Anime Central is an anime convention in Illinois.

Hm, just interested in MoonPhase and Tsubasa. But I can wait. It's not that far away.

*sighs* I'd love to get my hands on Tsubasa early, but I live nowhere near Anime Central... I'm a bit jealous!

Cool, I might buy a volume or two when I go. ^^ Well, if the price is right anyway. I don't know if they can beat the prices of online retailers like Amazon & RightStuf.

Don't most of the licensing do this for conventions? I though that I remember at the AX 06 they were selling the X remix a few weeks early. And I am pretty sure that Monster have a volume available to buy that wasn't going to be released for a month or so. And I think that where I also saw the Speed Grapher artbox and that was still a while off until the official release date.

Yeah, both the cons that I've been too had releases before the street date. I'm assuming this was only posted because Afro and Tsubasa are some of the more hyped up series. If I remember from last year everything was list price so not a good deal.

AnimeNation has had all of these DVDs in stock for the past week, and has already sent out customer pre-orders.

I hope there's some left when I get there tomorrow. Now that's some good marketing!

My copies of Tsubasa volume one and Afro Samurai shipped on the 11th, while my Moon phase was shipped on the 9th. Since my copy of Zipang 5 which was shipped on the 8th arrived yesterday, I expect these dvds to come within the next couple of days.
