You crazy lucky Australian people! It looks like you guys are getting a full DVD set of Friendship is Magic, starting with the first five episodes on a single disc on June 20th. Unfortunately, it looks like there aren't any bonus features announced yet, and with a Region 4 code, they will only work in specific countries (Listed below, or c
heck the wiki) unless you have a DVD player that can play things outside of yours.
They will also be releasing a collectors box for future releases, since they won't all be dropping at once. You can find that on the Madman website when these are officially sold.
The actual DVD's themselves will roll with a 20 AUD price tag, and the box, including the first disc, will be 30 AUD. It will be costly in the end, but they do come with 5.1 surround sound built in, which is impressive to say the least!
Keep an eye on the
website for possible updates! Hopefully we see some information pop up soon.
Update: Small clarification on the Collectors box for those confused: It is simply a holder+Disc one for when the other four DVDs release later in the year.
Update 2: Pre-order Volume one here, Volume two here, or the collectors box set here!
Region 4 Code Locations:
Mexico,
South America,
Central America,
Caribbean,
New Zealand,
Australia,
Papua New Guinea and much of
Oceania
