More 4Kids Series Coming to DVD

Jon · 02-24-2008, 01:27 PM

Though some here don't care much for these shows, thought I'd spread the word for any who don't know (and might like them).

The new TMNT DVD (Season 2 Part 1) has a flyer advertising some of their DVDs, and at the bottom has a "Coming Soon" area listing Dinosaur King, Viva Pinata and Chaotic.

Well, that's cool for the fans of those shows. I'm sure they'll be happy. As for me, I just don't care one way or the other. I never got into any of those shows.

Jon · 02-25-2008, 10:48 AM

Well yeah, that's why I put the disclaimer in too.

Another reason I posted of this is, this is the first I had seen info of those series being planned for DVD. And I tend to check Amazon and DVD-News sites on a frequent basis.

Dino King apparently is a no brainer, since they're going to try to make that one work. Chaotic as well. I thought the merchandising ship has saled on Pinata, since they didn't even really try, and just had a BK kids meal promotion.

Anyway, there's a rumor they're looking at another release of Shaman King. I doubt it would be a rerelease of the uncuts that Funimation and 4Kids had a dispute over. But that would be something.

Sonic X has been collected into season sets now as well.

Shaman King! WOOT!!

I mean... A rumor's better than nothing.

*Drtooth* · 02-25-2008, 02:19 PM

With Shaman king, I'd rather see some company sublicense a Japanese track only Subtitled edition. One that referes to him as "Chocolove" for crying out loud. Not saying I didn't like the dub, but I'd rather see anything in its original language with subtitles.

Where the hell is Winx Club season 3 at, 4kids?

Yeah, would be nice if they got to finishing the series on DVD! ... And, in the case of DVDs, Funimation is the one doing it.

Need I bring up Gargoyles season 2 again? And perhaps Animaniacs volume 4, if things don't turn out well...

Yeah, know well of those (as I too have the DVDs that have been released for both).
And, in Funimation's case (like that) have the short-lived Yu-Gi-Oh and Shaman King Uncut DVDs. As well as the likes of Ultimate Muscle and Kirby dubs.

Ultimate Muscle was a case of low sales. A second volume was planned, but never went anywhere. Which depressed the hell out of me, since the second volume had the fight with Dialbolic, my favorite in the series. However, with the Yugioh and Shaman King ones, it got tricky. There was a dispute between Funi and 4K over the profits. 2 Shaman King volumes were widely release, 2 more had a small run, and the fifth volume never made it to print.

*BubblyShell22* · 02-28-2008, 08:32 AM

I'd love to see Shaman King come back to DVD as well as the rest of Winx Club. Actually, they never finished all of season 1 either. Granted, I only have two DVDs of Winx Club, Bloom's Secret Past and Stolen Dragonfire, which was the last DVD I saw. They need to finish that off and bring in Season 2 and 3.

Seasons 1 and 2 of Winx Club are out on DVD. It's just Season 3 that has yet to be released.
Season 1 has 5 single-disc releases, while Season 2 is two 2-disc releases.

No. Never will be, never ever. Because 4kids screwed up marketting for the cartoon series, leading to many merchandising projects going undone, Nintendo and 4kids aren't really happy with each other at the moment.

Jon · 02-29-2008, 11:49 AM

^ Strangely, the old Kirby DVDs are apparently seeing re-release. As I happened to see one listed on Amazon while checking the upcoming DVDs by date listings. With it scheduled to come out again May 20th.

*Wildcat* · 02-29-2008, 05:22 PM

How did 4Kids screw up marketing?...I remember that at one point Kirby was canceled and then came back one day for awhile til they finished the series.

Well I guess whatever is on Amazon is all we'll get...3 volumes and the series finale movie,not bad.

It's a looooong story. Nintendo just was angry that it wasn't as big as it would have, could have, and should have been. They even went so far as saying it would be their next Pokemon. which sucks, if you ask me. I just want a King DeeDeeDee action figure. I have to get expensive stuff from Japan. But that's neither here nor there. it would be great to see them collected in season sets or something, similar to TMNT.

Season 1 and 2 were released in full actually. Season 1 was 5 DVDs and Season 2 was done in two Two Disc sets.

Oh...well I really enjoyed "Kirby Right Back at Ya!"...I dont see how it could have been the next "Pokemon" but I thought it was a fun and funny series.

I know what you mean about having to buy expensive import toys,I use www.animemate.com they have a superb collection of rare game and cartoon items,I bought a Metal Sonic from them a few years back...it cost me $280 dollars but it was worth it to me.But not everything is expensive...they had a King DDD plush I was gona buy and it was only $38 dollars,but its not in stock at the moment but they always restock stuff eventually... I wonder where they get thier items,my Metal Sonic is from 1994and only released in Japan for "Sonic the Fighters".

I want an Escargoon figure...the snail guy that was partner to King DeeDeeDee
