Cool orange color....very halloweeny! Thanks for the post.

Same here...

[TheBlueTurtle1]

*waits for complete box-set*

[Coola Yagami]

Then you all are in for a looooong wait.

[CyberCubed]

Then you all are in for a looooong wait.

Well considering I waited from 2004 to 2012 to own the entire original cartoon on DVD, I am able to withstand long waits.

[raph27]

So I'm guessing Slash and Destroy, Good, Bad, and Casey Jones, Kraang Conspiracy, Metalhead Rewired, Of Rats and Men and Wormquake?

[BubblyShell22]

It'll have the eps from "Slash and Destroy" all the way to "Of Rats and Men." Nothing else from what I gathered in the other thread.

[biganimefan]

I really don't understand some people...I KNOW most of you are around the age that I am and have bought VHS tapes of Turtles in the past. Even with single DVD releases we do get 6-7 episodes for a price of $10-15 nowadays. And yeah...even if 2-3 episodes on VHS was still the only option I'd buy those to get Ninja Turtles. I suppose if one day in the far future that they do finally release blu-ray season sets for Turtles you guys can thank the rest of us that bought the DVD's as they come.

Well, look at folks who waited for a complete box set of the 2003 show. It didn't work out too well for them.

Well make no mistake, most fans are spoiled well beyond wretchedly rotten. These sets are a Godsend in comparison to the abysmal treatment that the 2003 series got....yet it still isn't good enough for their highness. So whatever, let them wait. They obviously don't want the show half as much as they claim.

[snake]

*waits for blu-ray*

Keep waiting. Maybe 20 years after the show wraps we'll get a box set.

[Aaronardo]

Well, look at folks who waited for a complete box set of the 2003 show. It didn't work out too well for them.

The difference is that for every other show Nickelodeon has had they've released a season boxset for it. Surely one of their more popular shows would get a boxset if all the more obscure ones did. Plus, 4kids is a VERY irresponsible company when it comes to DVDs, and Viacom isn't one of those companies.
One more thing. If you paid $60 million for an entire franchise, would you put out a season boxset if the fans wanted it? I'd make sure I get my money's worth if I did.
Yet it still isn't good enough for their highness.

Highness has nothing to do with it for some of us. For some of us, it's the trashy economy we live in today. I'm not dishing out $50 for three individual DVDs for one season when I can just wait for a boxset that goes for about $20-$25 or sometimes even $15.

[BubblyShell22]

Dude, the DVDs aren't fifty bucks each. They're way cheaper than that and to me, that's a great thing. I'm going to get these DVDs as long as they come out because of how cheap they are.

[kelligrafie]

Well considering I waited from 2004 to 2012 to own the entire original cartoon on DVD, I am able to withstand long waits.

Remind me to repost this next time I see the word 'hiatus'.

What were the extras like on the season 1 boxset? I got the four seperate discs with 4-5 episodes on each and the extras were pitiful. I mean that's not why I got them, I was just expecting the actual episodes but I don't see the point in waiting forever for a boxset if it's no more special than the seperate dvds, which I can own months earlier for the same price.

[Aaronardo]

Dude, the DVDs aren't fifty bucks each. They're way cheaper than that and to me, that's a great thing. I'm going to get these DVDs as long as they come out because of how cheap they are.

I never said fifty bucks each. I said that altogether, if you buy all of Season 1's individual DVDs, you've spend a total of $50 when you could've just waited for a $20 set that takes up less space anyway.

[raph27]

Well, Target has Rise of the Turtles and Enter Shredder on sale. $12. FOR BOTH DVDs. And Ultimate Showdown? $15. That's $27. Lot different than $50. Exactly how much do you think the boxset will be? $15? Nick's not stupid.

[Aaronardo]

Well, Target has Rise of the Turtles and Enter Shredder on sale. $12. FOR BOTH DVDs. And Ultimate Showdown? $15. That's $27. Lot different than $50. Exactly how much do you think the boxset will be? $15? Nick's not stupid.

And yet Legend of Korra gets a season 1 boxset for $15.
Also, not everyone has your neighborhood Target where they live. Nearest Target for me is a drive I would make to go on a vacation. Also, think about size. Size, people! This is why people like me love boxsets. Better than individual releases in every way.

[BubblyShell22]

Do you have a Walmart? The DVDs are there, too.

[oldmanwinters]

I only own the Mutagen Mayhem DVD (got as a gift), but I am fairly impressed with the extras included.

