Dear Santa, I've been a good boy this year... maybe I can have the Initial D Premium Blu-ray Box Pit1 as my Christmas present? Pretty please? (snicker)

Avex has released more information through their 頭文字 D(Initial D)Official Site today regarding the Premium Blu-ray Box Pit1. We now know how Vol.1 of this box set looks like. As mentioned before, Pit1 contains all of First Stage (26 episodes), Second Stage (13 episodes) with proprietary re-mastering technology. The deluxe box set also contains many extra goodies such as Initial D Radio Stage Part 1, Extra-Drama CD Vol.1 & 2, Project.D mug, Akina SpeedStar towel and RedSuns "non-slip sheet for car" and many many more.

The "non-slip sheet" is designed for the dashboard where you can put some items on it and it will stick firmly on the dash solely by friction. It's pretty neat.

The Box Set Vol.1 is slated for a 2014.02.21 release, for 31,080 yen ($298 USD). So what are you waiting for? Pre-order it now as your Christmas gift! Or maybe ask Santa to get it for you! (wink)

Maaaaaaaaan... that box looks cool. 300$? There's just no way in hell I'll be able to afford that. sad.gif

Pit2 : http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=AVXA-74159 (somehow labeled as Pit1 too)

CDJapan is even more expensive than Amazon, by a good margin (+9k yen)

Yeah, no kidding. We are getting $30 off compare to two months ago. Yen is getting very weak these days. Not that I am complaining. happy.gif

By the way, I e-mailed CDJapan about the mistake about the Pit2 box. They replied saying they fixed it. They also thanked me for noticing. tongue.gif

Ohhhhh this looks fancy. I'm totally sold on the extra goods but what about this remastering thing? Will it look super duper amazing? Because I may or may not get this way down the line if it is good.

I think it can be safely said that there will be no re-animated scenes. First, that isn't remastering. Second, it would enrage me to death.

This picture of the box was just posted on Facebook by the official Initial D page. It's about 12x12 or 13x13 inches.

So, various reviews I've read pretty much say: The sound quality is really good, but... The video is really blurry.

We'll see. That's based on hearsay. We have no way to tell anything until rips surface.
