What I've bought from them:
- Akira Blu-ray SB (they lied saying it'd be a Limited Edition item)
- High School of the Dead Complete Series on Blu-ray
- Yu-Gi-Oh! 10th Anniversary Film on Blu-ray

^ Just these three things, they did release other anime series I was interested but they cancelled right after volume one, jesus! :|

FUNimation is way better than Manga Entertainment UK would ever be.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:
- Kai 2.0 on Blu-ray

Yeah, I've only bought Akira and a few others.... it's just that series like Bleach and Naruto are so much cheaper there.... they're jerks, but their prices are good. I suppose I can sleep easy knowing it at least supports the Western releases on the whole.

I just sold all 9 of my Orange Bricks. This is great news for UK fans though.

It's a shame these are about 4 years late, otherwise I would have bought them. Never mind, maybe this will boost Dragon Ball Z in the UK again.

Oh, yes, I've also got their Death Note BOX, boy, it does look like one awesome package, better than the US box, imo.

Other than the packaging, the content is pretty much the same as the R1, I guess.
