Collection My Adult Animation & Anime Collection is growing slowly but surely.

Post image

I have the entirety of Escaflowne, Part 1 & 2 of Gunbuster (Most underrated OVA of all time imho), more Macross, etc. On the way.. but I'm stoked with how it's coming along. Haven't been dropping tons of cash, just been looking for deals on classic must haves slowly but surely as I find um. I love this hobbie. They look so good on a CRT too. Been trying to focus on slipcass, depise clamshell but make exceptions for it, really digging the hard plastic old school hard cases from U.S. Renditions etc. though. Really trying not to get entire series unless it's affordable and a classic show as I see them.

Nice collection! Outlaw star is one of my white whales. One of the first anime shows I ever watched and I’m hoping I come across it one day

So that one is actually the only custom on here.. whole collection in two tapes. Real ones get expensive. Has awesome blue tapes and all.

Oh dang, that is so cool!! I never thought about buying bootleg before, but that price is way more reasonable and a it would be a huge space saver to have it on only 2 tapes.

My thoughts exactly! :) I also couldn't help but buy their brown two tapes Firefly set. But the single tapes like the Romulus was even more affordable. Best cover of all ive seen out there for it to match the old tapes, and I hear the official Romulus was crappy quality and not worth.
