Hey there - just thought I'd post this info up on a new thread since some people told me they missed it yesterday on a different thread - I KNOW how many Aussie fans are out there!

The DVD is "tentatively" due out for release in Australia on the 1st of August, according to this site -

Hope their info is accurate...

Oi, Oi, Oi!

Yeah! I see now the DVD's out Aug 4. Can't wait!

I think what's really great is that most of us in Australia (well - my friends and I) are fans without having actually SEEN the show! I've read all the scripts and just adored them. My love is based purely on the script and the snippets I get from fan sites like this. Seeing the show is just the cream on top. Now that's the true measure of what Joss has created...

Hi Arcady -
I know what you mean about Joss. I read the scripts as well, before seeing the show, and was hooked. My friends in Perth never had to read the scripts like me, since I got the DVD for Xmas, so they all borrow it.
Where in Oz are you?

Ha! I'm in Perth as well! Well, actually to be exact - Mandurah at the moment...
I'm gradually going to convert everyone I know into a fan once I get my dvd set

Wait what's going on here? I must be misunderstanding something. Are you saying you guys in Perth haven't gotten the DVD set yet? Because I live in Perth and I do.

I got mine from Empire Toys in Perth city, they have them there. The only place I could find it. You should give them a call, I usually see a set on display.

I don't know if my set is American or something like that but it works fine and all, no region issues.

(hope that helps)

I can't believe it!! All these Perthian Browncoats! Now I don't feel so alone. I ordered my DVD set from Amazon when it first came out.

I saw it in Empire the other week and it was, I think $90, but my source tells me Ezy DVD will have it for $70. Empires version would be region 1 (though I don't know anyone these days without a mulit-regional player anyway).

Ooh - I'm all giddy now with the realisation that I could be passing Browncoats on the street everyday. Yippee!

So do you live in Mandurah permanently Arcady?
Where in Perth are you Jumpy?

Haha this is great. I thought I was practically the only one in Western Australia to know what the hell firefly even is.

I live around the city area dude. Where abouts are you VeraCobb?

Definitely not the only one to know what Firefly is! But you're probably one of a very small number that have actually seen it.

I live in Dianella - Mount Lawley area. I'm a student at ECU there.

So I take it you were a Buffy fan first?

I'm in Brisbane and ordered the series direct from the US.
I've shown it to several people and all love it two of which have since got their own copies.
Good news about the Australian release and gives hope we'll get the BDM when it comes out.
