Animation Source Forums

I was reading a forum on BS and it said that it would be awesome to have Balto on Blu-ray. Some people contacted Universal like I did. This other person beat me to it, and my response looked the same as his.

Dear *******,

Thank you for contacting us.

No plans have been announced for the Blu-ray release of "Balto." Many factors influence the timing and content of our releases. Unfortunately, no further information is available at this time.

For a listing of upcoming releases, please check our website periodically at: http://universalstudiosentertainment.com. You might also wish to subscribe to our online newsletter for product announcements at http://signup.universalstudios.com/form/39.

I was really hoping my response was different, but unfortunately it wasn't. It seems like they don't care about Balto anymore It's such a shame. I also asked them about more merchandise, but they said...

We unfortunately don't have information regarding "Balto" merchandise. Based on the fact that there's not been a new "Balto" release in several years, it follows that associate merchandise would be scarce.

I tried. I wish I succeeded. But I didn't. Talk about a depression trigger...

This topic has absolutely no point to it whatsoever... And the reason to as of why they are probably message is because people at Universal don't have the time to type out a personal message.

You know, many studios, companies etc. do that. There are probably many people asking the same questions so they have the same reply for everyone. Nothing to be sad about. That's how those companies work.

Okay. MB: I didn't know that this would be considered a "pointless topic". Sorry about that.

I wouldn't say this is pointless, since it's not like you knew about it. But since it has been answered/confirmed in a way, I'll go ahead and lock this.
