Lionsgate Announces a 'Season 3: Complete Set'

[TheCanadiandrome]

Previously available only as four separate single-disc titles, this July you can finally buy all 47 episodes together as a season set!

seriously, would there be anyone remotely interested? :ohwell:

Seriously, would there be anyone remotely interested? :ohwell:



I'm only interested in what the cover art might look like, and that's it.

[fugitoid2.0]

I might be. The complete series sets seem to be OOP, while you can still find season sets in stores. They're probably trying to streamline that release to entice the casual buyer.

[CyberCubed]

One interesting thing to note about this is Lionsgate is still interested in releasing Turtle DVDs though.

I wonder if eventually we'll see another re-release of a complete series set in proper order this time.

[oldmanwinters]

Good ol' Lionsgate gotta keep milking that Turtle license! :lol:

[CyberCubed]

Good ol' Lionsgate gotta keep milking that Turtle license! :lol:

I wonder if its because Nick wants to buy the rights to the original toon and Lionsgate doesn't want to give it up.

[TheCanadiandrome]

i dunno i might get this, for sh*ts and giggles. hell i've got everthing else

The complete series set actually is out of print.

I hope so too, for the sake of those who might have missed out. I doubt it'll have the episodes in proper order though. I'd also like it in better packaging.

Also, the downside to this being released is that other individual season sets are now out of print.

I'd get it if I hadn't already sold all of my individual sets. I've got the complete series set now.

I'm sure they're going to re-release the Turtle Van boxset at some point too, it sold out pretty well enough.

[Powder]

I will most likely get this, even if only to conserve space by getting rid of the old ones.

[CyberCubed]

Just curious, will this still have the first episode of Season 4 on the last disc like the old Season 3 one had?

[gobo]

Dumb question is dumb, sir.

[Shark_Blade]

I have the Party Wagon set, does it include all the 47 episodes?

[TheCanadiandrome]

I have the Party Wagon set, does it include all the 47 episodes?
pretty sure it does yes. that's why it was called "The complete Collection"

[pannoni1]

Not a bad time to milk the older fans in the midst of the Nickelodeon series looking for the classics, and this should sell well given that Season 3 seems to define what people expect out of the OT the most. With plenty of episodes for a long trip, along with clearing out some shelf space, its just more good promotion to the Turtles in general. In a way its like the Season 7 complete set that sold decently, yet was released only a few months after the last of the "slices". Now, I would have preferred a complete 4kids Season 3 set first (at least I have the region 4 sets).

[GodzFire]

Go away Lionsgate we don't want anymore of your mediocre releases.

[DVD]

The van set has all of S3 spread over 4 discs (D3-D6) exactly the same content as the slices. It covers the 48 episodes of that season, and I am sure that these, like every other disc in this set are just the original Lionsgate releases encoded onto new artworked discs (well, adding disc 1 thru disc 23 !)

The new release of S3 is strange, particularly after releasing the complete set. And, if that sold out so quickly, I would have thought that a reissue, or a second printing if you like, would have been the way to go.

Anyway, it looks like some people here will be getting it.

I would still like to see a release of the 2K3 series, which I would buy, even if I do have em all tucked away nicely on a computer or two already.

[CyberCubed]

This Season 3 set should have come out back in 2006.

[rufus]

Artwork looks pretty cool. Looks like one of the VHS covers was the basis.

[Toby Barrett]

Well what do you know. This is what I wanted with season 3 in the first place. Good show.

[MrPliggins]

Even though it's retraced VHS art, it's pretty cool!

[pannoni1]

The artwork is based upon the "Hot Rodding Teenagers" VHS release. The main differences are that the Turtles have pupils, the belts are brown instead of black, Don's colors are a darker purple, Leo's swords and Raph's sais are silver instead of orangish brown, and the belt initials are of a medium blue letter over a light blue background as opposed to the different colors on each belt. Also, props for not having to waste space to include "Plan 6 For Out Space."

[MikeandRaph87]

"Hot Rodding Teenagers From Dimension X" with a poorly drawn facial expression on the turtles except for Leonardo.

Where was this back in the Fall of 2006?:trazz: It will be nice to see it on the shelves but I already have it even if the four disc are in four different cases just like with the seventh season.

