So what do you think of these episodes. I think these are probably the best episodes of the third season. I can't wait to watch them again.

Long ago, in Middle-Earth, there existed a fifth volume of TMNT, the news of it's release schedule and information was welcomed with joy and jubilation, so momentous was that day of divine news, that many Hobbits still live on pretending the news is recent and groundbreaking, hoping to relive that day...

lol
Yeah, I just want info on volume 6 and up.

haha. You crack me up.

yea he really does, and I am ready for volume 5 release already and the ress of the episodes.

How many episodes will volume six contain?

... the final 11 of Molly Bode's Year Three.

It's news to me. :roll:

whih episodes do you think are the best from vol 5. Favourites of mine include: orporate Raidars from Dimension X, Pizza By The Shred, LEatherhead: Terror of the Swamps, Leatherhead meets Rat King, and my all time favourite episode Beware of the Lotus... What do you think?

Oh yes Krangstein, some of the episodes here are some of my faves, and were the ones i taped years ago, but were then rubbed over. "Corporate Raiders from Dimension X", "The Making of Metalhead", "Beware the Lotus" and "Blast From the Past".

Other people have mentioned this before, but the front cover illustration of Raphael is rather odd-looking and not the same style of look as in the cartoon, look at that chin on him lol.

I totally agree. You'd think they could plaster the cover with old, stock photos of the Turtles -- anything is better than this. Ugh...

I think the vol. 5 cover is much better than the vol. 4 cover, which was basically the picture of Donatello from Vol. 3, only bigger. vol. 5 is deffinately an improvement.

what would have looked best would have been a cover with the turtles fighting ret king, leatherhead, lotus, etc. it's the way to go but they never do it.
Hell if I knew who to talk to I'd put together some killer box art for them for free...but I don't know who to contact.

my faves:
"USAGI YOJIMBO"
"USAGI, COME HOME"
"THE MAKING OF METALHEAD"


That's still the butt-ugliest box-art I ever seen, even worse than 'Meet Casey Jones' with its heroine-addicted depiction of our vigilante pal. What do you think, Krangstein? :P

it's obvious that Lions Gate is trying to be like the new show, ehen designing the covers. You can see the Turtles look more like the 2003 version than the 1987 version. I find that very odd, that they'd feel they have to do that cause the 1987 show has a lot bigger fanbase and doesn't have to look like another cartoon series. Agree?

Definitely. It wouldn't take that much effort from Lions Gate's to make some decent DVD cases with classic 'toon art and a consistant design, like every other TV show DVD out there. :roll:

I know we should just all be glad the franchise is still around for everyone to enjoy, but still -- sometimes I can't help but shake my head at the poor decisions these companies are making, especially in regards to the DVDs (old toon and new.) 'Makes me so damn mad...

I think that starting with volume 6, Lion's Gate home entertainment should release the new Turtles DVDs in 2 sorts of cover:

1 for those who like the colorfulness and happiness of volume 1's cover,
the other for those who prefer the slightly more serious covers from volumes 2-5.

That's a really bad idea and will never happen.

I agree. They will do what they have been doing. Single disc releases with 12 episodes and bad artwork. What matters is the episodes. Lets be happy for those.

I don't care about the artwork either, just glad the episodes are finally being released.
