So no more OT DVD's then?
 

It is almost December (when they usually release a new OT DVD,) and still there is no news on any kind of release. They usually don't wait this long, which leads me to believe maybe they gave up on it?

Has anyone heard any news on season 6 coming to DVD anytime soon?

-X-

We're going to have to wait until we actually hear something official to start worrying. That's all I'm gonna say.

It would be a cheat to end the series half off. But then they never made follow up DVD's for Alf the Animated Series and Alf Tales.

And, of course, the whole "selling trouble" issue that halted Gargoyles too.

As for Classic TMNT, same here (wouldn't worry, least til actually have news one way or the other).

Well did the Season 5 set sell well?

I also think maybe Lionsgate wants to spread out the releases because there's not that many more episodes left. In 2007 we got all of Season 4 and 5, which totals to about 70 episodes. That's a ton to release in a single year.

Maybe they're just saving Season 6 for next year.

Believe me the TMNT DVDs are selling very well. The OT DVDs went fast, we always had like 5 of each in stock but we always got like 5 of each every week if not more then once a week. They sold better then the movie and the new toon.

So I see no selling issues, that is just my area though so who knows.

Anyone got any contacts within Lionsgate? Maybe we can ask about it.

Gobo started a thread a while ago that had their e-mail address in it.



I'm not worried about the series getting released or not, but I'm pissed about this ****** release schedule.

The three releases a year just started the year before and since they started doing season sets maybe they decided to only do 2 per year. If we were doing 3 volumes per year we would still be releasing season 4.

So I wouldn't be too scared yet, also remember the 1 year wait we had from volume 1 to volume 2 (season1/2)?

Yeah. unless we get a confirmation that Lionsgate has stopped doing these all together, we shouldn't really fuss much. Maybe if there is a delay, it would be that they're trying to get the European episodes and the Planet of the Turtleoids special to fit into their releases.

I know about the European episodes being a sideseason, but is there a reason why Planet of the Turtleoids wouldn't fit as the first episodes of the next release? Forgive me if I sound dumb, but as a kid, I didn't see more than the first Slash episode after the show went to CBS (I have no clue why that was the only CBS episode I saw). Most of the show is still new territory for me, which makes it all the more fun :D

With the Planet of the Turtleoids episodes as part of Season 6, that would make it 18 episodes. Meaning Liongate is probably planning on the same quality release as Season 5. Then we have the Sideseason (13 Episodes) that could be it's own release, letting people put it where they want it. Then Season 7 (14 Episodes), which I guess can hold it's own as a stand alone set. Lastly Season 8, Season 9, and Season 10 are all 8 episodes each, so I hope they make these 3 into one set (And with the "un-aired episodes" and fixed ordering...I can dream :P).

PS The topic title scared the living crap out of me, you peoples got to stop doing that to me :P

I wonder if that would be the reason for the delay. Would they be choosing to put the rest of the seasons into a collection, or will they release them in single disk form like before?

Seriously. No offense guys, but there are just too many Chicken Little threads on the Internet.

Still, I'm way behind on the cartoon DVDs. I'm still on the ones that were 12-13 episodes per release.

How are those new toon ones coming along? The ones that were half season sets?

Seem to be 'stalled' at the moment (as Season 1 is all that's been released).

I think there was a thread about that not too long ago in the new toon discussion. I think the next one is coming out in Febuary.

Season 2 part 1 is coming in february... then part two won't be here till I have kids...

Or September. :ohwell:

Don't forget 4kids is also finally releasing Season 5 on DVD next year so we technically get done with Season 2 and 5 in 2008.

After that all they'd have to re-release is collectors sets for Season 3 and 4 since FF was already released properly.

Yep, but that's still too much time between releases... if you ask me :D

I get so flustered when I think of all these releases and how far behind I'm getting. I'm not one to order things off the web, so I like to pick things up while they are still easy to find in stores.

:lol: I'm the exact opposite, I've got all the releases (except the NT 4 epiosde discs) and I'm counting the days for anything new.
