Reddit reviews Cowboy Bebop: The Complete Series - Amazon Exclusive Edition (Blu-ray/DVD Combo)

I've been following this release for a while now. I believe the bluray lacks 5.1 sound. For anyone interested, the article links to a good sale by amazon.

69.99 isn't bad. I'm really hoping amazon Canada posts a similar deal.

If I remember correctly its about 120$. amazon has cheaper version for 90 (was on sale for 80) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MMOZ1SS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

it is also worth noting that both of these editions had a limited release. I think the funimation one was less than 50,000. the amazon was 100,000 ish

>their pricetags can have drastic differences anyway.

Thats the thing. The prices can be wildly different. I don't have any actual examples of the top of my head, but lets say sometimes you might see two series with similar prices for the regular edition, and similar bonuses for the special edition, but one special edition will eb $20 more than the other. I'd say things like stickers and similar things are not worth it, but bonuses like behind the scenes, OST, and similar can be pretty cool, as can some other merchandise. Do you ahve any specific ones you were looking at and wanted to know if they were worth it? Do you have any specific examples?

For CowBoy Bebop, the difference between the regular and the Amazon exclusive is the Amazon exclusive has both the Bluray and DVD and also: Limited Edition clamshell art box, 140 page black and white art book and 48 page full-color art book. It doesn't seem like a bad deal.

Soon... I've watched a lot of anime and this show is what captured me. I love the style, story and soundtrack.

There are two versions coming out: Amazon - $89.98 and Rightstuf - $35.99. If price is a deterrent, the Rightstuf/Funimation release is far cheaper and more affordable.

[They also have bebop blu rays listed.] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MMOZ1SS?ie=UTF8&at=&force-full-site=1&ref_=aw_bottom_links)

Amazon and Rightstuf and Amazon has some kind of exclusive special edition.

Release date: 16 December 2014.

I realize that this is very late, but I was just looking into my copy again. I ran it through MakeMKV (http://www.makemkv.com/, which I use for ripping off the disc for use in a media center) and it warns me that the disc was authored with DvdFab/MacTheRipper. So it's definitely a bootleg. I wrote to Amazon this morning and left the seller negative feedback with the proof of it being bootleg. They wrote me back within a couple hours offering a full refund (even though I purchased it about 90 days ago).

It's worth running it through MakeMKV, or some other diagnostic software that will give you information about what software the discs were authored with. If you pass that along to Amazon, you may be able to get a refund. Then you can just wait until around Christmas when they come out with an Amazon exclusive Blu-Ray/DVD combo pack of the complete series with some limited edition art books for just under $90: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MMOZ1SS/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1LMR0VM22SWIP&coliid=I36WUJVZHWE88M

Good luck!

FUNimation's exclusive is less expensive than the Amazon exclusive ($89.98), but they do have different bonus items. It's worth comparing the two in case someone wants the art books that come with the Amazon edition:

> Limited Edition clamshell art box

> 140 page black and white art book featuring early concept sketches and designs that highlight Cowboy Bebop’s origins.

> 48 page vibrant, full-color art book

I was looking in Amazon the Special edition one. It says that doesn't have subtitles. https://www.amazon.com/Cowboy-Bebop-Complete-Exclusive-Blu-ray/dp/B00MMOZ1SS/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1I8QIDT495H56&keywords=cowboy+bebop&qid=1567276864&s=movies-tv&sprefix=cowboys%2Cmovies-tv%2C131&sr=1-4
