Kamen Rider W coming to Blu-Ray

[The 2nd Evil]

Hmm... according to XE.com, the price for Box 1 translates to 58.0392 USD.

So. Damn. Tempting.

Stupid "needing to save my money" thing.

You mean 166 USD. It's 15,385 yen.

 

[The 2nd Evil]

Yep, you're right. I somehow missed the 1 when I was copying and pasting the number into XE.

On the bright side, it makes my decision to not get it, despite how much I want it a hell of a lot easier.

Why has it taken this long for a Blu-ray release anyway? I mean, the show was already broadcast in HD, anyway.

That was the Ultra Galaxy movie. And yeah, the composer spoke English, and for some reason he also wrote the subtitles, I think.

I think that was a one off case because the movie was distributed by Warner Brothers and they generally demand English subtitles from their titles...

No idea if there aware of the import market at the time or planned a possible English region release but I was thankful for it anyway First bluray I imported

Same reason why Gokaiger was the first show to come out on BD. OOO and Gokaiger were the first Sentai/Rider series out on BD just because that is when Toei started to do them.

You gotta love Japan and there overpriced DVD's :laugh:

 

[Frumix]

60 000 for the entire series is still less than a series that comes out brand new like Wizard (about 86 000).

Curiously the new W sets include HBVs.

You got to be ballin to be able to afford the whole series box sets. Good lord. Or have nothing better else to do to spend your hard-earned money on.

*shrugs* I'd still rather have the toys. DVD/BD prices in Japan are just plain outrageous (compared to a suitable US price surrogate like your standard merch).
