Shipped today:

Eden Of the East: The King of Eden (Blu-ray/DVD combo)[/quote]

Mine shipped as well with the Key Chain.

You’ll probably get yours before me. Curious to know if it’s in a Blu-ray case or in a DVD case. Funimation said the other combo packs are in DVD cases so Best Buy will put them in the vanishing Anime section instead of the Blu-ray section.[/quote]

Mine, too. According to the picture at RSI, there’s the traditional Blu-ray Blue banner at the top of the box, so we’ll have to wait to see if the box is Blu-ray size or DVD size.[/quote]

Just got an answer to this . It’s in a DVD case with a slipcover.

Was surprised to be able to get these used from AnimeNation for 0.99 each.

Ordered
Queen Emeraldas DVD
Sorcerer on the Rocks DVD

Edit: Bad memory on the second one, thought it was something else. Its less then a dollar so no major problem.

So I bought a wierd one today at the flea market.

It’s New Dominion Tank Police Vol. 1 on a “Movie CD” - episodes 1 and 2 on 2 discs, in a big plastic case like some VHS tapes came in. I just tried it with the DVD Play program on this computer and it comes up Format Not Supported, so it needs a computer to play.

Seems like this series never made it to DVD? Maybe this is why, this is kind of a goofy format, it says it’s only for 16-bit Windows and won’t even install on this computer, although I can play the audio in Windows Media Player.

I did find an install on here that will work, but it wants me to reboot for it to work, so I’ll wait until I need to do that and try it then.

Not sure what you got (VCD?) but New Dominion Tank Police was released on a single DVD.

I think they came out at the end of widows 3.1’s life cycle and the start of Windows95. I am not sure if they will play right on anything newer at least stable. The company that made them went under before they could get past a Beta codec for Windows 98.

According to wiki it had more releases then I thought it did.

I do remember stores like EB Games , Babbages , and Software Etc. selling them back then. I remember they had a heck of a time getting rid of them and in the end I think the guy said they trashed a lot of them.

Of course as soon as I posted that I checked eBay to see a DVD issue going for less than I paid for this thing. Oh well. It’s strange in that the video and audio seem to be seperate files from one another. Readme has a 1996 date in it -

Got some birthday money so went to Right Stuf and got some stuff I had been meaning to grab for a while.

Summer Wars DVD
xxxHolic Viridian Collection(the LAST ONE on Right Stuf, no need for that ugly S.A.V.E. box)
Genshiken 2 Lite Box
and pre-ordered…
Project A-ko

On the manga/lite novel side
Spice and Wolf novel 3
Full Metal Panic novel 4(I don’t even own 2 and 3, Tokyopop better release more)
and pre-ordered
Negima 29 and Negima 30

107 dollars into the industry, sorry Section 23, it was grab Living for the Day After Tomorrow or Summer Wars and xxxHolic

I’m rather curious as to why you think this is actually a necessary comment.
Everybody here, and I mean everybody, buys anime from companies other than Section 23/Sentai as well.
Hence the entire purpose of this thread.

It’s because I haven’t bought anything yet since ADV switched and I basically was going to till I remembered Summer Wars. It was just something there to remind myself to grab that show someday. Being on this site it just makes me feel bad, it is like going onto Funimation’s page and saying, HEY I BOUGHT A LOT OF BANDAI ANIME BUT NONE OF YOURS. When people post here, it is normally with a post in the other thread but I never put stuff there, and feel bad about it.

[size=17]And maybe say I want the price to be a bit lower[/size]

Don’t worry, you’ll get around to picking up some great Sentai/Section 23 stuff.

As for me, I received today

Eden of the East: The King of Eden (Blu-ray/DVD) with an Air King keychain.

Well, that’s it until summer for me…

Arrived today.
Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid: The Complete Series- Remastered DVD
Millennium Actress DVD

Came on the on Monday:
Eden of the East: The King of Eden (Blu-ray/DVD) + Air King keychain $18.89

Shipped:
Champion Joe (Ashita no Joe Movie)$5.37
Voogie’s Angel $5.37
Ikki-Tousen: Dragon Destiny Complete Series $20.99

Ordered:
Kimba, the White Lion (1965) Ultra Box Set (D) Limited Edition $69.86**

Could not pass on the Kimba set in the Daily Deals its lower then what it cost during a studio sale.

Hopefully Astro Boy sets pop up at some point.

Also looks like a Spring Clearance sale is going on. Depending on what hits the weekly’s I may make a order.

Local con last weekend so got all of Moribito and disc 2-7 of Chrono Crusade used.

Still waiting for my Right Stuf order to ship, seems they have run out of copies of Genshiken 2’s box set.

Oh and I forgot to mention on the last post that I bought A.I. Love You volume 8 off of Amazon for 20 dollars, that came Saturday.

Came over the weekend:
Champion Joe (Ashita no Joe Movie)$5.37
Voogie’s Angel $5.37
Ikki-Tousen: Dragon Destiny Complete Series $20.99

Came Today:
Kimba, the White Lion (1965) Ultra Box Set (D) Limited Edition $69.86

Kimba Ultra set is awesome. It’s like the old Tylor ultra sets chipboard outer box with a chipboard inner box. Except instead of digipaks they are in 5 double disc slim cases and one thinpak. Hopefully the Astroboy sets go in the weeklys sooner then later. If not I’ll get them next Rightstuf studio sale.

Ordered:
Coffee Samurai / Hoshizora Kiseki $11.99
Ghost Sweeper Mikami Collection 4 $29.99
Spirit of Wonder $18.22

Decided to order Coffee Samurai / Hoshizora Kiseki and Ghost Sweeper Mikami Collection 4 from the weeklys. Could have saved $4.20 with got anime if I waited for a studio sale ,but it’s probably not going to happen to June or July. Spirit of Wonder is the second set of OVA’s Bandai released here. Not had any luck getting a hold of the original for a reasonable price. I saw it years ago though.
