A complete, dubbed version of SDF Macross was released on DVD in the States over the course of 2006, but unfortunately, some of the individual volumes of it are insanely expensive if you can find them at all. I own the whole set, though, so I can attest that it does exist. |
Seconding that since I have both the ADV dubbed version and the subtitled AnimEigo DVD sets. The only reason that I ever got the ADV dubbed even though I already had AnimEigo's set was the fact that ADV got Minmay's original voice actor and singer, Mari Iijima to reprise her role for the English version.

I am onboard. I have wanted a Frontier set for a long time. I might get Delta if the price is right.

I'll definitely be picking these up. Hopefully they fit on a shelf 
I hope they get the movies too for consistency.

I never thought we would get to see Macross Frontier in the US so I’m very excited about this news. And I wasn’t expecting Delta to be announced in the same day. I was expecting Sony to get Frontier because they have Robotech and I figured Big West would want to put Macross on Crunchyroll. Has Nozomi announced if there will also be standard edition sets and what does this mean for streaming?

And pigs fly once more over frozen fields of Hell.
It would be nice if we could get all of Macross out there to be available like we now have with Gundam but Do You Remember Love is a legal morass that I expect no easy resolution to and I'm sure Macross 7 and the original series will be out on Blu-ray down the line.
But at least they got Macross Frontier, the crown jewel of the franchise free at last. That is worth celebrating. And Plus which never impressed me that much but good for the people that always wanted it and for Delta and II despite them being the weakest entry and forgettably generic respectively.

This makes me happy, but I don't think we'll see a dub. I don't remember if Nozomi ever gave an anime a new dub.

Louis: They KS'ed a Dirty Pair dub.
Zeino: We'll get M7 when the record companies aren't greedy.

Count me on board from day 1!! I've been watching my fansubbed bluray rips but it'll be damn nice to finally get an official us bluray release of Macross Frontier. Seeing as I already have the japanese blurays of both movies I can finally complete my Frontier collection. And as for it being dubbed-I simply don't see that ever happing. I'm known for my overwhelming preference for english dubbed anime but in some cases I don't care and this is one of them.

It seems unlikely, I mean some of them are 50ish episodes long, I can't see anyone wanting to spend money dubbing what is at the end of the day a rather niche show in the West. But maybe I'm wrong, they did dub Dirty pair after all.

If they did a dub kickstarter for this, I could see it doing gangbusters.

I have seen Macross Frontier so many times that I'd only be interested in buying the blu-ray if they dubbed it which would give a reason to re-watch it yet again but that most likely won't happen. It's great for those that never got a chance to see it however, it only took 15 years.

Even though, I'm in the same situation, I still want to have an actual subtitled physical release of Frontier even though I have the original Japanese blurays for it, but that's just me.