[CyberCubed]

I wonder what Lionsgate will release after this? Perhaps a DVD that compiles Seasons 8-10 together as a Final Season set?

I can see that happening.

[Storm Eagle]

Well what do you know. This is what I wanted with season 3 in the first place. Good show.
So did everyone else and their goldfish.

I can't. I don't see the point.

[jmodlin210]

Will Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 3 have bonus features and will the disc artwork for four discs be same or different? After Lionsgate releases Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 3 on DVD, what will happen then? Will Lionsgate release a complete series set of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on DVD with all episodes in proper order, remastered, more bonus features?

[CyberCubed]

Every time a new Lionsgate DVD release happens I pray for the Turtle Tips shorts.

[gobo]

Will Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 3 have bonus features
No.
and will the disc artwork for four discs be same or different?
Are you blind? Look at post #19 of the thread.

They'll rule the world.

Keep dreaming.

[Storm Eagle]

Are you blind? Look at post #19 of the thread.



That only showed the cover art. jmodlin210 was asking about DISC art.

Anyway, now all I want to see is the rear cover.

[gobo]

Oh... My bad. :sweatdro: Sorry, Johnny!

Still, you know as much as we do.

[Cipher]

Well, that's the best cover art of the entire run.

[Powder]

Still using mediocre artists who barely know their way around photoshop, I see...

[CyberCubed]

$19.99 is a pretty decent price for 47 episodes. It'll also likely be cheaper online.

[Storm Eagle]

I often find that they are cheaper that way. That's why I always tend to order DVD box sets and season sets online.

[Luke795]

I can see that happening.

Lionsgate will re-release Seasons 1 and 2 in Season sets?

[ToTheNines]

I'll probably get this just in case I ever need to free some space up on my Turtles shelf. Other than that, can't really get too excited over this ya know?

[Allio]

Well I already have the series collection, so I'm skipping on that (still on the early season 2 episodes)

[TheCanadiandrome]

well i'll be getting this. the boxart looks cool

[GodzFire]

Wow absolutely horrid artwork for the turtles. Good job Lionsgate, why settle for quality when you can do crap.

For anyone hoping for extras or anything new, it's not gonna happen. They are simply trying to get rid of extra stock. If they didn't take the time and effort in the first place they wouldn't do it here.

[CyberCubed]

I wonder how many extra DVDs Lionsgate still has. The old toon DVDs sold very well, so they must have produced millions of discs.

[cartoonistaaron]

There are a dozen fan artists who would have given them better artwork than that... for free.

I'm not buying this because I have no interest in it. But the box art certainly isn't helping.

It frustrates me when companies do this, because it wouldn't cost them any more money to get a competently produced piece of art. There are fans who are also pros who could give them an on-model, beautifully-rendered digital painting for nothing more than what they paid for this. They must be using some in-house employee or a friend of an executive or something.

[oldmanwinters]

I can't really complain about the box art. It's certainly not creative and the revamped cover doesn't look as good as the original art did.

But it's a whole lot better than the terrible traced over 4Kids poses we had on the first release of Volumes 3-6. Volume 4 was the absolute worst as it was just a cropped shot of Donatello's face from the Volume 3 cover.

[Refractive Reflections]

I won't be surprised if Lionsgate keeps releasing revised DVD collections like this, or as the years pass more "bonus features" (more interviews, how to draw the Turtles tutorial with an animator, maybe even audio commentaries on some episodes, etc.) just so they can get consumers to buy more "exclusive" features.

These DVD companies are somewhat notorious for that in which they will release the bare minimum for a movie or TV series in the beginning, but as the years pass by, they will slowly add more features and bonus material to try to entice consumers to buy the newly released DVD again. It's smart from a business perspective, but frustrating for a big fan who feels compelled to shell out money every time.

As for the box art... yeah, it can be better. While the skyscraper background looks good and the action scene is okay, the Turtles themselves are disappointing especially Raphael's weird smirk/smile and Donatello's eyes/face with that bandana.

[CyberCubed]

I think the only reason Lionsgate is continuing releases is simply because Nick must be badgering them to buy the series.

There should be no doubt in anyones mind that Nick REALLY wants to own the episodes of the original cartoon. I think if they offer a high amount price Lionsgate will finally sell the rights over to them.

