Gundam Seed sells 1 Million DVD's

Was browseing some news sites, and picked this little nugget of information up. Its probably nothing to anyone else, but i thought it was post worthy due to the fact that these are R2 disks, which are 50-60 dollars each, so imagine how much money is involved.

Impress Corporation reports that yesterday Bandai Visual announced that sales of DVDs (for sale and rental) and videos (rental) for the series Gundam Seed reached 1.3 million by the end of March 2004. Sales of the volume 1 DVD (for sale) were over 100,000 and the company reached 1 million in sales with volume 11 on 23 January 2004. The series has attracted not only the traditional Gundam fan base of male fans in their 20s and 30s, but also younger age fans and female fans as well. Source: alternative-live.
