Blue Underground will give the film it's debut high-def release, setting an August 25 street date for the Blu-ray.
Tech specs will see 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 video (1.85:1) and audio tracks in DTS-HD Lossless Master Audio 7.1 Surround and Dolby TrueHD 7.1 Surround.
Extras include audio commentary with Bakshi, a pair of featurettes ("The Making of Fire and Ice," "Bakshi on Frazetta"), still galleries and the theatrical trailer.
Suggested retail price for the Blu-ray has been set at $34.95.
