TMNT DVD releases

TMNT4kids · 03-12-2008, 10:05 AM

It has come to my attention that there is a concern about the 4Kids DVD releases so I thought I would post a response to some of the questions I've received. Do keep in mind that things do change, but this is the most up-to-date info as of today:

The current plan is to re-release all the episodes for each season
in order.

The last episode of Season 4, "The Ninja Tribunal" will be on the Ninja Tribunal/Lost Episodes DVD as well as the Season 4 DVD.

"Nightmares Recycled" will not be on "The Ninja Tribunal" DVD. (That does not mean it will never see the light of day however - but that's all I can say about that for now.)

Good to know, and also good to know studio execs (or whatever affiliation you have in tinsletown,) don't mind being among the people. In this case fans.

I am almost in Hollywoods door myself, and once so, I will not be afraid to still be myself.

Good news however, about re-releasing ALL seasons (including a re-release of season 4,) I would love to see both season 4 releases with those spiffy new art covers.

One thing though - If you don't mind answering - will there be re-releases of the Fast Forward episode, broken down into 2 parts, with black side panel and trim at the bottom of the front cover, with the saying, "season 6?"

That would be sweet if so, as I love having my DVD collection in bookshelf fashion and would love to have my entire seasons of the 2k3 toon match, unlike the Lionsgate releases (which I still appreciate them releasing, but they could've stayed consistant with the packagin.)

That is amazing news!
Can you please, if you can, list the stores that will be selling the dvd sets?

Wait, the infamous episode 110 may yet exist? That's quite exciting.

And I'm already excited about completing my DVD collection for this show. Though I need money before I can go out and get Season Two Part 1 and Season Six Part 2.

Also, I take it that the second have of Season Four (previously released incorrectly labeled simply as "Season 4") will be rereleased in a similar format to the current releases. That's cool.

Never see the light of day? Does that mean it's finished and unreleased or unfinished and we may just get to see storyboards and what not.

I guess they could always complete production on "Nightmares Recycled" and make it another "DVD only" episode.. if Season 5 is re-released after Seasons 1-4. A Lost Lost Episode. :p

Thanks for clearing that up, I've been kinda worried. But, I would like to ask, is there any chance that the time it takes for these releases to come out will hurry up?

Yeah, I wouldn't mind them coming out a bit quicker so I can get them all already.

Well, I just hope they all make it out by the time Season Seven finishes so we can get the seasons out as they come after that.

I barely ever find any of the new toon series seasons DVDs. Can someone please tell me how many of them have been released? I have Season 1 volume 1 &2, and Season 2 volume 1. What else is out there as for as the season collections go?

*sdp* · 03-12-2008, 04:54 PM

My take is Nightmares Recycled will be an episode on the new season.

Love the way the TMNT releases have been going on.

Aside from that, Season Six / Fast Forward is out in two volumes (Future Shellshock and Day of Awakening).

And the latter half of Season Four (minus the last episode, The Ninja Tribunal) is out in the form of a set somewhat incorrectly called "Season 4", though this will probably be rereleased later.

*gobo* · 03-12-2008, 06:56 PM

specifically features episodes 11 & 13-25 out of the 26 in its respective season. That totals 14 episodes. I come from a long line of nit-pickers...

X · 03-12-2008, 09:17 PM

I could see one of two things happening here...

1. Nightmares Recycled will be released on a set at sometime. It won't be airing on TV, so it really won't hurt Saturday morning watchers, if the material is indeed questionable.

2. I have also thought along with SDP, that maybe it will be a future episode, scaled down in tone to meet the needs for it to be aired, and it will somehow fit into the continuity of the current season.

In anycase, it would be excellent to see it finished. The subject matter is controversial, but one I believe could make for a great episode.

Oh one more thing. TMNT4Kids, could you answer this question?

"Why did they do away with the styalized scenes, where there were multiple windows and scenes playing at the same time?" Namely a 24 effect, that I noticed a lot in older seasons but died down, or out in later seasons?

I would love to see those again.

*sdp* · 03-12-2008, 11:31 PM

TMNT4Kids, could the flash animated short clips be added as extras in some of the releases? I don't think there is that many of them and they aren't long and they include all the voice actors in some unique situations.

*Buslady* · 03-13-2008, 08:17 AM

Refresh me memory, Nightmares is that freaky one about Hun and the Garbageman's icky..."connection" ?

Indeed it is. The episode was shelved before it was really made since it wouldn't air anyway.

But the numbering includes it, so right now episodes 109 and 111 are part of Season Five, but episode 110 doesn't really exist.

There were 20 1-minute skits from Peach Nova Productions (The Incredible Crash Dummies), and they all related to season 4. I thought they were great! ^_^

veemonjosh · 03-17-2008, 08:40 PM

My theory is...

We might get a completed Nightmares Recycled in time for season 5's rerelease.

I doubt there will be a rerelease of season 5. And if there is one it would be years away considering the first release isnt even out yet.

*Revan* · 03-17-2008, 09:21 PM

Since nightmare's recycled wasn't completed, could they animate it in the new season style and air it during season 8? That could work
