OFFICIAL SPC and KNT Boxsets to be released by Discotek Media!

[Blackcat]

Way back in 1990, Lazerdisk was dead worldwide, so unless those lazerdisks had korean text somewhere, I bet they where originals. Only Asia keep using laserdisk for a while, but they where harder to pirate than VHS, Still, korea even made microchips using cardboards at some point, and they even made a pirate dreamcast clone that used DVDs, so heck, if it was in korea, I believe it!

Most information we have from the show from ages ago comes from websites that might be dead nowadays, but the fact they altered every song (Even intrumental). And a few interviews talks with people who worked on the show (Just text in websites, no audio whatsoever) Seems to indicate that Saban did not buy the rights for the score to save costs. Still, back then it was just information someone posted in a website then it was copy pasted in forums and other websites. No way to corroborate it unless someone interviews those guys again, but if they hardly remember the show back then, I don’t think they will remember the fine details about 20 years later.

And guys, you must understand the anime business has changed a lot, animes used to have WAY  longer seasons.

I've deleted the Episode Download boards in preparation for the launch of the DVD boxsets. Expect a contest for a boxset sometime in the near future. Best of luck to you Discotek Media!

I thought something looked off at the forum index, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was. Looking forward to the contest!

[Blackcat]

Well, shipping costs means I will not get the series DVDs in the near future -_-

Great news, aptly subtitled bringer of good news person! Hope soon means real soon!
About that: the status of the show now can't be seen as "abandoned" anymore so in due time, some of the edoropolis.org services regarding episodes will cease to exist.

I support this move.  Real fans should buy when they can, support what you love.  Now if it's out of print or impossible to get, that's a different matter...

"Real soon" would be pushing it. I prefer to wait a while. Might be summer, might be autumn, might even be an unusually hot winter for that matter, given the record warmth we've had THIS winter!

I don't think the Contest covers outside USA, shipping costs would be an overkill.

[Fureon]

Dude... as far as I know, shipping costs for DVDs are usually around $5~8 and very rarely above $10 - nothing to whine about.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, Discotek currently ships for free. No guarantee that the offer will still be up when SPC is released, but still.

[Mechadon]

First one here to get the boxset; pictures please, and tell us exaclty how you got it.

also, maybe your home address, if you have a home alarm system, got any pets? (like big dogs).

Know where America Is? You know the continent? Look where USA is, then look where Argentina is, then google the distance you have from USA to Argentina, then you will understand why I shine about shipping costs. Plus right now trying to import anything into Argentina is difficult due to import restrictions.

I understand you. I live in Brazil and the importation taxes are always high. I bought a R/C model airplane that cost's about 130 US Dollars and I'll pay for it over 600 BR Reais, about 330 dollars, to have it.

[Purrcat]

I once imported all Slayers DVD box sets which were out at the time. Back in 2001 when those things were $120 per 4 DVDs on Amazon...Apart from shipping costs, I had to pay 19% (hmm or was it 17.5% at the time?) import taxes since the amount in total was above 40 Dutch Guilders...Quite costly, all in all.

Blackcat, you mean madness like this? Urgh..

EDIT: Matt, that's just crazy, having to pay 300% its original value in import tax

[SBaby]

Oh, thank goodness.  The episodes were really starting to tax my PS3 hard drive.

Wait a second.  SPC is getting a BOXSET release?!  And this isn't a joke or some sort of virus that is making my computer display some fake message about this?!  Hang on a second...

<Runs out and cheers>

Ahem.  This is a good thing...

Seriously, first SatAM, and now SPC.  What could be next?  Bucky O'Hare?  An American release of Count Duckula?  A Ren & Stimpy collection?  The possibilities are endless...

[LadyFlame]

ABOUT TIME TOO!  *bounces up and down*

SatAM has WAY MORE FOLLOWING than SPC, seeing how fans keep Buying Archie Sonic the comic no matter what, one could see the market to sell old Sonic cartoons was always there.  Unless of course it was the french one that isn't Sonic X second season O_-