It'll be for the best too. Nick might air the original toon on their block and might get better DVD releases.

[TurtleManiac]

I won't be getting this nor did I get the recently released complete series because they released them after I had chronologically purchased each DVD they released over the years so I already have the complete series on DVD, maybe I would have got the complete series Turtle Van box set but from what I've heard they're the same exact discs and not in order so why bother?

Why is everyone complaining about the artwork for this release? The show has been off the air for 17 years, do you really think they're gonna come up with something totally new? Sure it's a replica of the artwork on the "Hot Rodding Teenagers" VHS, but it is still way better than any of the artwork they used for previous DVDs. On this DVD cover they actually look like the OT Turtles because they took it straight from the vintage VHS artwork. This is what they should of done in the first place instead of using 2K3 art for OT DVDs. I would have preferred they use the exact same VHS artwork for all the DVDs there was so much potential. The original VHS artwork was awesome.

On the first DVD they released, the artwork is pretty good like it's drawn to represent the OT, the turtles look like the toon turtles the background is very OT, and on the back it has Splinter looking just as he does in the OT, and it's based on a scene in the first season. I never understood why after the first DVD they started using the 2K3 art.

[chrisdude]

I guess it makes enough since to sell it this way for future buyers, even if people don't buy it again. I've never seen the complete set in a store. :ohwell:

I think some of us fan artists need to start making spoofs of Lionsgate crap-art. There could be some really fun possibilities.

Still using mediocre artists who barely know their way around photoshop, I see...

Heh, I haven't ever even tried to use photoshop so I guess they've got a leg up on me. I do like the color shading on the turtles' skins though.

[liugeaux]

Actually, for those of us not intending to track down a turtle van complete set, this is a cool release. I always hated the way LG did those early releases. With this release they still have weird disc inclusion issues, but at least there's a dedicated set for each season. I know it may sound crazy for me to double dip but you're looking at a dude that bought season 7 twice so my shelf wouldn't be as cluttered. I will def be picking this up.

[Storm Eagle]

Even though I already bought all of the season sets before, I personally saw fit to get the complete series set for the simple fact that it came with a booklet that tells you what episodes are on each disc. Not all of the backs of the casings of the individual season sets had the episodes listed. I don't regret buying it, but they could have done better with the casing.

[Garfield]

I didn't pic up season three when int came out in pieces a few years ago, so this is good for me.

[raph27]

Lionsgate: Re-release the complete series set and we will be eternally grateful.:D

[redsai4lex]

Damn you Lionsgate!!!! I'll probably end up getting this too! They should have totally released this a long time ago, especially before the Turtle-Van box-set! It drives me crazy that the episodes are still not completely in chronological order... Watch them release a second complete box-set eventually in the form of a play-set or something to make up for it. :tlol:

Lol too funny

[Bossa Nova]

Methinks I'll probably spring for this. The complete boxset would be nice, but given the inflated prices of them everywhere, and the fact that as cool as it looks it probably takes up quite a bit of space, the individual seasons are looking more and more appealing. I was pretty annoyed when looking up the releases that Season 3 was split up into so many random discs and to be honest it was kind of keeping me at bay from finally getting around to purchasing any of the discs. But knowing complete season 3 should be released next month, and the fact that I've been watching the OT for the first time on youtube the past couple nights, has made me pretty excited :D

[rufus]

Stopped by Wal-Mart today and found TMNT season 3 on the rack. Only one store near me had them. Thought they were supposed to release July 23.

I wonder if it's a mistake by Walmart or the source from the op

[rufus]

could be a mistake on Wal-Mart's part. A nice mistake though.

[Powder]

I'm only one state away from you so I think I'll have to see if Walmarts around here have them out too. Thanks for the heads up!

[rufus]

I'm only one state away from you so I think I'll have to see if Walmarts around here have them out too. Thanks for the heads up!
Hope you find one. Also it rang up $14.99 and not $19 as listed.

[Luke795]

Is the first episode of season 4 on the last disc like it originally was on the individual discs?

[Kendamu]

I like this box art. I like Season 3. I'm getting this!

[rufus]

Is the first episode of season 4 on the last disc like it originally was on the individual discs?

Yes.they are the original released discs with new disc art.

