| | | Among some online retailers that I am familiar with, the best deal for the new Blu-ray Black Rock Shooter (BRS) bundle is probably available at Amazon JP (Haruhi Blu-ray previously). Amiami has a slightly higher price tag there but they are still very competitive by offering the cheaper SAL shipping method for people living outside Japan, and I have placed my order there ^^!
If you are new to BRS (like I am :p), you might want to read up Black Rock Shooter Wiki entry or pay its official site a visit for a non-spoiler synopsis as well as viewing its official trailer. Excerpts: The origins of Black Rock Shooter date back to an original character illustration titled "Black Rock Shooter" by the artist Huke, who posted it on his blog and the online artist community Pixiv on December 26, 2007. Ryo of Supercell was inspired by the illustration and created the song "Black Rock Shooter" based on that character. Huke joined Supercell and provided the illustrations used in the music video of the song, which was later posed online on the Nico Nico Douga video sharing website on July 13, 2008, which as of August 2009 had over 2.2 million views."Black Rock Shooter" features vocals from the Vocaloid singing synthesizer Hatsune Miku. | | | Black Rock Shooter + Dead Master Nendoroid Puchi |
This Black Rock Shooter Blu-ray bundle seems difficult to pass on, considering the bonuses that come along with the discs. The first press limited edition will not only have a special "double jacket" packaging illustrated by both BRS keyman huke and Yuusuke Matsuo, but also the "valuable" Nendoroid Puchis Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master.
Why "valuable"?
Based on my observation, bundled Nendoroid Puchis (such as those bundled with Dengeki magazine, e.g Seitokai no Ichizon's Sakura Kurimu) are extremely limited and will have a jacked up price when they make their way to Ebay later, probably double or triple the pre-order price you would pay today just for the Nendoroids as I foresee. I can't say that I am a big fan of BRS, but I have definitely secured mine just to play safe ^^!
Lastly, it should be safe to mention that BRS fame seems to have reached the international level judging from the included seven languages subtitle on the Blu-ray discs!

*Nods head* I'm skipping all the BRS 10cm Nendoroids, figmas and scaled figures as for now. If BRS grows on me and changes my mind later, I believe those "hot" figures will be easily available as re-run :)

Nope, I think it will be very less likely for XL to carry Blu-ray or DVD for the sake of selling the puchis.
