Red Baron Blu-ray Box [Limited Release]

Some story first: I was 9 when I first saw Red Baron, which aired in Brazil on Locomotion, an obscure cable tv channel mostly dedicated to anime. Despite the awful dub we got, I was immediately hooked by the design of the robots, the cheesy comedy, the charisma of the characters and the building from a metal fighter championship to an apocalyptical future where computers aim to take over humanity. Try to follow the series was a huge effort at the time, since the episodes were aired completely disordered and some of them were annoyingly reprised thousands of times. Most of all, we haven't got a VHS release and no information was found on magazines nor on Internet. I doesn't matter; I just friggin' loved this anime and did not just made to see almost all the episodes (Locomotion didn't air the last one) but decided to preserve its memory and recorded from ep. 1 to 48. Unfortunately, I lost all the tapes when moving to another town. Since then, I often searched the Internet for a DVD/blu-ray or whatever kind of release, to find out always that this great anime had fall to obscurity. That was until Warner Bros. decided to bring it out of the vault and give us this awesome release on blu-ray! 17 years after I first saw the adventures of the Red Baron, I have the chance to put my hands on a huge release that comes in a wonderful bright and robust digipack, with a booklet which contains some notes on the production (in japanese) and several artwork (including unused designs for some characters) - something that I always wish I had when I was a kid. The discs come each with one character art. Quality of image and sound are perfect, and the episodes are complete (with the commercial stills and all). Quite expensive (limited release) and no english subtitles. But for me is like a childhood dream coming true. It was worth waiting.
