For some time now, I’ve been fascinated by the story and the concepts of Ghost in the Shell, from the original movie, to the Stand Alone Complex series and the sequel movie, Innocence.

2 weeks ago, in the aftermath of seeing all that Anime and Manga at the rAge expo, I placed my order for this DVD:

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex – Solid State Society – Limited Edition (Steelbook)

3-Disc Collection Featuring 2 DVDs and SSS Original Soundtrack

• Features
  •     Anamorphic Widescreen
  •     Animated Interactive DVD Menus
  •     Japanese & English 5.1 & DTS Audio
  •     English Subtitles
• Extras
  •     Uchikoma Days
  •     Work World File
  •     Anime + Car Design – Designing the Future Car
  •     Making of Tachikoma Robot
  •     English Production Interview
  •     Mitsuhisa Ishikawa (Production I.G) Interview
  •     Storyboard Subtitles

I picked it up during this week and I’m not disappointed. It is everything I’ve come to expect from the GitS:SAC series and more.

And it’s one step closer to completing my little collection. I have all 3 movies now and SAC Season 1. I just need SAC 2nd GIG now and I need to get the relevant Manga and replace my Alias figurine that broke recently during a recent spring cleaning session.

I wonder if I can find a mini Tachikoma to put on my monitor at work? Hmmm…
