Yeah...I'm not really going to buy these new dvds until they put at least 13 episode volumes on a single set. The 4Kids releases are becoming harder to find and more expensive.

Nickelodoen's Twitter page for DVD releases (@NickelodeonDVD / https://twitter.com/NickelodeonDVD) has been tweeting about these two dvd releases. I'm going to make sure to let them know that these stupid little volumes are not appreciated.

It's official. Viacom has completely flipped their sh*t. I mean, if they seriously think this is going to make them MONEY? For all the kids (or parents of the kids) know, it's just a cheap knockoff of the TMNT they know. For the audience I assume Viacom is trying to appeal to, the original fans of the 2003 show, we don't care. We've had enough of this "three episodes a disc" bullsh*t that has just made trying to collect the show we love on DVD a complete PAIN.

I think we just need to say this nice and slowly. Make season sets of the 2003 TMNT show and there will be a lot of people who will buy them. My god.

WTFreakinF???

MORE 3-4 episode discs in 2015???

AND they're even redoing them 'exactly' as the original 3-4 disc were... well the titles anyway seemingly....talk about LAZY. But somehow I have the feeling this will not be in sequence order like the originals SAVE Seasons 3 & 4 (US versions) it will be more of a 'greatest hits' thing.

How many of 'these' do you need to TEST the market, it's the BEST animated series of TMNT hands down, it will sell like Hotcakes in complete series versions, there is a huge huge huge demand for them, what's so hard to understand about that???

Sigh...It's very hard to be positive about this when it feels like a constant slap in the face.

What I wouldn't give for some decent season or half-season sets of this show. I mean, I'm glad Nick has remembered it exists... But considering it's the "retro" TMNT series they own outright, I'd hope they'd put a little more effort into engaging and building on its audience.

Ah well. The most I can hope for is eventually getting to complete my spotty season 3 and 4 collections. Though I doubt these releases will ever get that far.

Sure is GREAT how Laird sold the whole f*cking shebang to Nick/Viacom, AIN'T IT?! We sure are LUCKY to have all this CRAP to sift through, AREN'T WE?!

Boy, do I wish someone else had paid Laird off instead. DC/WB, preferably. But anyone. Disney/Marvel. Cartoon Network. The goddamn Discovery Channel. Chef Boyardee. Keebler, possibly, or even Sunshine f*cking Biscuits.

Anyone else would be doing a better job with this franchise than Nick has/is. Literally Any Other Company.

Spectacular, Nick. Just spectacular.

I shall continue not purchasing these so-called excuses of 2k3-fanservice and shall continue waiting for you to put some more effort into further attempts in putting 2k3 on home-release.

Nick's people responsible for the TMNT IP are just a bunch of trolling a-holes.

Almost makes you wish the IP hadn't been sold... but as long as we have IDW's TMNT comics, I'm content. And the 4Kids cartoons on YouTube.

This. Is. Stupid. Why buy the franchise when you won't treat it well? TMNT would be sooo much better in Cartoon network's hands. Or yeah, if it was never sold. Just sayin'. I mean, I'm not ungrateful that they're even acknowledging the fact that this series exists, but come on! Why...ugh...

Ironic considering there was a time where I swear I saw 2k3 air on CN during a time when it was still on 4Kids.

It's so bizarre, considering how little it costs to print DVDs.

Seems like a lot of parents would snatch up a full season set or half-season set for the same price as, say the 6 or so episodes per disc the current Nick show does for its own releases.

There's $$$ there for their taking. Not a windfall, but easy $$$ nonetheless. And yet Nick sits on their asses and drools on itself instead.

There definitely was. In fact there's an episode that aired on CN before it aired on The Fox Box (or whatever they were calling themselves at the time).

Which is really weird because these stupid little volumes seem like they're meant for little kids. Kids today already have a TMNT cartoon that they can buy volumes of on dvd. The kids who watched the 4Kids series are all teenagers now.

And the teenagers who watched the 4Kids series are all adults. With money. And in a culture that no longer makes fun of adults who like cartoons, anime, and comics.

WTF, Nick... WTF.

Where is CyberCubed?!?! I suspect that on his tombstone eulogy, it will simply say "I Still Believe."

Well, I was willing to give Nick a pass on the first 2 releases as I figured it was just them testing the market first, but obviously now that is not the case. It is undeniable that they have been diagnosed with a lethal case of "Cluelessacitis". I'll take the other 2 dvds I bought in good faith back to the store and get my money back. Nick can kiss my @$$.

We will get a full series set eventually, these releases are aimed at parents to buy for their kids to make a quick buck.
