Dude. You don't mean THE Limited Edition where Vol.1 comes with the case, and each volume after comes with extras (like CDs, and such), right?

I paid $150 for Vol.1 alone when I tried to start collecting it. After I finally got each volume, I must've spent at least $300, total, for all six.

If you mean the Complete Set that's coming out this year, then I'm afraid you aren't getting the REAL Limited Edition, but more power to ya', since it's an excellent series anyway. Wink

just be carefull, it might be locked.



i just want to replace a few of my bootlegged dvds. evrey thing else is optional.

pretty much all i want is the gundam wing box set and hellsing box set.

i would replace cowboy bebop but that might, if we are all lucky, be re-released as a 5.1 audio version.

If I was 15 again, then here's what I would ask for...

Berserk
Samurai Champloo vol1. w/ box
Great Teacher Onizuka
Now and Then, Here and There
Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

I only buy series that you can watch over and over again, and never get bored with, otherwise it's kind of a waste of money to just watch it once, don't ya think?

Well, my Christmas present was already ordered: Gundam Zeta...

But of course with the recent delay, it'll probably get here just in time for Christmas anyway, it seems. I suppose that's better than getting it before Christmas, but oh well. Anime smile + sweatdrop

I preordered it from Deep Discount DVD for $120. I'm an only child, which means I'm spoiled.

I could be even more spoiled by asking for more presents from my parents, but I'm not that spoiled. $120 is enough for me. I know my limits, and I don't want to burden my parents more than I already have by having been born...

I also have to get some presents for my friends, which is basically them buying the gifts themselves, as I will be asking them for money for my presents. Anime catgrin

And with that money, I hope to get a Region-free DVD player so I can start watching some Asian movies I've had my eye on buying.

Umm... speaking of Asian movies (sorry to go off topic), has anyone here seen the Korean movie "My Sassy Girl," I hear it's a really great romantic comedy. Embarassed

Movie is kind of old. I've seen it (I seen a lot of asian movie) It's good, you should check it out. Bewarn, you might be obssessed with korean chick after watching thsi. Also there's a comic based on this movie by comicsone.

One of the funniest and original korean movie I seen so far is Attack the Gas Station. It's a lot ore entertaining. http://www.kfccinema.com/reviews/comedy/attackgas/attackgas.html

Absolteuly none. The closest things I will be getting will be two Transformers Alternators, but apart from that, nothing anime wise. hell, not much in the way of anything considering we're getting a new TV as a family present.
