About Mobile Suit Gundam MS Igloo
Universal Century 0079 – The prototype Weapons Men Dream of Consume their Blood and Tears!

It has been some half a century since human beings migrated to space due to the overpopulation of Earth. In Universal Century 0079, Side 3, the farthest cluster of colonies from Earth, began a war of independence against the Earth Federation Government. This was the beginning of a massive and tragic war that would later be called the One-Year War…

Mobile Suit Gundam MS Igloo will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in 2017 featuring Japanese audio with English subtitles. This will be Mobile Suit Gundam MS Igloo’s first ever Blu-ray release in North America!

About Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky
Their war has not yet ended…

It is Universal Century 0079, at the end of the One Year War between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon. The space colonies of Side 4, or Moore, were previously destroyed by a Zeon attack, and many colonists lost their lives. Side 4 became a shoal zone filled with the wreckage of destroyed colonies and warships, lit by constant flashes of lightning due to collisions between electrified debris. It soon came to be known as the “Thunderbolt Sector.”

The Moore Brotherhood, an Earth Federation Forces unit made up of surviving citizens from Moore, set out to exterminate the Zeon forces in the Thunderbolt Sector in order to reclaim their homeland. To halt the Federation advance, the Zeon forces deployed their own Living Dead Division, which was established to collect combat data on soldiers with prosthetic limbs.

Io Fleming, though part of the Moore Brotherhood, hates being tied down by his homeland and family history. Daryl Lorenz, having lost his legs in earlier battles, is now an ace sniper of the Living Dead Division. When they confront each other on the battlefield, they will reach a mutual realization. These two are destined to kill each other.

Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in 2017 featuring English and Japanese audio with English subtitles.

About Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
Mankind has moved into space. Thousands of people live on giant orbiting space colonies called “Sides.” However, the Earth Government, which rules the colonies, is unjust and cruel. A group of revolutionaries builds five robotic weapons called Gundams and plans to send them to Earth to begin their fight for independence. Piloted by five young men, these Gundams carry the colonists’ hopes and dreams of freedom of the colonists with them as they descend to Earth to begin Operation Meteor!

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in 2017 featuring English and Japanese audio with English subtitles. This will be Mobile Suit Gundam Wing’s first ever Blu-ray release in North America!

About Sound of the Sky
In a lonely corner of the world, on the edge of No Man’s Land, sits Clocktower Fortress. It’s home to the 1121st Platoon of the Helvetian Army, and their newest member is a 15-year-old volunteer named Kanata Sorami, who enlisted to learn how to play the bugle. When she was a child, Kanata was saved by a beautiful soldier and found inspiration in the clear, golden sound of her trumpet. From that day forward, Kanata decided music would be her life. As the other platoon members train her how to be a bugler and a soldier, Kanata’s enduring optimism will inspire them to look for happiness and beauty, even in a world haunted by war.
