  1. This actually makes me very happy. Hopefully this means they can also release other series on dvd at fair prices again.

  2. About damn time! But Sunrise can't just put Reconguista in G on their Youtube channel like they did with Build Fighters?

    1. because it airs on a tv channel which owns the rights to it which is also why you never saw gunpla from 00 S2 or 00 the movie or age in gbf s1

    1. I'm pretty sure it's Loran, if DWG3 is anything to go by.

  4. Just subtitled releases though, right? I'd really love it if they took a stab at a Turn A dub.

  7. Awesome. Now all we need is a partnership with Bandai, and some chain of stores to carry gunpla and we'll be set in the states. (wishful thinking).

    1. barnes and noble sells gunpla currently, not every store and the selection is pretty bad (from what I've seen), but it's a start

    2. I'm so happy that Gundam has been given another chance in the states. Us Gundam Fans have to work together to make Gundam as popular in the states as it is everywhere else.

I do kind of wish they would dub build fighters but then again I can't think of any good voices for the characters the girls would be easy but the guys not so much
