Wait...I am confused here. By a couple of things.

Them switching from singles to a 2-disc set isn't too surprising, shows have done that fairly often enough. But...Volume 2 (which comes out tomorrow if I remember right) has 7 episodes, right? The first DVD had 6. That's 13 episodes. Whereas this set is listed as having 12 episodes...meaning a total of 25. Season 1 is still listed as having 26 episodes.

I'm not the best at math, but um...what? Is there an episode we're NOT going to get for some reason? It's not the one that hasn't aired yet is it, since we're getting a run-around on it's airing, I hope, gah.

Also, 'Tales from the Turtle Lair' is the web-comic with voices that the Nick website had up, right? If this is including parts 3-6, does that second disc have parts 1-2, or are we just not getting those either?

Yeah, seems really weird as this set would go up to episode 25 of Season 1.

*NinjaPug* · 07-08-2013, 07:02 PM

Maybe they are considering Eps 25 & 26 as 'one' episode since its a one hour two-parter. Otherwise this doesn't make sense.

...Oh YEAH. I forgot, they are doing that with the finale like they did with the premiere, right? And they treated both parts of that as one episode, at least in the menu, I believe.

That still leaves the first parts of the digital comic thing. Are those on the 2nd DVD that's coming out?

But that would still be double the running time.

*Bauer536* · 07-08-2013, 07:30 PM

All this time, why didn't they do this with the first 13 episodes?

I thought we were going to get four DVDs, not three. Does this mean that THIS is Season 1, Vol. 2, and that they are going to release a set that contains both discs being released so far?

I can't answer the first question of why not just do this from the beginning (other than hazarding a guess at trying to nab all the more cash from them), but as for the latter, I doubt they will. The last Scooby show, Mystery Inc., started off as singles and then went to double-disc sets, and they never went back and re-released the early singles as double sets.

Different shows, different companies, yeah - but I'm still betting the first two will remain singles. I could see Wal-mart maybe shrink-wrapping them together for a slightly higher price though.

This isn't a re-release of the first two DVDs. This is the next 12 episodes of Season 1.

I didn't see a listed running time, only a # of episodes. I have no clue what they're going to include on this DVD but it would be odd for them to include the 1st part of the season finale but not the 2nd part.

Did the 1st Volume DVD list the pilot as two episodes? I'm holding out hope for the full season on Blu-Ray.

*CyberCubed* · 07-08-2013, 07:44 PM

Yeah I'm not buying any of these DVD releases anyway, but I still like to keep informed on what they release.

We might get a blu-ray set around Christmas time since these DVD releases will be done with Season 1 by then.

I already know that. But my question is when will they be released as a two-disc set if the next volume is?

Chaotix12345 · 07-08-2013, 11:06 PM

Awesome to finally see the Nick toon move up to 2-disc sets. Definitely going to have to start following these releases now.

Judging by the fact that one of the extras on the Enter Shredder DVD is "digital comics," I would assume that parts 1 and 2 ARE included.

Actually...

I ended up looking that up myself, so yeah, I'm happy that seems to be the case.

...Huh. I'll be damned.

Though that's a complete season set, which I think we could eventually get for Turtles. What I strictly meant was I don't see them going back and making a 2-disc set just with the first 13 episodes alone. Stranger things have happened though.

FlawedCoil82 · 07-09-2013, 01:43 AM

Surely they aren't going to be stupid enough to skip the entire 'I, Monster' episode, right?

That would totally suck big time.

That's in the second DVD Enter Shredder. First DVD had 6, second has 7, 3rd has 12.

Toby Barrett · 07-09-2013, 12:14 PM

According to this review, it ISN'T on the set.

*CyberCubed* · 07-09-2013, 12:56 PM

The Rat King episode must have been too scary for little kids. I wonder if this will prevent him from appearing in any future episodes too.

Why Nick decided to make Rat King look like an undead priest is beyond me. Shame if true.

Totally

It aired on TV, it airs quite a bit. It's not scary at all, even for kids (my brothers, 6 and 8, enjoy it)

LivingMutagen · 07-09-2013, 01:03 PM

According to the review, they switch New Girl in Town and I, Monster around on the DVD (it mentions Karai so yeah)
