    Dam, if that many were sold I'd be having a party right now.

    I'm willing to bet the set hasn't even sold 500,000 copies yet. Hopefully the actual sales figures won't be disappointing.

    Sorry, guys. As I've explained a number of times, I cannot release information on the sales numbers. So, they can't possibly be disappointing, because you'll never really know 'em.

    I will say that we've been pleased thus far. But that's not to say they couldn't be selling better. We still need that internet push to continue. The fates of volumes two and three of AoSTH may be held in the balance!

    Great-- I know you mentioned before that you wouldn't be able to release any specific numbers, so that's all I was really hoping for when I asked.

    And don't worry, we'll keep pushing for sales ;)

    I know, I know I'm late, but I just bought my set on Amazon..........So I'll be watching that in about 11 days. I just wanted to wait until end of school to buy it! ;)

    Forgive me for going off topic, but I wanted to at least help relay a message Brian mentioned not too long ago.

    Work has officially begun on volume one of Sonic Underground which will hit stores sometime in the winter.

    If the mods can, they can do whatever they want with this message later.

    Looks like it may be Sonic year after all, Old Skool Sonic year! :P

    By the way, I just received the DVDs, it is so cool! The artwork really is a sign of the innocence and professionalism of the young and not-so-young fans.

    Some of the artwork was okay at best, but my personal favorite has to go with whoever drew the characters on the cover for Discs 1 & 2. My favorite art for the discs goes to Disc 4.

    Yeah, the cover picture was done by Lizsama (nickname on DA)....I even suggested her to get this pic into the contest, but she didn't want to. Looks like she changed her mind when a lot of fans were asking for it! :)

    I don't know who did the CD cover though....

    The Cover for Discs 1 and 2 (not the CDs, the package), with all the FFs including Dulcy. If SatAm were to revert to modern times, that sort of art is highly acceptable.

    Highly acceptable is not even close to describe how appropriate this picture is. One of my favourites, it's really what I see in SatAM, the darkness, the exhaustion, the will to fight, the innocence of youth.........That's Sonic SatAM.

    I wasn't describing how appropriate the picture was I just stated what I felt was the best fanart on the DVD set. And that goes to the person who did the cover for Discs 1 & 2.

    Meh, I still say that's literally one of the best SatAM fanarts I ever saw, I'm glad they choose it for the boxset.

    I thought that the general quality of the fanarts would have been higher ,but,now that I have my boxset ,I can say that several pics are nice for the subject and other have a good art too besides is material produced by strong fans.

    I agree that the dark pic with the freedom fighters and Dulcy is very good.
    A pic that I have appreciated a lot too,is that one on the DVD with Tails scared to death for the bedtime story ,because is very nice and on the artistic side is good too.The faces of the trio are so funny in that typical Satam situation and remind the happy Knothole atmosphere.
    I had read on your forum that the creator of one of the fanarts is an autistic child,I'm very,very happy that they add his pic too :) .
