It’s Tuesday and that means it’s time for your latest edition of the Newswire. Read on below for updates on 009 Re:Cyborg, Tokyo Ghoul, Full Metal Panic, Sword Art Online II and more.

NEWS/GENERAL UPDATES

~ First of all the wait is over as our UK Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD set of 009 Re:Cyborg is available now. Featuring the 3D and 2D versions of the film, lots of behind-the-scenes material and a booklet containing lots of background information on the world of film in general. You can order your copy from from Amazon UK HERE, Zavvi and through our own web shop HERE.

~ Speaking of 009 Re:Cyborg, you can now watch the final part of the Kenji Kamiyama Q&A from the European Premiere of the film and a new preview clip from the film the below.

~ Our next release is this coming Monday and with Sword Art Online II: Part 1 on both DVD and Limited Collector’s Edition Blu-ray/DVD. Over the weekend we shared a full unboxing of the Collector’s Edition version. You can check it out HERE.

~ We’ve also released a preview clip from the show focusing on the character, Sinon. You can watch it below.

IMG_6129~ Following on from our preview of Full Metal Panic Ultimate Edition (linked above) we wanted to make an additional note about the packaging, and specifically how the three cases will be held. To try and give you an idea of how it will be, we wanted to highlight this photo (left) looking at the part of the packaging in one of Madman Entertainment’s premium Studui Ghibli releases in Australia.

The way they have formulated the packaging to hold the amaray case holding the discs is similar to how we will be doing it for Full Metal Panic, but obviously different sizing being involved. We hope this helps gives clearer indication of how the three Blu-ray amarays will be packed in our release, but obviously once we have the finished product we’ll be sure to share images with you.

~ For those of you planning to get our upcoming DVD release of Tokyo Ghoul, we want to make note that it will now be released on 26th October. We apologise for the delay, but it was unavoidable in this instance. However our Limited Edition Blu-ray release of Tokyo Ghoul is still on track for 28th September.
