Nice, though it won't be as nice probably as the LE. Well now I won't have to go the import route or scalper route if I want Baccano! on BD.

Does this mean we're closer to a Durarara bluray?

Although a direct import won't happen at this point. On a side-note, strange things are still going on with it at Amazon Japan.

Plenty of people will be able to afford it, they just won't buy anything else.

The last release was 70 bucks. This one should be cheaper or equal price.

Wait a second, just now, it's back up for order. Is the Aniplex/Amazon issue resolved now? [Edit]It's gone again, sigh...

Uh, then explain why this is sold out? It cost more than R.O.D. on BD did (BTW, R.O.D. has always been priced at $200 for a box set release).

How about this?

Put simply people will buy this stuff, but sacrifices will probably be made. Though a regular BD for Baccano! will be much cheaper considering as someone already stated, it cost $70 MSRP.

I was able to snag it the first time they released it. I hope they get around to releasing Durarara on Blu-ray soon.

Ahhh it must have went up then disappeared. The Kannagi box has been doing the same thing. IRRITATING!

It has never been $200. It's ranged from as high as $160 to as low as $100.

They're referring to the MSRP which is $200 which you can clearly see on the Rightstuf page.

Nice how every single box set release for R.O.D. has been $200 MSRP, every single one.

You are probably aware that the Japanese blu-ray set of Durarara!! is supposed to have the English dub from the U.S. release. I doubt Aniplex USA would release a cheaper version in the States.

The Baccano! news are great. I am looking forward to watching Baccano! in HD.