Well considering I waited from 2004 to 2012 to own the entire original cartoon on DVD, I am able to withstand long waits.

Waiting hasn't yet paid off regarding the 4Kids cartoon though.

EDIT:
Well, look at folks who waited for a complete box set of the 2003 show. It didn't work out too well for them.
Ah... beat me to it.

[METALHEAD]

target had the 2pack rise of the turtles & enter shredder on sale for 11.99 as ultimate showdown for the same price together it was 20 good deal!!

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I got the first two DVD's of season 1 from my local Wal-Mart for $9.95 each, and Ultimate Showdown for 12$. Just picked up Mutagen Mayhem for around that price, too. So- about 30$? That's still pretty cheap. I'm not waiting around for them to decide to do box sets of each season when I can get them fairly cheap as they come out.

[Aaronardo]

Do you have a Walmart? The DVDs are there, too.

Yes, but not on sale. Going for their original price. Facepalming myself because I just missed a closing sale on near my K-Mart. Would've definitely picked them up then. Damn.

[raph27]

Also, think about size. Size, people! This is why people like me love boxsets. Better than individual releases in every way.
.....buuuuuuut a boxset is just the same exact DVDs, in their cases, in a cardboard case....the size isn't any different.....

He's talking about a complete season release that comes in one case.

As a person who owns a range of 400 to 500 DVDs from my day, not wanting to buy separate cases for a space of 1 to 3 is quite frankly a pretty dumb excuse. 2 DVDs length?

That's literally the size of one of those collectable VHS cases.

http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/moPY7CXDa7B2tbgKqUky5Gw.jpg

You guys complain about those in the day? Or the one episode tapes for 20 bucks?

[Ramboraph4life aka Matt]

For those who want to know, the DVD was pushed back by about a month it looks like:

http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Teenage-Mutant-Ninja-Turtles-Volume-5/19789

So instead it will be around August 5th.

Plus, something that made me go :o

"Also, although it's not a television show, we'll bend the rules and mention that a week later, August 12th, Paramount will also be releasing a DVD for the 2012 documentary, Turtle Power: The Definitive History Of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles."

Say what? (I know, it was mentioned on that thread, but had to mention that as well as let people know about the delay of the new Nick DVD).

[Aaronardo]

Pretty sure the OT's Season 3 boxset that came out last year that had 48 episodes on it was the size of a normal DVD box (1 DVD length). Sure, other countries have that "Hey! We're taping the DVDs together!" thing, but if they're seriously taking this long to release it to other countries, surely they have something else planned if they do release one at all.
I don't expect special treatment, I'm just saying if it's taking them THIS long, something else must be going on...

Haha...stupid canadians.

[saintsaucey]

Bt Dubs I love this show and am glad for the individual dvds. I wish they would come sooner but still.

[Shiro Kame]

Yes, another TMNT volume! I got the first 4, so I'm excited for this one.

[Aaronardo]

Well, good news to anyone who's getting these DVDs. Except if they live in Canada. Sorry, Canada, don't know why they be pickin' on ya.

[Shiro Kame]

I live in Canada, but I get them from online.

[dizcoduck]

I would prefer boxsets of the seasons, but I still buy the individual releases to make sure I have a real copy in hand. I usually pick them up week 1 from Target that usually has them on sale for $7.99. I think that's a very fair price considering the amount of episodes included on each one. It's not like other shows where there are only 4-5 episodes from $10-12.

[sluggedup226]

I'm not sure if the July 1st is still the release date or not, but I was able to pick up the DVD yesterday from Walmart and it includes a free ticket code for the movie.

[Midnight Mutant]

Finally! I'll be picking up the DVD for sure! I'll probably get the Blu-rays or boxsets (if they are released) later for better quality on my T.V. but for now, I'm content with the DVDs because I can play them on my laptop!

Also: Free movie ticket? Hm. *narrows eyes thoughtfully* That might be the only way I go see that movie.

[Donatello19]

So, it comes with a free ticket, huh? :lol:

[saintsaucey]

Sweet. a2345

[fridaynightdestination]

Sooooo is it coming out July 1st or August 5th?

[Sabacooza]

July US August Canada

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, okay. Well, that's good that it isn't pushed back for us.

[Sabacooza]

Thank God. Right? I can't really understand why Canada gets it so late though. Maybe over seas but Canada? That's weird.

