Funimation's July Releases - Now Available for Pre-Order!

Funimation has sent over their July release schedule, and we now have it up on the store site for pre-order. Here's what's coming:

Dragon Ball Z Dragonbox DVD Set #6 - Jul 6
Noir Complete Collection DVD Boxed Set (Classic Collection) - Jul 19
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Part 5 DVD Boxed Set (Eps #53-64) - Jul 26
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood Part 5 DVD Boxed Set (Eps #53-64) (BLURAY) - Jul 26
One Piece Season 1 Collection DVD Boxed Set (Eps #1-26) (Uncut) - Jul 26
Peach Girl Complete Collection DVD Boxed Set (S.A.V.E Edition) - Jul 26
Shin-Chan (Crayon Shinchan) Season 3 Part #1 DVD Collection (Eps #52-64) - Jul 26
Soul Eater Collection Season 2 Complete DVD Box (Eps #27-52) - Jul 26
Soul Eater Collection Season 2 Complete DVD Box (Eps #27-52) (BLURAY) - Jul 26
Strike Witches TV Series Complete Collection DVD Boxed Set (Eps #1-12) - Jul 26
Yu Yu Hakusho Season 2 DVD Boxed Set (Eps #29-56) (BLURAY) (Classic Collection) - Jul 26

So nothing new for July, just re-releases or continuations. It seems odd that for the all important month of July, Funi barely scheduled a release for the first 3 weeks of the month - especially since studios usually try to bring out an important release or two to coincide with Anime Expo. Perhaps this reflects part of their post sale transition period. ~shrugs~ One final note - the Strike Witches box was originally supposed to be a BD/DVD combo pack, but that got changed. Funi has dropped the BD release and the new box will be a regular DVD re-release only, which I also thought was a little odd.
