $24 while animecorner on Amazon is selling it at nearly $70.
