Never use anything on Wikipedia as fact.

They're not going to spread their DVD releases over SIX years. Either they'll put more episodes on DVD, or they'll cancel it before all the seasons are there.

And Wikipedia ain't the most credible source ever. Possibly, it's just some fan estimation, based on the preceding DVD releases.

Oh, jeez. Look what I started... No, I just did a quick estimation myself, and 2012 would be the projected date for the last volume assuming nothing causes them to abandon their current trends. Presumably, there will be 17 or 18 volumes in all (by how they're grouping them according to Molly Bode's ep guide on the official site). And, they've released two volumes per year for the past two years, so... As long as we don't get another "Insane in the Membrane" excuse of some new hotshot marketing jerks convincing the powers that be that they're losing money by selling so many eps for such a small price, the complete series will be released before 2013 for sure.

My opinion? They'll kill these single releases within 3 discs, then rebox the things as seasons, or just stop alltogether like those DiC shows. Single releases NEVER finish with a whole series. Ever. It's just the law of nature.

Actually that's not true, the year 2006 will give us volume 4, 5 and 6. thats 3 volumes per year, not 2. Volume 6 will be released in December.

Whachoo talkin' 'bout, Krangstein? A volume six has been confirmed? Where?? I wanna see! But, for the past two years, it was only at two volumes per year. <http://www.ninjaturtles.com/html/dvd_classictoons.html> In my opinion, it likely won't continue unless it speeds up. But, the ETA from an outsider's perspective is no later than late 2012.

Don't you walk away when I'm talkin' at you!

No it's not been confirmed, but there has been about 4 months between releases for the past 3 volumes so I assume they won't slow down with the releases, so you better recalculate...

I do not recommend on trusting wkipedia.org because anybody can change the information on that website. I will be very surprised if the rumor is true but I highly doubt it.

actually I made some estimates in two different threads (will post the links shortly) and it would be released way faster, we're almost finished with S3, S4 is the last 'long' season, and the other seasons will be finished very quickly (specially if they count the already released last season episodes on the first volume).

as have I and many others, in fact I spend a lot of time on wikipedia learning about random stuff,

any person that visits wiki can edit any of the articles though, so I can change an entry saying France won WWII..of course the site is well moderated and most people have usually good ethics and just help Wikipedia be better,(though you could get some wrong information) but with anything like personal opinion or something not yet released/known it can be a bunch of crap,

so yeah, you should be fine, just don't beleive everything 100%.

Too bad you get banned for vandalism now, otherwise I'd habe quickly edited that to say "if you for one second think this news is reliable, nor subject to change or false speculation, you're a flipping idiot"

Wikipedia is best used for information that comes out after an official word or from reliable sources that have a track record.

Their switching to HD DVD and Blue Ray. I doubt TMNT will still be release so slowly after that. They need to kick it up honestly...this is just to slow.

Science - yes. History - not always. Sometimes the articles are strongly biased, despite their "Neutral Point of View" policy.

By their I mean media in general. Like the VHS tape DVD will phase out eventually. The thing with DVD though is a DVD lasts forever. As long as you take good care of it.

We might be forced to buy Blue ray and HD disk players one day but I really honestly don't see it becoming standard. Like Laser Disk. Laser Disk was better then VHS it was just advertised poorly and VHS won. Thus disk tech was put off a few years.

MP3 has been around for years now and have they stopped making CDs? No. Do you see cars with MP3 players instead of CD players? No. It's just not happening. CD is the best we're going to get. And yes it's nice to have HD but DVD is still standard. And I honestly don't ever see it going away. Not atleast until HD TVs are standard. Another thing I never see happening.
