What's a "character bust"? Oh, the poster thing would be pretty awesome. Actually, wall scrolls would be cooler. One for each G.U. game, the scroll being one of the covers.
I actually wouldn't mind a toy. But really, I'd like a Chim-Chim Plushie. ^_^

Here for example is the Blackrose bust you get from the limited edition of Mutation (Japan only)

I just had an idea... What if they packaged all the scenes from the first four games in a special edition of Vol. 2. Who would buy it then???

That's what we here call a ripoff....we also call it the terminal disk. Refer to my other post to see what I mean.
Lets maybe have Azure Kite's hat come w/ it or Haseo's gloves or something cool like that. I'd wear those any and everywhere.
-Hey what the hecks that guy got on his head
-Looks like something died
-Make fun of Kite's cap, eh.....RENGEKI....

Yes, that is "Win". List of hats I want:
- Stovepipe Hat
- brown detective guy Hat
- Rice Picking Hat (the ones those samurai wear, like Samurai Jack)
- Kite's Hat (how can you not love the ear-flaps?)
I bet if I walked into school with any of those hats, teachers would merely stare, and not ask me to remove it.

Ever think Kite has hearing problems with that hat?

The terminal disk and in game videos from the first game are not completely the same. The terminal disk refers to the RA program while the original 4 games nevers makes mention of it. ALso, not even half the vids from the original series are captured by the terminal disk.

He meant the important vids were there,and the reason they never mention the RA plan was because it hadn't happened yet.
Aura wasn't in power yet,let alone having been in power then going to sleep.

Yeah, its exactly what he said.
anyways, if you go to ebay and places like that, I've seen they have dvds or cds with all the cutscenes from infection to quarantine for sale or auction or whatever. Besides, #1: You may watch all the scenes, but if you've never played the game, you wont know exactly how they all connect, which leads into #2: Where's the fun in just watching the cutscenes. If people who dont know about dothack want to know what happened, they should buy the original games.
For people who just want them for their viewing pleasure...pop quarantine into the ol ps2....or buy one of those disks. I'd only say for them to do distribute such a thing if they strung it together with a storyline (like what they did w/ the terminal disk or if they could somehow make it into a movie(that'd be pretty sweet, of course they'd have to make new scenes for things like actual battles and ingame cutscenes that arent cg.)

i'd buy it regardless, but yes. Of course I'd buy it for that. I just dont want something that they've already given us. I want something that I can add to my collection. I can watch the cutscenes to .hack//GAME cuz I own them all. The only reason the terminal disk was an acceptable repackaging of those cutscenes (some of them) is because it was all tied together to provide back story and connection to .hack//GU.

I don't know about Vol.2 but Vol.3 will probably have the conclusion OVA with it since they gave us a break with GIFT as well.

(mildly off topic here) Where in the FMA series does Mustang wear a hat? I don't remember that.
(back on topic) I completely agree with that whole Kite's hat/gloves thing, that'd be an awesome extra. That would make my day to have that, and maybe make it worthwhile to order the second special edition from the states.

W/ vol 2 you get a lifesized, projectile action replica of Kite's bracelet.
Uput it on and hit the switch and look out! You just fired up a datadrain.

Woops, I forgot to erase that before I submitted it. guess It would shoot something that looked similar to the streams of whatever that shoot out of the bracelet when you use it. You know, the things that actually make contactw/ the target.
When I wrote this message I actually meant to write springloaded, but I wrote that instead.
