The Rebels Recon are all available via Youtube

And I watched the Season 1 Recap. Nothing much new.

I suppose the other stuff could be cool but I won't loose sleep if I don't get to see them ;)

That's good news. I'm stunned it was even a question, really. I mean, why would they deny an entire section of the world market the BluRay option? perplexing. glad to hear it's being sorted. :)

Disney... they love to forget about this part of the world.

It's almost like they don't want money.

It's truly excellent that Siege of Lothal is included as well.

Pricing on the BluRay option is the next thing I'll be very curious to find out about.

I asked the folks at Mighty Ape about the Blu Ray for Rebels, Season 1. They have the DVD available for preorder, but with regard to the Blu Ray, their response was unfortunately not positive, at least for now ...

"Unfortunately it looks like we don't have any suppliers that will be carrying this at the moment. :(

"I'm sorry we couldn't be of more help to you, but if we do manage to grab a supplier for a blu-ray version of this, it will be uploaded onto our website right away!"

They may not have a track on it now, but hopefully that will change.

I have to say, credit to MA's customer service - I had my reply within 5 minutes of sending the question.

I had hoped the Blu Ray might yet be plentiful in NZ. For now, the folks at EzyDVD.com.au are the only outfit in this part of the world who I have seen soliciting orders for the Blu Ray. Reckon I might bite ...

Thanks, bud. :) That makes the decision easier. Rather than wait and see I shall go ahead and order it from Australia.

Direct link in case others wish to do the same ...
