Zeta Gundam's release has been pushed back, and the limited edition boxset should be released in December, with the individual DVDs releasing sometime after.

Is it true Z Gundam has been licenced since like 1999 or something like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure?

Gundam F91 is coming out on DVD later this year. All Gundam shows will be released at some point. In the words of Jerry Chu, "it's not a matter of if, but when." My money is on ZZ next year, unless Bandai attempts to start releasing SEED Destiny before it finishes airing in Japan.

Zeta Gundam was announced in 2002 and has been repeatedly delayed.

We'll probably be hearing of the second season of SD Gundam Force soon too, though that's a different animal all together.

Is that even possible? They just relased SEED part 1 and it'll probably take them at least another year to finish it.

Bandai typically releases one series per year, so *something* is coming out next year. SEED will be released two volumes every two months from now on, meaning that the entire thing should be out by next June. It's very, very possible that Bandai might want to start releasing Destiny right after they finish SEED, since they (understandably, but still aggravatingly) care more about making as much money as possible than they do about catering to the hardcore fans. That's why Zeta continues to get pushed back while SEED is already coming out, why the direct sequel to Zeta (ZZ, of course) has yet to even be announced, and why shows like Victory and Turn A (one of which is fairly obscure and the other, pretty difficult to market) will be the very last to come out. There's no conceivable reason why Bandai couldn't release Destiny, but it would be the quickest they'd ever gotten a series out the door.

You are right zaphdash it is sad that Bandai could and probably will realease Seed Destiny before ZZ because obviously Bandai doesn't care about hardcore fans like us. Just look at the how long it has taken for Zeta to come and even that is not in stone to when it will be released.
