Kikaider Reboot Receiving US DVD Release
 

Courtesy GenerationKikkaida. the same folks who pushed for a limited theatrical release.

Yes!!

Not sure how the movie was received, but excited to see this pan out and may pick it up!

Subbed or?

Yeah I think I may have to buy that.

YES!!!!!!! I cant wait.

This is just the best week ever. Yes!

I will likely pick up to see if the movie is really that bad or not.

Yassss!!!

GenerationKikaida's pricing model doesn't fill me with much hope, but I definitely think I can spring for this.

Where's my blu-Ray Yo o_O


Nah I kid, really glad this is happening since I'll be able to watch this now.

Aw man I want this too :(

Guess I need to import it from the USA.

No Blu Ray?

Woot! Totally getting that.

It's out now. Oh yes!

Oh no!

Awesome! Bluray? Oh well, at least its something.

ONly in Hawaii though, right?

Looks like it's a wide release, unless Hawaii annexed Canada while I wasn't looking.

I thought I heard luau drums and gunfire last night.

So, someone want to middleman me this after Christmas? I need it bad.

I can probably swing that

Yay! :D

"Due to unexpected high demand, the Kikaider Reboot DVD is currently on back order. New orders will be fulfilled in approximately 1 week. We apologize for any inconvenience."

Bad news if you wanted it ASAP and didn't already order, but that bodes well for the success of this release! Sucks about no BD, probably Toei not wanting it to cannibalize their own sales.

Seeing that the movie is market to a very niche group of people, I doubt we will see a blu-ray release anytime soon. I doubt GenerationKikkaida will sell out the money for a blu-ray release since it's cheaper to do DVD for now.

The thing that really sucks for anyone ordering it is Generation Kikaida's ridiculous pricing. $24.99 for a DVD is a bit silly in the first place but nearly $8 shipping per DVD, with seemingly no discount when buying multiples, is just terrible. I ordered a copy for myself and ZeoRangerV. Well 2 copies of that movie with shipping was like $67. That's insane.

Y'know I totally forgot this was gonna be a thing.

Don't suppose retailers are carrying this are they?

Sadly Generation Kikadia has no control over the prices of their shows and movies. The license fees and the amount of content on the disc doubles the price for the home video releases. $25 for a DVD is pretty high, but at least I can support Kikadia by buying the DVD. From what I've been told from August Ragone that the company only has like six or eight employes. There's not really many companies out there in the US that supports Toku outside of Godzilla and Power Rangers
