OUT OF PRINT Status

Anime Limited have a mini-update on the next batch of titles going out of print.

First we have Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam Part 2’s 1000 unit edition that comes with the booklet. This version is now under the ‘low stock’ section so if you want to own it, best to get it as soon as possible. Once it’s gone it’ll be replaced with a regular edition without the booklet.

Next we have Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 1’s collector’s edition which is no longer available for sale on Shop AllTheAnime as the stock has sold out. The release is notable for only having 500 units produced. You can still pickup the release across multiple retailers for the time being.

Also no longer available for sale is Ping Pong the Animation’s collector’s edition. Stock is extremely low across all retailers so if you want to own the set get it immediately.