[HugeBadWolf]

Has anyone seen a UK pre-order for this yet?
Checked Amazon, Zavvi etc but no joy :(

Cheers,
Doug

[saintsaucey]

I looked last night but it wasn't on the shelf at my walmart. Sad...also no new tmnt figures yet. I really want rahzar, newtralizer and slash

[BubblyShell22]

Um, that's because it's coming out next Tuesday which is July 1st.

[saintsaucey]

This guy got his early. I was hoping my walmart screwed up as well.

[Storm Eagle]

Um, that's because it's coming out next Tuesday which is July 1st.

sluggedup226 mentioned finding copies at his local Wal-Mart. Even I checked a couple of Wal-Marts to see if they might have it. Sometimes stores end up making mistakes (or more like "happy accidents") like that. The Best Buy I used to live closer to even had a habit of stocking the DVDs for the 2K3 series a bit early too.

The first time I've seen something like that happen is back in 2002, when the HMV that used to be around in NYC had Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone ready to buy when I was there one Saturday. They were meant to start selling it the following week on the Tuesday.

[saintsaucey]

Walmart has a really bad habbit of it. I guess they don't care if they get sued. I got a season of buffy early. Not sure if it was 6 or 7

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, I see. I saw the DVD advertised in the Target ad, so it'll be available there.

[saintsaucey]

Picked up the Good The Bad and Casey Jones tonight at midnight. I made the stockman go back to the back and get it for me. Yay.

[Midnight Mutant]

I just got mine at midnight too! Whoot! Bought the first one! : D
It was only $10. I thought it would be at least $14-$15, $12 at he very least. But it was $9.96.

Sweet! :]

The two disc set coming next will probably be 14. If they do like they did for season 1 it will contain the the rest of the season.

[fridaynightdestination]

So, it's out. I'm still getting caught up on the show, but luckily I'm the last four episodes of Season One so not too far behind. So how is the new DVD for anyone who has it? What episodes does it have?

Well this threw me off:

[Omega]

picked it up today

[saintsaucey]

Well this threw me off:

http://i59.tinypic.com/am42ms.png

That's weird. Maybe it was the online price? The dvd is good. It has a casey jones featurette. Not a long one but its there. I wish they would give us a commentary on one episode per release thoug. I get that theseare for kids but still.

[saintsaucey]

Also I found out that my Mutagen Mayhem dvd was messed up so I went back tonight and got a new one. If anyone needs the o card and slip in cover for that dvd let me know. I have a spare.

[Shreddhead]

Cool orange color....very halloweeny! Thanks for the post.

Ugh, way too much of Ciro's Flyers love coming through here.

[BlueKatana]

Picked it up at Target as it was $8.99, you got a free box of TMNT Mac and Cheese, and the $8 off a ticket for the movie.

Also, it seems the Walmart version doesn't come with a digital copy this time.

[ThatMarvelousGuy]

(I'm in Canada)
I saw in my local Target flyer that they are re-releasing each volume of the Nick Turtles (and Turtles Forever Movie), but the only difference is that they come with $8 off to go see TMNT 2014 Movie. Other than that they are the exact same. They are all priced at $8.99 (except Ultimate Showdown). I'm not sure what's happening now with The Good, the Bad and Casey Jones, now that the release date is changed in Canada

[BlueKatana]

Getting another ticket would be an excuse for me to pick up the Turtles Forever DVD, will have to see if they have that promotion stateside.

[saintsaucey]

They didn't put one in with mutagen mayhem but maybe it was an older copy. And who ever mentioned the lack of digital copy was right.

[saintsaucey]

Ugh, way too much of Ciro's Flyers love coming through here.

I don't know what this means.

[KingGrimlock]

Any Uker's got news on this set? I normally rent these from Lovefilm and they put the preorder up super early. Don't want to be paying to import this and the first volume from season 2 for it to drop here.

I got mine from Target an hour ago, and I didn't get any of that stuff. I don't care about the macaroni and cheese, but there was nothing about a movie ticket.

It would have been on the front of the o card. A peel off sticker with info on the back. And let me just say how much I hate peel of stickers. They damage the product.

[The Fifth Turtle]

I don't know what this means.

The Flyers as in the hockey team. Google image search them and you will see their team colors then take a look at the box of the DVD.

I figured that would be the case, but none of them had it. So I just said "screw it".

Ugh I know. They take the "paint" right off the cover art. You have to be me off incredibly slow and even then it's not fool proof.

