When does Shin Godzilla come out on DVD/BluRay?

I'm not sure, but my guess would be some time in the first half of 2017.

FUNimation is handling the DVD/Blu-ray distribution and potentially the dubbing for Shin Godzilla. However, historically, it will not be released until a few months after Toho's DVD/Blu-ray release in Japan. (Such as it has been for years.)

For reference, the live action Attack on Titan movies were released in February and March on DVD/Blu-ray in Japan. They did not hit American DVD/Blu-ray from Funimation until October. (Part II will be released this December.)

That's an eight month gap between the Japanese home video release and the American home video release. We may be looking at something similar for Shin Godzilla. So unless a deal can be made, we likely have a long wait ahead of us.

Thank you Gman2887. You are very knowledgable on these types of things. Thank you for giving me an idea about how long the wait might be.

Very welcome. Keep in mind I'm only going off of what's happened in the past. If Funimation is eager to get it on home video sooner and can entice Toho with some sort of deal, perhaps we could see it a little earlier.

But I doubt we'll get a release on DVD/Blu-ray before Japan does. That's just a bad business move otherwise. And who knows when that will be since the film is still playing in some theaters in Japan.

^Really? Wow! Shin Godzilla is doing incredibly well if it is still in some Japanese theaters.

Shin Godzilla is currently the highest grossing, live-action, Japanese-made film in three years and the #5 most attended film in the Godzilla series. It will finish 2016 as the #3 highest grossing film in Japan. (That includes Hollywood releases in Japan and animated films which are normally more popular. #1 for 2016 is Your Name [anime] and #2 is Star Wars: The Force Awakens.)

It's currently starting to rack up some awards. Here's its attendance numbers compared to the rest of the Godzilla series:

This is a possible release date from. But like Gman2887 said it could be up to eight months for the US.  http://comicbook.com/2016/12/02/shin-godzilla-japanese-blu-ray-release-date-announced/

Next spring, Japanese fans will be able to buy Shin Godzilla in stores. The Blu-ray is set to release on March 22, 2017. If you are a hardcore Godzilla fan, then you might want to resign yourself to paying shipping for the international item. The special edition piece will likely contain lots of behind-the-scenes goodies which will be overlooked in a North American release.

"The special edition piece will likely contain lots of behind-the-scenes goodies which will be overlooked in a North American release."

I can all but guarantee that.

I personally recommend the Amazon.jp edition ( http://amzn.to/2lWuepL ) as it comes with all the special edition content available through other retailers, as well as a steelbook, not to mention ordering is pretty easy through the Amazon.jp site, as they allow imports relatively easily. The biggest thing is price. You're looking at $90 for the 4K version, including shipping. 

I paid $53.00 for the 3-disc set through Amazon Japan. And it's worth it. A TON of extras: a lot of trailers and TV spots; cast appearances at screenings; the red carpet premiere; outtakes; NG (no good) takes (flubbed lines, noises that weren't scripted); B-roll shots; several views of the same scene; simulated newscasts of the events as they unfold (presumably using actual, well-know Japanese newscasters); extensive VFX/SFX making-of shots; and much, much more. If we can get just some of this on the FUNimation Blu-ray/DVD, it will be a great set to have. The shipping was fast too. It shipped on the 22nd of March and arrived on the 23rd. Not bad. I pre-ordered in December.

A wish list for the FUNimation release would include: some of the trailers/TV spots; some of the cast and staff appearances at screenings; the whole VFX/SFX feature, some of the simulated newscasts; some of the outtakes, B-Roll stuff and the red carpet premiere. One of the best features was the (apparent) surprise appearance of [SPECIAL FEATURE SPOILER COMING UP] Hideaki Anno at a screening as well as some of the cast at another one. Their interaction with the audience was fun to watch. There's also a speech by Anno with the production staff at the beginning of the filming. This is a lot. But, if carefully edited, portions of it would really put the FUNimation disc(s) way on the other side of special.

Paul Fruge' of FUNimation said during an interview with Chris Mirjahangir of Toho Kingdom, on 10-03-2016, "So we will have some special features that the Japanese have on theirs and some we won't. It really depends on what we're able to get our hands on, what they're willing to share, and or what we're willing to add ourselves for the US release."

So, based on this, I'm hopeful that we'll see some special features on the US presentation of this very special film, God willing. 

^I can not confirm nor deny the existence of some tailor-made features for the upcoming North American release of Shin Godzilla by Funimation--But it should be fun.

I also bought the Japanese Bluray, though I got the 4K Bluray. It is loaded with special feature, all like mentioned above, and it is really a very attractive special edition, and very immaculate. The Amazon Japan version also came with a sweet Steelbook that can be used as an alternative to store your discs, and the normal case itself is really well done, with a nice textured outer slipcover, with embossed and indented lettering, and the inner case is smooth red paper stock that folds out nicely. The 4K disc comes in a separate black paper stock. I'm really hoping Funimation really notches the whole US release up to 11, and gives us a Special Edition that at least equals the Japanese version, and maybe go so far as to make some sort of Collector's Edition, in line with what they did with Tokyo Ghoul Season 1, perhaps even a figure. 

The Toho set is really something to behold: hours of of great entertainment while rolling around in the universe of Shin Godzilla. There's a lot here, and a special Blu-ray/DVD release would be commensurate with the influence and achievement of this entry in the Series. Shin Godzilla received 11 nominations and got seven wins from the 40th Japanese Academy Prize awards. The film was a blockbuster hit and critical success with reviewers and the moviegoing public. Surely, for the release here, something special is planned. I mean, Shin Godzilla was released in theaters here mere weeks after it opened in Japan. I'm still amazed at this. And grateful. A special Blu-ray/DVD release would be icing on an already beautiful and delicious cake.

One other note I would like to add is that my copy was preordered, yet I didn't receive my "Limited Edition Ticket Holders", and Amazon Japan was absolutely wonderful about fixing it. They responded surprisingly fast for a place with a 16 time difference from where I live, and are currently in the process of getting ready to send me my ticket holders. 

^Huh... I didn't get that either.

If we could get some of these extras, subtitled, it would be beyond great. Toho did an excellent job on this Blu-ray set. Seeing so much of the cast in the footage, given the narrative-driven nature of the film, is wonderful. The same goes for the staff. Seeing them work with and direct the cast is rewarding. I love anything that brings me closer to these films and this genre. And the Shin Godzilla Blu-ray set does that in a way that defies description. I hope that, God willing, FUNimation can really come through for fans here in North America. Otherwise, I guess I'm going to have to learn Japanese. There's just too much to be enjoyed from this presentation of this seminal Godzilla film, a unique entry in the Series.

Can someone tell me what the 4-disc Toho Shin Godzilla set includes? What's in addition to the 3-disc set?

Thanks.

Also, I really like the font and color scheme for the Blu-ray set. The red and black, in that font, are reminiscent of theatrical posters for sci-fi films I saw while growing up. For something that is so topical and 'modern,' Shin Godzilla is refreshingly old. This is mirrored in the VFX/SFX. A preponderant use of CG, but it's looks practical. 

I'm guessing still no word on the American Blue-Ray/DVD release of Shin Godzilla?
