Well the box set is being made for the so-called die hard fans. I just like the idea of knocking out nearly half of the first 700 episodes in one fell swoop. I started taping episodes regularly when Space started, and even tried getting all the pre-Space episodes taped afterwards, but Fox Kids didn't show them all again. ABC Family and ToonDisney also just showed select episodes. So (God) bless Shout! Factory and TimeLife for coming through for me. I can even get rid of all those tapes. I've packed them up and they're getting shipped to a recycling facility. I'm also interested in the special features. Hopefully the remaining seasons (from Lightspeed Rescue to R.P.M.) will get released like this as well.

Its a 3.75 inch figure. Dont let that be a factor in your buying choice.

It sure as hell wasn't a factor in my decision for getting the set. It was pretty much the fact that it would have discs with special features, and the fact that I could score nearly the first half of the 700 episodes quickly like I mentioned above. The price is a bit hefty, but it's better than what others thought it might be. Plus a discount code is helping me save some money, and I'm not so impatient that I'm inclined to pay extra just to get the goods to arrive at my door faster. It's just too bad that my state is among those that Time Life charges tax for. Anyway I'll just see about selling the action figure on eBay. Its mold has most likely been broken (and that's probably what they meant by "exclusive"), so there may be some collectors who'd be more than happy to take it off my hands.
