Summarizing: Re-release of the Visual Shock DVDs inside a box. Too bad it is released in July, which means that a re-release is the yearly July release. :?

For me it's great, cause I don't own any of these concerts on VHS or DVD *g* The only "problem" is, that's it again anything but cheap :wink:

EDIT: So I have a question for you guys who are customers at CDJapan, if I pay via PayPal, when will they take the money? When I order something, or when they ship it?

TG · **Reply #10 on:** May 02, 2008, 12:36:08 PM

I really want it even though I already own the visual shocks individually. decisions , decisions...

Anna · **Reply #11 on:** May 02, 2008, 12:38:24 PM

Neat. I'll be getting some extra money in July...

My problem is that this stuff is still well available, why re-release it?

To have it all in a neat shiny box we could watch while pleasing ourselves in every way possible.

ferret · **Reply #14 on:** May 02, 2008, 12:45:26 PM

I love neat shiny boxes, but mostly they stand for money grabbing.

Why re-release it in a box? My answer is pretty simple, to milk the cow and get some extra-money from the fanbase *g* They can sell it to customers who don't own any (or all) of these concerts (like me) and propably there are some people who already own all concerts, but still want to have the box.

ferret · **Reply #16 on:** May 02, 2008, 12:55:08 PM

With all the milk they have by now they could as well make butter; release unreleased stuff, pleez.

Matthias · **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2008, 12:59:14 PM

*g* I think we will get unreleased stuff in the future (after everything has been re-re-released :wink: ), and ultimateley there will be a mega-hyper-box with every concert only to be followed a year later with unreleased-never-before-seen-footage ;-)

The show are still not complete… I hope that the lack will be in the Bonus DVD.

I first ordered X Japan Returns Box there, then I saw it was like 60$ cheaper on Amazon, but CDJapan had already took the money from my PayPal account. I sent a mail and they refund me.

So I guess they take the money when you order, but if you want to cancel it, they refund you!

Amethyst_Dahlia · **Reply #21 on:** May 02, 2008, 04:45:55 PM

YesAsia is a much better alternative to CDJapan. Sometimes it takes longer for YA to have something in stock, but they always have free shipping. Meanwhile, CDJapan's shipping costs are usually super expensive (I remember trying to order the Hide Days magazine, only to find out shipping cost even more than the book itself! But that book's still not available on YA. ;_;).

But isn't the Blue Blood Tour DVD something that wasn't released before? o.o Or is that only part of a live performance from that tour? I hope it's the whole thing since I kind of already paid for it. XD"

And the only Visual Shock DVD I have so far is the Celebration one. ^^"

Hollywood · **Reply #22 on:** May 02, 2008, 05:31:54 PM

Heh, between my VHSes, LDs, and DVDs, I already have all of this at least once

(and have had most of it for 10+ years....). I'd like to know what's on that bonus DVD, but I can't think of anything it could be that would make me pay $200+ just for that and a box when I already have the rest.

Disappointing, because I'd very happily pay $200+ if it were 9 DVDs of previously-unreleased stuff from that time period.

So yeah, they're definitely trying to milk it for all it's worth, though it's understandable: now with the reunion concerts, I'm sure there are a lot of new X fans who don't already have this stuff. And for anyone who doesn't have the Visual Shocks already and wants them, this is actually a pretty good deal. If I didn't have it all already, I'd buy it.

It says that it's Bakuhatsu Sunzen Gig, so if that's true (and I don't see why it wouldn't be), then that's the same one that's already been available. And the one that's already been available is 60 minutes, so it's most of the concert, but not all of it. It's great anyway though! One of my favorite X videos.

Sander · **Reply #23 on:** May 02, 2008, 06:37:42 PM

Well I don't have any of those (except the X Clips by MIYA Records T_T ), so I'd love to get that

Because they want to break our economy! :wink:
They will probably put something very rare on disc 9 so we will have to buy it...
Translated with excite: "Disc.9 Special image privilege disk
The content is undecided. It will shortly be an announcement schedule."
I hope for complete X with orchestra, or some complete blue blood tour concert!

Oh yeah, if you only have X Clips then it's totally worth getting-- those old Visual Shocks have some great stuff (particularly Visual Shock #1 and #4).

Dear god! *DROOL*

Ugh so expensive... but its a possibility, especially since I don't have any of them on their own.

This is SO BAD!!! :cry: I can't afford ANYTHING if I want to go the concert... daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn!!!! *shakes fist*
