Oh sweet, a Californian dub? I'm looking forward to this.

Oh huh? There are Texan actors in there, too... Weird.

And New York VAs as well! Surprised

So I'm guessing this is a bi-coastal dub done by NYAV Post?

Yup.

NYAV has studios in LA and NYC. I assume the Tx VAs will be traveling to either NYC or LA to record.

There's east coast & west coast actors listed there, but no real Texas-specific VAs. There are a few that got their start at Funi, but have since moved on to one of the coasts.

I believe this is the first time since Bandai originally dubbed the MSG movie trilogy that they haven't gone with either Ocean or Animaze to dub Gundam. At least with UC Gundam it is.

Looks like a very solid cast. I'll definitely be checking this out.

So the Blu-Ray will come with both audio tracks and multiple subtitle tracks. And the DVD comes in just Japanese with subtitles. Hm...

It's an original cast, so while the proof is in the performance I'm pretty pleased. It's a better choice than another Ocean dub, that's for sure.

Well, Stephanie Sheh has been cast in Strike Witches and that's dubbed in Texas, 'cause Funimation has that one. I suppose the Texas people go up to California for awhile to record and then they go home.

Wow, not a single Power Ranger among them. Sure this is Bandai?

Good to see(hear?) Rachel Lillis working more nowadays.

Going by Steve Staley using his "Steve Cannon" alias, can we assume this dub is non-union? Wait no, Staley uses his real name on the non-union Bleach dub, so does that mean Gundam Unicorn is union? I'm confused! Sad

Misty in Gundam? Awesome. I love Rachel Lillis.

So, it's a LA production, instead of Ocean? This should be interesting. It's been a while since I've heard a non-Canadian Gundam dub. Given the subpar job Ocean's been doing lately, I'm glad.

And outside of DBZ, Sean Schemmel is a decent voice actor.

But who's voicing Full Frontal? If Ocean were on it, at least Michael Kopsa would have been a candidate. They should get Steven Blum.

Blum's played Char before, so it makes sense. Still, Michael Kopsa IS Char to me. It's really ashame that he'll be left out on yet another Char role.
