Ponyo did in fact have a coupon. I believe it was $10 off too. However, for Ponyo I don't remember the first week prices being as low as Alice, Beauty and the Beast, or the majority of other Blus Disney puts out. I got mine at Target for a little over 17 bucks after I used the coupon (I think it was 26.99 at Target?). Still, not bad at all. Who knows if that price will have anything to do with the price Nausicaa will have during release week.MJW wrote:Did Disney offer a coupon when Ponyo was first released in the US? I thought I read somewhere that there was a coupon. Unfortunately, I've stumbled upon the Studio Ghibli titles a little late in the game, so I missed out on a coupon for Ponyo (if there was one), but I'm wondering if we'll get a coupon for Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind?
For anyone that bought Ponyo on Blu-ray with a coupon, what did you pay for it total? The Blu-ray/DVD is currently going for $25.99 on Amazon and I could probably get it for less than $20 on eBay, but nothing beats those first week prices.

Thanks for providing that information! I figured it probably hadn't been as cheap as the recent DAC releases, but I just wanted to double check. I'll probably get getting my own copy of Ponyo soon, I'm just doing a bit of shopping around to get the best price!Heartless wrote:I got mine at Target for a little over 17 bucks after I used the coupon (I think it was 26.99 at Target?).

I don't get why there is never any creativity when it comes to packaging in the US. Would there be no boost in sales if they were to sell something pretty like this?:yamiiguy wrote:I'd get the Japanese Ghibli blu-rays but they're so darn expensive!
That's cool, thanks for sharing the details! I like the covers for both. I think the US is usually last to get these releases as they come out on Blu-ray, but maybe we'll see these both over here by the end of the year. At least, I hope so!Haddad28 wrote:Both Laputa: Castle in the Sky and My Neighbours the Yamadas will be coming on Blu-ray in Australia on the 20th of April!
It's expensive and America's one massive corporation who thinks most people wouldnt get into this cuz it's japanese.magicalwands wrote:I don't get why there is never any creativity when it comes to packaging in the US.

I can see Castle being over here soon, but that's because it's already been released on DVD in the current line.MJW wrote:That's cool, thanks for sharing the details! I like the covers for both.

Release week I got Ponyo for either $25.99 or $26.99 (I can't remember which) at Target, and with the coupon it was around 17 bucks.MJW wrote:Does anyone recall seeing Ponyo on sale at any time since the initial release week? I know these Studio Ghibli titles are a little more obscure than your general Disney release, so I am not sure if they ever go on sale.
I checked the price tracker at Blu-ray.com and it shows that Ponyo had dropped to as low as $19.99 on Amazon at one point since being released, although it's $25.99 currently.
Lucky, lucky, lucky! I think after next Monday, the entire world will have these on Blu-ray, except North America.yamiiguy wrote:Laputa and Yamadas are out in the UK on Monday. Whisper of the Heart has been announced for a release in Japan on 20th July.
