Congratulations Nice collection. I was so happy when I completed my collection. Had a hard time getting some of the DVDs but I got them in the end. Anyway great to see that you've finished collecting them.

[LeoRaph]

Thanks tmntpower1988!

Yeah, I know what you mean the other hardest ones for me was the Season 4 Box 1 and the Donatello Fat Box. Had to get The Donatello Fat Box in like new condition but all discs and dvd covers were in perfect condition so I was very lucky there

I'm sure if I collected the NTSC ones though it would be much harder and expensive...still it's a great feeling

*goes on my knees and tears leak from my eyes*

I don't suppose you have a good set of figures from the Classic TMNT to add in there, do you?

Thanks pharaohyami5000 & TheCanadiandrome!

I do, I managed to save my original Leo, Raph, Don, Casey, Usagi, Splinter and Shredder (They were at my grandparents and somehow survived the teen years) and I got a 1997 version of Mikey couple of years ago to finish them off but they're with the party wagon (Nick Classic Release)on a bigger shelf

[DVD]

So that's what a complete 2003 set looks like. Nice.
I completed S1,S2 and Fast Forward on dvd.
I have a complete set on my toons drive but it's nice to have the real copies (even the Next Mutation) of the Turtles shows.
I'm still counting on a full series release in the future, hopefully in a van, like the classic series.
Again, the completed dvd set on a shelf looks impressive.

I'm selling the complete seasons 1 thru 4 on DVD in the Buy/Sell/Trade section on these forums, if anyone is looking to complete a big chunk of this series.

Heh, fat box.

Man, I'm so glad I bought these DVDs as they were released. Got them all at Wal Mart or Best Buy, if I couldn't find them in a week of release I'd hit up Amazon, which didn't happen often. I think Croc Attack! took me a while, and ended up buying a VHS, then a month later picked up the DVD. The only ones I don't have are the season 1 and 2 sets (not a big fan of double dipping unless upgrading formats), Turtle Forever, since its not the full version (which I have saved on three USB sticks juuuuuuuust in case), and the BttS DVDs since they were never released region 1 (USB sticks...they're great).

I'll post pics when I get a chance.

one of these days i have faith we'll get a Full Series proper release

Finally completed my Region-1 DVD collection after getting my hands on Turtles Against H.A.T.E. today



I really need to fix Raph's face

Thanks buddy!

Turtles Against Hate has sailed off the deep end in terms of price. I sold mine last year for a hundred bucks and wondered if the buyer got ripped off, but now they're clearing $200 on ebay. Holy....
Congrats on acquiring it. It truly is the toughest of all 2k3 dvds.

[Leo656]

Man, I'm lucky I snagged that sum'bitch the day it came out; it was the only one at Best Buy, and I had zero idea that it would ever be as rare or expensive as it is.

I have very rarely seen it show up at places like the Used bin at FYE for dirt cheap, but only maybe twice, and I think the last time was a few years ago. At the time I had no idea it was rare, and I already had one, so I ignored it. Wish I'd snagged the spare, I could'a made some quick scratch. Ah well.

And yeah, I have the same problem with Raphael's face on the spine of my DVDs. Haaaaate it.

Congratulations evan2000!!!!!!! That's Awesome

It's a nice feeling, I hear you on the Raph face too. Initially, I was mixing up both the US and Aus ones but it was just too pricey so I just went all out on the Australian ones instead. Also that damn Raph face was the last straw after buying 3 replacement 'Notes From The Underground' NTSC dvds from amazon hoping to luck out on the left side of his face

Thanks LeoRaph! I totally got that feeling you're talking about. At this stage it's not just about the money you're willing to spend, but also the dedication to look up eBay day after day hoping for your missing piece to appear. And after a thousand years when it finally shows up, you still have to bid like the rest, and may or may not win at the end, as there could be people more desperate than you. Having gone through these a couple of times, the complete collection on my shelf now is more than pleasing to my eyes, it's the hands down satisfaction! And the certainty that I'll be able to complete the mass upscaling project I am working on the 2003 series (preview here)!

Oh, and if you're wondering if I got the Australian set as well (including BttS), yes, I got 'em, however my kind friend at Australia is keeping the entire set until he returns in May and brings back to me. I'll need a new shelf by then!

It doesn't even bother me that Nick is starting to rerelease of the 2003 show bit by bit, as those probably aren't any better than the 4Kids original release anyway (other than the lower price). It's hilarious to see people's reaction to the news in that thread

As for the Raph face, there's no use getting a new set from Amazon again as it will most likely be the wrong one. To get the right one, it has to be very old stock, or a used set. I was so close to getting this 22-volume bundle just for it (and Turtles Against H.A.T.E.), but the bidding price exceeded my budget quickly, and I was basically competing with others who wanted the entire bundle, not just the 2 out of 22 that I was shooting for. Later on, I managed to get Turtles Against H.A.T.E. from another seller at a lower price (but still pricey).

So, I'll stick with what I have for now until I figure out how to reprint the cover myself, as soon as I have access to a good color laser printer. Stay tuned!

think they'll make a complete series someday?

That's a question we've been debating for years. Frankly, all we can do is hope...

And after Nick's lackluster upcoming DVD releases, we all need to hope a little harder.

For those who don't have it yet, there's a bunch of UK Turtles Forever DVDs on Amazon UK going cheap right now. Get 'em while they're hot.

Hoping. Really. Hard. Over here.