[mikey22]

sure is

hot rodding teenagers!

[mikey22]

which is funny because they use a season 1 art to go for and yet this is season 3 lol

[Gyt Kaliba]

Totally nabbed this from Wal-mart today since it was all of $15 - a KILLER price for 47 episodes, good lord.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong here. I also own the old 'Volume One' release with the 5 episodes of 'Season One'. All I need to have Seasons 1-3 now is 'Volume Two', which had all of Season Two on it, right?

You are correct. Vol2 is season 2. Get that and you will have all of seasons 1,2,3

[Gyt Kaliba]

You are correct. Vol2 is season 2. Get that and you will have all of seasons 1,2,3

Sweet, thanks. Just wanted to make sure whether or not I needed to bother with any of the other 'Volumes' after that, or could just move on to the Seasons 4 and onward.

[shreddinghead]

It got a really cool cover and it conserve space, i dunno maybe i will eventually buy it.

[FlogginMcMurryZombiePizza]

I spotted this set at at WalMart for, like, $15 or so.
I was thinking to get it... It be the first set of episodes I would own since I had some of those VHS tapes that have gone missing

which is funny because they use a season 1 art to go for and yet this is season 3 lol

It's nicer than the Movie 3 costumes being used on the BluRay re-releases of the live action trilogy :-/
Maybe not Movie 3 but they look bad and do not represent what the look of each movie is.

[Brodie]

http://distilleryimage0.s3.amazonaws.com/86403046e8e611e2b70422000a9d0df6_7.jpg

Got mine today. I bought my first set (volume 1) in 2004. I'd been missing Volumes 4,5,6 anyway. Today I finished my collection. Pretty good feeling.

[JTH]

I don't get this. The problem I had with Volumes 2-6 is that they crammed way too many episodes on the discs and in result they look fuzzy and like crap. (Far worse than the other season releases).

So now they're just putting volumes 3-6 in one box and selling them to you with still 11-12 episodes per disc.

The episodes won't look any better, it'll just take up less space on the shelf.

Not buying it.

[CyberCubed]

The episodes don't look blurry to me. Its not like they bothered digitally restoring the show or anything.

[JTH]

The episodes don't look blurry to me. Its not like they bothered digitally restoring the show or anything.

It doesn't matter if the show is 1080p Hi-Def remastered. If you put more video data on a DVD than what it should hold, the picture won't look as good as it should, for Volumes 2-6 of the 80's TMNT series, that was the case.

It's like a computer with too much data crammed on it; the more you put on it, the worse it gets.

[oldmanwinters]

As much as I applaud them for finally breaking out that classic cover art (seriously, why didn't they think of that with the prior releases instead of green-lighting those crap knock-off jobs?), but until Lionsgate decides to seriously upgrade the quality of their releases (picture quality, special features, maybe even... commentaries) I won't be buying any more of their TMNT releases.

This box art is better than all of the other DVD's. Glad to hear that Season 3 is coming together as one set. Now if we could only get a proper release of Season 5 with the missing episodes included. :tgrin:

[gobo]

It says "47 episodes". Did they remove Plan Six? O_o

[rufus]

Plan 6 is still on the last disc.

[CyberCubed]

Well I purchased this out of compulsion.

[Powder]

Likewise.

Can someone give me an exact episode list for each disc given one of the duplicates was allegedly removed? If I can get that I will flex my graphic design skills to make us an insert for inside the DVD to let you know what eps are on what discs and such. You could then get it printed up at Walgreens or something. :)

Thanks! I'll see what I can whip up and post before Monday!

[FlogginMcMurryZombiePizza]

Just bought mine. My first animated series purchase haha Haven't seen these since I was a kid.
Instant nostalgia as soon as the opening started. Awesome.
Really old previews before the menu though.

I'm curious what are the Season 1 and 2 sets that match this one?
'cus I seen a ton of the shows DVDs but I never kept track of what was where... they seemed like partial seasons and collections. Some had sculpted faces on the cases, some came with toys and looked like pizza boxes and etc (I know there was a set cut as "4 slices" that came with toys and together made a season, or something).

It's a lot to track and organize though so I never have because I don't know where to start.

Thanks! I'll see what I can whip up and post before Monday!

