Inside Look at Upcoming Toradora and Persona Boxes

The folks at NIS America recently sent sample boxes of their upcoming releases of Toradora and Persona to Anime reviewer Chris Beverage (why they sent them to him and not us is, well, a mystery), and he has posted a good review of them plus lots of pictures here.

NIS told us today that these should begin leaving the factory around June 16th, so we'll probably be able to start shipping them to pre-order customers during the third week of June. There are two things I wanted to mention about these before we leave today for the weekend:

1) We currently have them available for a VERY special pre-order price that will increase once they arrive, and this price will only be honored for the folks that pre-order BEFORE they hit our dock. Don't wait.

2) Because of the extra's that had to be produced, NIS has limited the number of these that are going to be made to the first pressing, so once they are gone they will be gone forever. Again, get your pre-order in NOW to ensure available and that you get our special price.

These will be the first true 'collectors' editions of an Anime release in several years, and we're very excited about these!
