There might be more as the employee said they had X-men 90's and some Spider-Man dvds but they were sold out. So ymmv on those. Did get the 90's Iron Man and Blade for myself

Might be interested if we can get a confirmation on X-men 90's being on sale. I don't care about anything else.

Considering a lot of places are carrying the individual volumes instead of the sets, anyone wanting any of the Marvel Anime series should take advantage of this deal.

Are they any good though? I've only seen snippets and while I like comics and I like anime, I don't know how well they mix together. I did enjoy the Witchblade anime though.

Never saw the Blade anime, but I liked the X-Men anime (even if they keep depowering Storm so that she doesn't solve everything in 5 minutes). The Wolverine anime sucked, and while I didn't like the Iron Man anime, a lot of people did.

They're definitely not the quality Witchblade is. They are rather hit or miss with the majority of the series, at least for the madhouse series.

This is my description of the x-men anime. Take every anime story stereotype in existence, cram them into a 13 episode tv series, and apply the x-men to it. I checked the website, and the 90s x-men series is $15.99 a volume, not an amazing deal, but I may pick them up. They are also $14.99 on bestbuy's site, and, interestingly enough, Wolverine and the x-men is only $14.99 on blu-ray on there, too.

Thanks for the opinions, DNukem170, Squarehard, and Gden. I'll wait for a lower price point for them.

Get Wolverine and the xmen it's much more worth your money, and time.

^ This. While I still love the 90s series for nostalgia and because it has mostly held up well, Wolverine and the X-Men is really good and should be picked up if you don't own it or haven't seen it.

Amazon also has the Marvel animes for similar prices:

Marvel Anime: X-Men - Complete Series $11.93 FSSS/Prime eligible
Marvel Anime: Blade - Complete Series $10.26 FSSS/Prime eligible, third party seller shipped by Amazon
Marvel: Wolverine: Animated Series $14.78 FSSS/Prime eligible, Amazon Warehouse selling new copies (not a similar price but guess I'd add it for completeness sake)

There was already a previous thread on this, but Wolverine and the X-Men: The Complete Series [Blu-ray] is $14.99 as well.