That's awesome man!
I would love to supply art for the inserts but my work station is still not with me.

[Gyt Kaliba]

I had that same problem Floggin, which is why it took me forever to start picking up the series. The divisions they did for the releases are/were kinda weird and hard to keep track of. It's a little simpler with the addition of this set though.

'Volume 1' is 'Season 1', which is the original 5-episode 'mini-series' that started it all. 'Volume 2' (which I myself just ordered) is 'Season 2', which is the next 13 episodes from there. You already got Season 3. So from there, everything else you'd need to get, you can just get in Season set form, as you won't need any more fo the single volumes - that is, unless you really wanted those little toys that the split version of Season 7 came with or something.

If you're not adverse to ordering online, Wal-mart.com has all of the sets for pretty cheap, I think the most expensive one was $20, but most are in the $10-ish range. And you can even order without a card now, you just have to go pay in the store to process the order, and it'll then be shipped to the store for you to pick up. It's hella nifty.

Cool. I seen the first set, that came out ages ago.
The 2nd set has Leo and Mike on it then? There wasn't a re-release or anything before "Season 3" with the "Season 2" name and different art or anything? Because the following "Volume 3" that matches the 2nd set as far as art goes is only another 12 episode set as opposed to the current and superior complete 47 episode collection.

And then they will continue to release these season sets onward?
Man... I if had the $100+ for that Turtle Van collection...

These are all complete seasons then?
That's what was getting me confused. Recycled art and cutting the seasons up and then putting them together, etc.

If you see tmnt dds that say vol 3,4,5,6 and have the same art style as vol 2, those are the old single releases of what is season 3. Season 2(known as vol 2) only has one release. hope I didn't make that sound confusing.

I'm surprised you guys haven't been getting them as they went along. I marathoned the show 10 times through the DVDs already, and that's all 193 episodes.

The show is meant to be rewatched non-stop.

I wasn't back into TMNT full force as they came out, and may have been busy buying other shows at the time anyway. When did these first start slowly trickling out? If it was anything like 2007-2009, I was probably too focused on picking up the Dragon Ball/Z/GT season sets. :P

Season 1 came out back in 2004. They started when the second season of the 4kids show was airing. It's been nearly a decade since these sets began.

Ahhh, then at that point, I probably just didn't have near as much money to spend. I didn't graduate high school until 2007, so in 2004, I was in...9th grade. I may not have even started my job yet by then...and I was definitely not quite back into TMNT as heavily yet. So yeah, that'd be why I wasn't nabbing them as they came out.

That's quite some enthusiasm you got there. :trazz:

:lol: I was gonna say, "I love the enthusiasm, but I can't handle that show in a marathon run." :lol:

Much love to those who can, it's just usually by the time I get done with one season at a time, I need a palate cleanser. I'm like that with almost every show I love, though. A whole season of ANY show is a lot to take in, let alone one as balls-out goofy as the original TMNT. I can't watch more than one season of the newer shows at a time either, though.

[CyberCubed]

I rewatch the entire OT around every 2 years. Its much easier now that the DVD sets are complete.

Even just watching 3 episodes a day only takes 66 minutes, so you can speed through the series in no time flat.

[Leo656]

Awesome. I work a lot, and sleep a lot, so I'm only home and awake for a couple hours a day, and my wife gets final say over what we watch. And she LOVES the OT, and pretty much every TMNT incarnation (she actually did not even entirely hate Venus, seriously). But an hour or so a day for a week or two straight would pretty much not happen. :lol:

We do try it with lots of shows, but we rarely stick it out. Probably because we have too many shows on DVD to watch as it is and are easily distracted. Every time we come home with a new one, the temptation is there to abandon whatever we last had in the DVD player and watch the shiny new thing we just paid for, even if we fully intend to go back to the other show in a day or two. Just never really happens. She still hasn't seen how the original Thundercats ended and we've had that set for over ten years. :lol:

Keep it that way. It was nearly as bad as how the new Tcats ended.

[Leo656]

:lol::lol::lol:
C'mooooooooon maaaaaaaaaaan, it wasn't THAT bad. :lol:

Nah seriously, if we made it through "New Adventures of He-Man" then we absolutely have to finish Thundercats. That'd just be f*cking wrong. :lol:
