Wow @ season 5 box.

X · 08-07-2007, 12:57 PM

You know I must say I am impressed. While I don't complain about how the boxes to DVD's look, I do kind of wish they would re-release seaons 1-2 together, and season 3, and season 4 with this same style box.

I am very impressed how they made this box look, and I would gladly rebuy the past seasons if they were thrown in the same type of box, and this is coming from someone who usually doesn't care what boxes look like.

Its really a great piece of artwork. Its really awesome marketing too. Seems with each "season" they get better and better.

I do wonder, though, why aren't the toon likenesses used? why do we get the multicolored generic looking turtles? is it a licensing thing? Obviously plenty of retro images exist out there.

PS - is there an episode listing anywhere in this set? I don't see any. haha.

*Cure* · 08-07-2007, 09:04 PM

How about a link to the box art?

*Masked Ninja* · 08-07-2007, 10:09 PM

This is the pizza box one, right? I dunno, I wasn't that impressed at first... it's the same hybrid Turtle images, just presented in a much more creative way. Though apparently the discs are all printed to look like pizzas... now THAT I like.

*VaughnMichael* · 08-07-2007, 10:11 PM

I think people are talking about the box's design it's self but hell I could be wrong.
The box idea is wonderfull the art is um yeah pretty crappy still...

I guess I'm among the minority who doesn't quite like the packaging.

JetsAndHeels · 08-07-2007, 10:33 PM

I didn't buy the season 4 set, but I am thinking of getting the season 5 one. Seems more recommendations are going toward that one and not just because of the packaging.

They both have good episodes on them is a good reason.

That is a very good reason.

I'll go with season 5 because its cheaper.

*Spitfire* · 08-07-2007, 10:55 PM

Good choice cause Season 5 has better episodes in my opinion.

I agree. I was just trying to justify me buying season 5 and not season 4.

Fiendishglow · 08-07-2007, 11:56 PM

Here's a link with pictures of the box. Pretty f'n sweet.

Can't wait to pick this one up.

the packaging is intense...you have to work to get into it, but I'm just being lazy

It's pretty awesome and I for one am glad the discs have pizza on them instead of the crappy turtle pics

That's gotta be the neatest packaging I've ever seen. I want it for the packaging alone

.

JetsAndHeels · 08-09-2007, 05:04 PM

It is neat packaging..but after opening mine I got hungry for some pizza.

Risawn · 08-09-2007, 08:35 PM

*laughs*

Sometimes it sticks as well when you are trying to put it back together.

I've noticed the boxart gets better and better. I also like how they are actually trying to put extra features on it. The little behind the scenes look at the 'turtles' is interesting, I'm trying to picture Cam Clarke as Michelangelo.

I can't stand Season 4's box art, mostly because its a pain in the fourth to store on your shelf.

Fiendishglow · 08-09-2007, 09:07 PM

^ What I do is take the case out of the slip case for Season 4 and place it in line with the rest of my dvds, then I take the slip case and put it in front of the dvds outward covering the spines of the tmnt dvds. It looks very nice with the Raph face sticking outward.

I kept the outer plastic box thing to store it in.

nope, I hated it too. Not because I thought it looked ugly or anything I just hated how freakin complicated they made the packageing. I was like WTF.

Everything else good though
