Well, I just read a newsletter that said that Bandai will be releasing a 'an-fold' Limited Edition collection of several series, one of which happens to be .hack//SIGN! The catch is, after December 31st, they will stop shipping it, making it limited. They are also doing the same with Witch Hunter Robin and a few other series. I currently only have the link the the Anime Corner Pre-order for it, but please add more if you find them! Note that this is not the old three disk bootleg that was popular a while ago. http://www.animecornerstore.com/hacksign1.html

Yes, I've read about this. Bandai's taking a lot of their recent releases like .hack and Witch Hunter Robin and making collectors sets available for and only for the holiday season. As far as I know, the series that will be available are:

.hack//SIGN
Banner of the Stars
Banner of the Stars II
Betterman
Escaflowne
Geneshaft
Love Hina
Ronin Warriors
Witch Hunter Robin

Hmm... I'm assuming it's just a whole boxset of DVDs, not including the goodies that game along with the previous LEs?

I've already got the Limited Edition of all the SIGN DVDs, so I guess I'll be saving -quite- a bit of money on my part :P

Well if it means anything it does say that the set will have what they are calling an "EXCLUSIVE â€˜.hack//SIGNâ€™ Collectorâ€™s Pin Set."

Hm, been a while since I've seen either of you! Anyway, I doubt that it'll come with the original goodies, because then I wouldn't feel special...I might just buy it for a friend and take the pins though....depending on what the pins are really...And lets see how prices balance out!

(Using Animecorner, since Amazon is more expensive)

All Standard Edition: About $143.88
All Limited Edition: About $197.88 (I just put in 6 of the 5th limited edition)
New Box Set Thingie: $120

Wah......I feel robbed.....

Eh, I wouldn't get those unless you don't have the entire series already. Wouldn't waste that much money for pins anyway.

I prefer my OSTs and Puchiguso plushie :3

And I lurk more nowadays. I'm still around. Just lurking.

Update! While looking around, I came across it on Animatedbliss: http://www.animatedbliss.com/DVD/listin ... Collection

It looks really cool! It doesn't have any additional goodies, only the pin set. It also lacks episode 28 (Unison). Anyway, here's more links!

Bandai must be hiring extra hands to help count their bushels of cash.

"Alright, you handle this bushel, I handle that one. Then we'll pile them in one big lump and play Autumn Leaves!"
