Amazon JP Macross Merchandise

[Sorata]

Amazon JP has preorders up for new Macross items from Frontier. So far I have been able to order from them with no problems using their english interface. Right now I have Macross Frontier vol 1 and2 and Macross Zero preordered on Blu-ray disc but would also like to order any frontier music CDS and the collections of the two frontier mangas. But I am unable to read enogh of the item listings to find the exact items. can anyone here post links to the preorders for the mangas and the music cds. I think i found two music CDs but can tell what exactly they are, one looks like the OSt and the other possibly a single?

Yes, the first is the OST, and the second is the ending theme single. The following is the single for opening theme, Triangler:

Thanks for the help with the soundtracks.

I highly suggest using catalog-numbers when shopping thru AmJ.

Macross Frontier OST = VTCL-60060

OP (Triangler) = VTCL-35024

ED (Don't Be Late) = VTCL-35025

fwiw, I suggest getting the audio-cd's from CDJapan rather than AmJ, as the audio-cd's ain't discounted at AmJ like the DVD's.

I don't know about catalog-#'s for manga as I don't import them at all. You will have to rely on Graham or from our japan-based members for manga cat-#'s.

As for CD's and/or DVD's, either BandaiVisual-Japan and MacrossF official websites, and/or CDJapan itself will list the catalog-#'s for audio and video merchandises.

Thanks again for all your help treatment I ordered all the cds (wouldnt have know what the cds were without your input) and ordered what I think may be the manga collection volume 1. Its nice to see so much new macross merchandise out.

it's all good.

fwiw, as you prolly have seen already over at cdjapan, all of the previous Macross-TV soundtracks (vols 1-5) are being re-re-released again. so, yeah. lots of Macross merchandising are coming out again due to Frontier. Bandai and Victor really wants to milk out the franchise this time around.
