    • MS IGLOO 2 announced, MS IGLOO for Blu-Ray
      This month's Hobby Japan announces MS IGLOO 2: Gravity Of The Battlefront. The setting of the story will be on Earth and from the point of view of the Earth Federation Forces. The format is given as three 30-minute episodes in high definition. The 3D CGI will be of a higher quality than that seen in the previous production. The staff is largely the same though the mecha designers behind the Design Works are given as: Yutaka Izubuchi, Kimitoshi Yamane, Takuhito Kusanagi, Shinji Aramaki and Fumihiro Katagai. The super high-detail designs will appear in the U.C. Hardgraph line and be used as is in the animation. The official site, http://www.msigloo2.net, will open on the 25th.

      The previous installments of MS IGLOO will also hit Blu-Ray: August 22 for The Hidden One Year War and September 26 for Apocalypse 0079. Additionally, The Hidden One Year War, having been previously available in Japan only in limited DVD release, will finally be available there on a standard DVD release on June 25.

    • MS IGLOO 2 official site update
      Story (Vol. 1, Destroy The God Of Death!):
      "March, U.C. 0079.
      A countless number of the flying objects suddenly came falling from the sky.
      And from them, many combat weapons attacked.
      The Earth Federation Forces opposed in vain the giant mobile suits they had seen for the first time,
      And because of the Principality Of Zeon's supremacy on land, the landscape of power was repainted on a large scale.
      In those days, the Federation Forces's anti-mobile suit weapons were the Type 61 tank and the anti-MS heavy guided missile Regina.
      April, U.C. 0079.
      Amongst the Federation troops forced to retreat from the Zeon offensive, there was anti-MS squad commander and 1st squad leader Lieutenant Junior Grade Barberry..."

    • MS IGLOO 2 preview screening


      Sunrise writes that a preview screening of the first episode of MS IGLOO 2 will take place on September 5 at Akihabara's UDX Theater, nearly 2 months before it hits DVD & Blu-ray. Staff members will also appear for a discussion. The event is open to people who apply for a seat through the latest issues of Hobby Japan, Dengeki Hobby, Gundam Ace, Weekly Ascii, or .dot anime's MS IGLOO 2 site. As usual, lucky attendees are selected at random.