[Storm Eagle]

So I went to Wal-Mart and saw copies with the movie promotion. I picked one up and returned the copy I got from Target. Wal-Mart is selling it for about a dollar more, but it might be worth it.

[saintsaucey]

Had you already opened it? Cause I didn't think you could return something that had been opened.

[Storm Eagle]

I never opened the one I got from Target.

[JTH]

Plan on getting mine today.

Need to ask though what is the order the episodes are listed.

Did they keep Volume 2 episodes in story order like Volume 1 of Season 2, or did they go back to airdate order like the Season 1 sets.

I guess the simpler way to put the question is:
Which episode is listed first on Volume 2? Kraang Conspiracy or Good, Bad, & Casey Jones?

If it's K.C.: It's still in story order
If it's G.B. CJ: It's back to airdate order

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Woot! Definitely have to pick it up when I got to Wal-Mart on Monday (when I get paid.) And if it has the promo for a movie ticket, I'm all OVER that! I'm already switching from my usual DP to Crush for the time being for the codes on those, so this will be even better. Plus, it's got some of the best eps from this season so far. Win-win!

"The Kraang Conspiracy" comes first.

[Darth Knuckles]

I'll start by saying that I really like the Nick TMNT cartoon. I quickly knew I'd want to own this series and put it right next ot me 1987 TMNT series. Well I was one of those people that was going to wait and get this series in at least season sets if not a complete series set. Since I saw the information thanks to this site about the upcoming Nick TMNT Complete Season 1 Set, it didn't sound so great. I didn't love the cover art, which I know could still change, or the special features. I also didn't like the description of the set making it sound like it's size would be three regular DVD cases in a slipcover. I just wasn't feeling it after such a long wait for it.

I had been seeing the Nick season volumes since July 1st and how they were advertising a free movie ticket to see the new TMNT movie in theatres. It was tempting then but I wasn't going to break down now. Since the Season 1 description however, I just went for it! I went to my local Wal-Mart and got the first two volumes of season one in a nice slipcase bundle that had the free movie ticket included. $9.99! Sweet! And it also had, now this is where I get really dorky, the first two volumes' pictures on the spine of the slipcover. That way all four turtles and The Shredder are on the spine of the slipcover and can be seen when put away. I really like to see pictures on the spines of my DVDs. I just do. I also got Mutagen Mayhem with the slipcover for $9.99 as well as The Good, The Bad, and Casey Jones with the slipcover for $9.99 as well. The latter also has the free movie ticket for the movie.

At this point I had all of the Nick cartoon DVDs with slipcovers and characters on the spine except for Season 1, Vol. 3 Ultimate Showdown. I didn't buy it at Wal-Mart because they did have it, but without the slipcover. So two days later I went to Target and it was my last hope of finding Ultimate Showdown with a slipcover. I went down the aisle and I saw them. Three of them but...no slipcover.....except for the last one in the back! BOOM Ultimate Showdown with slipcover in perfect condition! Like I said, I'm a dork. And it just so happened to be on sale for $13! So I was very happy about that.

All in all I got the entire first season all with slipcovers for $22.99, which will probably be cheaper than the complete first season set when it comes out in a few months. I also got Season 2, Vol. 1 & 2 for $19.98 with slipcovers. I really like Rahzar and Casey on the spines! I'm just happy I'll get to rewatch this series sooner than I thought I would plus I get to take myself and my girlfriend to see the new TMNT movie for free!

I do hope that the next volume for season two features Tiger Claw on the spine!!!

[saintsaucey]

The first thing I do is turn the slip sheet inside out so the character picture and bio is facing out. The slip cover is actually called an 'O' Card in the factory where the dvd's are packaged.

That's an interesting way to do that but that makes cool sense. I was able to watch the first two volumes of season one over the weekend. Really enjoyed the first double episode and especially seeing "The Gauntlet" again!

Is it just me, or was it annoying to have the opening theme song randomly taken out of about half of the episodes? Why would they do that? It's a little jerking at first. I hope I get used to it.

Another question. I have a few of the DVDs with the slipcover / 'O' Cards that have the sticker for a free movie ticket for the new TMNT movie. Do you have to peel the sticker off to get the "code" or whatever it is you need to claim the free ticket? I didn't find anything in my DVD cases when I opened them to claim it. I was wondering how to get the free movie ticket.

EDIT: I reread in this thread that the information I need for the free movie ticket is indeed on the back of the sticker. Thanks saintsaucey for that!

Has anyone heard any murmurings about when this DVD will be released in the UK?
