Has anyone actually watched their copies yet? If so, how's the quality?

If you get onto the live chat and persevere with the agent (they're likely to believe the system at first), you'll discover it isn't true. (That's assuming you don't just want to take my word for it, of course.) The listing from which we pre-ordered isn't even there anymore; now it's just those three sellers charging c. $45 (plus tax and UK delivery).

I’ve ordered plenty from amazon US to the UK and never had an issue - and why would it have sold already and just be private sellers?
The fact it was NTSC only reusing existing art assets is maybe a red flag - surely there would be no benefit to region-locking a dvd release like this in 2024?

I was about to launch into details about whether I'm going to be able to cancel my other order, but really, that interests no one else. Every live-chat I did came to the conclusion that my original order wouldn't ship... it's all just too ridiculous.Chicken, He Clucked wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2024, 9:05 am Is this a dodgy release, then?Got an email yesterday giving an expected delivery of April 5th to April 10th, so we shall see.

Unfortunately, the Australian set only included episodes 1 to 13 and, as far as I know, no more sets were released.
