Some good news in the form of Beez Ent, Bandai’s European house.
Beez Entertainment is proud to announce the release of GUNBUSTER 2 to the UK as of March!
The series will be collected in one Digipack release, shipping for an RRP of £24.99 and spread over 2 DVDs Extras include long interviews with the creators, interviews with the Japanese voice cast and Beez trailers.
The series features a young girl named Nono has left her home behind, to come alone to the big city. She has a grand dream of becoming a space pilot. But reality is harsh, and she spends every day instead at the diner near the spaceport where she lives and works. Then one day, while being harassed by one of the regular customers, a real-life “Topless” pilot named Lal’C comes to her aid. Nono, who is deeply impressed, starts on her own accord to call Lal’C “Oné-sama,” and volunteers herself by saying, “I want to become a space pilot like you!”
Thus begins Nono’s journey, to battle the space monsters and to discover more about her abilities!
Coming to the UK in March 2008!
When I worked it out, US fans would pay about $50 and that’s without deals from online shops. Remember that Beez sells to all of Europe so you can pick this up online from German, English, Irish and French sites, to name a few.
Now I still haven’t seen Gunbuster 2 but this is good news for anyone put off by BV USA’s pricing structure.
Well, laters.
P.S. Show proper up next week!

Thanks for the comment. Good to know someone reads the thing.
With the U.S. Dollar being worth crap at the moment, there are still good deals to be had for other things though if ordering from Europe.

You talk about the USA pricing structure being too high, and I agree. My question is this, where can I find good deals considering i live in the USA?

Stay online as physical shops have overheads that online shops don't. Physical shops have to pass the costs onto you. I shop at either Amazon or Robert's Anime Corner. In terms of the physical shops, keep an eye on Twitter and things like Best Buy deals and stuff like that.
Hope this helps!
