Yeah , I also think the older artwork is far Superior anyway.

Here's an update from Manga UK:
- Our release of Dragon Ball Z Battle Of Gods will includes the director's cut version of the film as well as the theatrical version.

- There will be 3 versions of Dragon Ball Z Battle Of Gods available from 10th November in the UK
1) DVD version that will contain both versions of the film as well as on-disc extras.
2) Blu-ray version will contain both versions of the film only.
3) Collector's Ed will include both films on Blu-ray, 4 exclusive art cards, a slip cover and the DVD disc (from the DVD version) that will contain the on-disc extras.

(NOTE: the extras on DBZ Battle Of Gods we mentioned are not in HD, which is why they're only on the DVD disc we spoke of.)

We'll have more details on these releases soon. Enjoy the remainder of MCM Comic Con Scotland for those of you attending! ^JG
Ugh, come on already reveal more of it!

It's still $31.48 on amazon in the US. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MX3B0CE/ref ... 9tb1VFXAYX That's not going to be the official release date price for US buyers right guys?
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Base.com has it cheaper for the Blu-ray and CE editions.

BD - £14.99
CE - £17.99

Zavvi has the CE for £19.99 so if people look for cheaper prices they will find.

Wait, why did they increase from $23 (I think) to $31? I guess the pre-orders must be pumping up.

Seems like they updated their Battle of Gods logo to what FUNimation has. :| They haven't revealed anything else of what the Collector's Edition comes with, so what we know now might be all of it, eh not that interesting of a CE. :(

Well, that's annoying. I only didn't import the US Blu-ray because of the cover.

Farewell original Battle of Gods logo from Amazon's product page because it's been officially replaced with the new FUNimation logo.

The original logo looked far better with its design whereas FUNimation's cheap and tacky, *sigh* such a shame Manga UK is going to use it (or was forced to) for their UK BoG Blu-ray/DVD release. :(

Well there goes my pre-order. May as well just order Funimation's Blu-Ray instead. Also when on earth are they going to release it in the Cinemas?

No idea dude, very disappointed. I didn't know a limited run would be just Scotland and Leeds. :(

It's Region A so unless you've got a Blu-ray Player that plays Region A BDs you can't watch it at all.

I got a region free Blu-Ray player just for the Japanese Battle of Gods Collector's Edition Blu-Ray (Which seems to be the superior Collectors Edition for the film by a mile).

FYI, the Japanese Blu-ray Battle of Gods is compatible with Region B too. :wink:

The Limited Edition JPN Blu-ray of Battle of Gods becomes bare bones release when you strip it down to what it really is.

If this is true, then I'm done with Manga UK. I'd rather import from other countries than deal with such a shitty company.

I found that out the moment it arrived :lol:. I guess it's useful since I'm starting to import Blu-Rays from America more often (works out cheaper as well lol).

I'm the same. I really hope it's not true. They could make a far bit of money from having it play in more cinemas (People would go see it just for the nostalgia factor and the children that watch DragonBall Z Kai on Kix).

Because they're not expanding the film to more theatres that means they're a shitty company and you'd rather import it? Uh..

Then there's no point saying you watched this on a Region Free BDP as it works on any UK BDP.

I was just stating that I owned a Blu-Ray player that can play Funimation's Battle of Gods Blu-Ray.
