ScrambledValkyrie Posted May 25 Posted May 25 Cool! I wonder how much it will end up costing. Hopefully less than the earlier Blu-ray box. Quote
oshanmacross Posted May 26 Posted May 26 An actual full size (somewhat) art book! I'm there, don't mind all the time I bought it ^_^ Quote
Scyla Posted May 27 Posted May 27 (edited) Let‘s hope Anime Limited does most of the Macross shows/movies so that the releases look nice and coherent on the shelf. With Macross 2 being done by AnimEigo as a Kickstarter the whole Macross collection will already not be consistent. Won‘t somebody please think of the collectors… Edited May 27 by Scyla Quote
Duke Togo Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Am I the only one hoping for a standard edition that I can shelve alongside my other discs? Quote
isamu Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Day 1 for me. Hope it comes with the original breaking bad dub. Quote
jvmacross Posted June 5 Posted June 5 What will this cost? I already have the Japanese boxset....so would be interested in the artbook contained with this US release. Quote
Stampeed Valkyrie Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Interested so long as its obtainable.. Watch them release a ridiculously small number and it sells out in the 1st day. Quote
General Rasp Posted June 5 Posted June 5 I hoping this will be under $200. I didn't find a placeholder page on the Crunchyroll store yet. Quote
isamu Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Can someone post a link to the pre-order page at Crunchyroll's website? Or at least post a link to their website? Quote
Master Dex Posted June 5 Posted June 5 I saw something on Facebook, might have been an early order page in the UK that implied our price would be close to $135 but this isn't confirmed. Quote

sh9000 Posted June 5 Author Posted June 5 https://www.alltheanime.com/products/macross-plus-ultimate-edition-blu-ray UK store link. US store link will go up tomorrow. Looks like it will be $160 or more. Quote
jvmacross Posted June 5 Posted June 5 If someone doesn't need the artbook, cards and poster...PM me...at $160 I cannot rationalize the purchase since I already have the Japanese bluray set Quote

Chronocidal Posted June 6 Posted June 6 (edited) I'm actually kind of tempted. I already have the Japanese release, but I'd like to get the complete dub and sub options, since that one didn't include them all, and the new subtitles for the movie were.. a bit weird. I don't really feel bad double dipping on this one though, it's my favorite of the franchise. Edited June 6 by Chronocidal Quote
Gaijin Posted June 6 Posted June 6 I'm ready for this tomorrow. I hope everything goes well on the Crunchyroll site, I've never ordered anything from them before. Quote
Scyla Posted June 6 Posted June 6 (edited) It’s available now at AllTheAnime: https://www.alltheanime.com/products/macross-plus-ultimate-edition-blu-ray £99.99 with £15 shipping cost to continental Europe ($147/€135).

Chronocidal Posted June 6 Posted June 6 (edited) Up on Crunchyroll, but sheesh.. $190. Also, the search is broken. "Macross Plus" doesn't bring it up, doesn't even appear in the "Macross" listing, had to search "Macross Ultimate" before it came up. https://store.crunchyroll.com/products/macross-plus-movie-ova-blu-ray-ultimate-edition-5037899090312.html Edited June 6 by Chronocidal Quote

General Rasp Posted June 6 Posted June 6 My capital one extension found a promo code that worked on the pre-order. CRAFT15, got about $10 off. If you have a subscription to there streaming service you also get an additional percentage off. My total with tax came to $171.18. Quote

Chronocidal Posted June 6 Posted June 6 I will add that I'm.. "satisfied" that the artbook is significantly larger than the one included in the original Japanese release, but mostly I'll just be happy to be able to finally read it. Quote
azrael Posted June 6 Posted June 6 18 minutes ago, Duke Togo said: LOL, yeah, no. $190 for 2 discs and a bunch of paper? Yeah...No. And It's just the 4-episode OAV. Not even "+Movie edition". Some "Ultimate Edition". Not worth it unless they drop the price or can reduce the price with a coupon. Quote
Seto Kaiba Posted June 6 Posted June 6 (edited) Well, I placed my order... the Crunchyroll member discount and coupon code took a neat little chunk off the top and the shipping's free. The asking price didn't seem that outrageous to me. Then again, my standards have probably been skewed pretty badly by years and years of paying the already hefty prices fans in Japan are shelling out for "limited edition" media PLUS international shipping. 😅 Edited June 6 by Seto Kaiba Quote

I would have rather picked it up from a Japanese vendor, since we're probably paying the same import premium we get applied to everything reaching the US these days, but the entire reason to pick it up locally is to actually get all of the materials in English. And.. looking back? The Japanese release in 2013 cost me about $170 shipped. If $20 is the premium to get it imported and fully translated, I don't feel too bad about that. Quote
