Any idea if the discs will be available on their own too? I'd like to get Rice Music but don't really want to pay out for a import box set just to get it.

The box set will retail for something like $150 IIRC.
I have the Rice Music cd but ain't selling it (for now)!

No mention of whether it will be remastered but I hope so. Rice Music sounded horribly "crammed" on CD before.

Great News! Now if Masami Tsuchiya would get a box set out I'd be even more happier.

With this box set, the September Song cd, and the Japan re-issues, what else would there be?

Good news and bad news...

HMV JP charged my bank account today and sent me an email saying that the box set had been sent.

It is completely sold out!

Sorry to hear that. 12,000 yen is a lot of $$$.

On the bright side, that the box is sold out on pre-order means that there is a good chance of the discs getting released separately. Of course, the DVD would be exclusive to the box.
