If we just get all 6 of the remaining titles by end of year I'll be happy. It seems like MC is just fulfilling their contractual obligation at this point. I have little hope for a renewed deal with TPC.

Also I'm hesitant to make pre orders with all the rotating dates. I already pre ordered/ paid for Kids and Zearth back in.April, when they were originally coming out in August. I just hope whenever they do finally come out my pre order with DD is honored. I'm waiting until the others are confirmed to be actually in stock before ordering.

All that looks great until Cosmos vs Justice synopsis..that first lines needs a lot of spacing put in between words.

Prior to Ultraseven X the Heisei shows were shot in standard def, so blu-rays would just be upscales anyway.

- and (I only just found this out) the tie-in movies shot on film that are being bundled with these DVD sets don't even have blu-ray releases in Japan yet? It's crazy that The Next is still DVD only!

Ultra Galaxy & UGN were never released on BRD in Japan, so its not out of the realm of possibility for MC to issue Blu Rays where TPC hasn't, since it has already happened. It just depends on the materials MC were provided. I also think its a shame at least the theatrically released films aren't on Blu Ray, but oh well. At least we are getting them in a good format still. I've had no issues watching anything released on DVD so far from MC.

The Zearth movies were shot on film and are on BD in Japan. So, either TsuPro only supplied Mill Creek with SD materials, or Mill Creek is just being cheap/lazy.

Millcreek I don't think can get the rights to or permission to do Adventure Begins, Great, Powered, Dark Fantasy, and Heisei Seven. And the Hanuman movie is not gonna be released. But since they were given permission to release Gridman's series, why not dabble in the other heroes Tsuburaya produced? Or hell, put the 1969-1970 Ultrafight out. Besides the ones you listed, there's so many possiblities.

It's a shame they can't do Great or Powered. Those are the only other shows aside from the Showa series I really want to own.

Kinda sucks my favorite Ultra shows are the ones that aren't available on Bluray.

I've already put all the contents of the first three releases in this list on Wikizilla's Mill Creek Entertainment thread because I saw a ad for them on SciFi Japan. Does anyone here think I should put in the contents of the other three releases on their list as well, or should I wait for another ad to come out in order to confirm them and then put them in?
