wow , i that Aug29th date correct for Vol7?

i was expecting an end of Sept. (seems a 2 month lag between DVDs)..

that is great news..

although i was looking at the site for Vol6 Special edition

http://www.rightstuf.com/1-800-338-6827 ... 9839/4/0/0

any know if those figures are correct? are they just giving out another blue Tach and the droid/maid again?

Ive seen on other sites that the release date for Volume 7 is September. Im wondering if the date on Right Stuf is just an estimate and will be changed once a final date is announced.

Animeondvd.com did an early review of Volume 6 SE and heres what they said is included:

"The toys for this volume are a lot of fun as it has a new Tachikoma, a Jamison and a maid figure."

I have also seen sites that say that volume 6 will come out with the maid and tachikoma figure, I doubt that they would purposely put the same figures in two of the volumes.

I am hoping that either volume 6 or 7 will come with the SAC 3rd soundtrack CD with the Christmas in the Silent Forest track.

well i emailed that rightstuff website, and he pointed out the variations in the figures between Vol3 / 4 and Vol 6..

eg..

the maid has no weapon coming out of her eye..

the droid has Jameson written on it..

i'm still hoping its wrong, but probably not

I have found news on a tin box set for the SAC 2nd Gig DVDs but it is only for region 2 (Great Britain).

The box set comes with the region 2 volume 7 DVD, a t-shirt with the Individual Eleven logo and a Tachikoma figure, you can see the image of the box set and its contents at http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/ ... g-tin.html, no news on whether or not region 1 will get a box set.

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig Volume 7 Limited Edition will have a box for the rest of the volumes and more figurines.

I will be picking up volume 6 as soon as I can; the extras that come on this DVD are interviews and an interview archive that shows footage from the past interviews that were cut from the other DVDs.

From what I read, Bandai is releasing the SAC compilation movies sometime next year and Solid State Society DVD in Summer 2007.
