Mine arrived yesterday, art cards are really nice again, though like the last set of them they will all go in storage except for the Jupiter Card which will be put on my wall.

Wish I knew where they got all the promotional art from, I know its italian in origin but its all so nice and fits the look of the 90s series so well.

Did your art cards happen to arrive bent? The plastic wrap was a little tough on mine, so I'm currently flattening them out underneath a heavy book.

If you watch the special features on the first set, you'll see that as part of their licensing deal with Toei, they received a gigantic amount of promotional art for all seasons, all the logos they use are directly from Toei, and even the fonts used in the packaging and menus are those that Toei specifically selected. Basically everything that goes into these releases was created by Toei, Viz just put it together.

Just got off the live chat with someone at Rightstuf. They said they only got a few copies of Sailor Moon R part 2 in. They will be getting more soon. So those that already got them they were from the few copies they got in.

Mine didn't and I was surprised since they shoved all of this in the smallest package possible.

Maybe this has been discussed already, I am not sure but I am curious...have they announced Sailor Moon S yet at NYCC?

Yes I believe so. I've seen pics of the villains on a screen at some kind of con floating around. But I don't think it was New York comic con. The sailor moon announcements happen more at some sorta Anime con.

Ok, thank you I appreciate the info. I already ordered Sailor Moon R Part 1 and Part 2 the other day and was just curious if there was any announcements for the third season. Thanks again for answering my question.

But most of the latest announcement was for Crystal English dub going online next month.

Yeah, I heard that. I am excited to see it. I watched the first few episodes of Crystal subbed when they first premiered but then lost track of them so I am interested to seeing how good this looks/sounds.

Any idea when the blu Ray will go up for pre order? How has it even been announced yet?

Same here! I had watched a few episodes subbed and then I lost track of them. I am glad to see that Viz Media is finally dubbing these episodes. I wonder if they will put out Cyrstal on Blu-ray sometime next year, or if they will wait till they have completed the original series first?

If they're putting the dub up on hulu, then they're more than likely releasing Crystal before they release S. Which probably makes sense from a marketing standpoint, that way they can tie the release of S classic into the premiere of Crystal 2.0 (that adapts the S arc) later next year.

That's what I hear is that they will be premiering it on Hulu.com and on Viz's website.

What does pending fulfilment mean? Does that mean they are waiting to get more in stock? Because they already took the money out of my account.
