I just got mine today with a 2 for $35 deal with Saving Private Ryan.

Any news on when Season 2 will come out?

Krangfan · 01-07-2005, 09:39 PM

I FINALLY got my copy for 15 bucks at FYE a week or so ago. I really love the original Turtles show so this is great. The DVD is a little weak 'cause there aren't any bonus features, just bonus episodes. I am happy to have it though, 'cause I think that Ninja Turtles is a show to own for the show, not any DVD extras. I had never seen any Red Sky episodes before, so I was a little confused with some of the stuff going on. Oh, btw, Krang and Shredder own Dregg any day. That's the only thing I don't like about the Red Sky episodes, no Krang and Shredder. Oh, and not having Rob Paulsen as the voice of Raph wasn't very good either.

So overall I like the DVD, and I can't wait till season 2

Hmm, this may be a little late, but I wanted to just give my impressions on Season One. I got it at Best Buy last May for only $9.99.

Overall, the five main episodes were awesome. Quality of the DVD is very good, even on the HDTV. The sound is also very good. The bounus five episodes, well they weren't in the correct order. This bothered me. I think they should have just made it the last five episodes so we could have seen some Shredder instead of the stupid Dregg.

The packaging is definatley a 10/10. It come with a 3D slipcase. The artwork seems to be true to the TMNT, however, I expected a darker tone to be used, not such a happy tone. The first five episdoes were more true to the darker comics then the rest of the series. Other than that, it comes with a nice insert with episdoe numbering, and a disc with nice menus.

A great package to any fan of the TMNT.

Just picked it up last friday over at the local Best Buy. Man, how those episodes brought back memories, it had been so long since I saw them, I forgot just how good they were, I'm very impressed with the DVD, and am glad that they finally started putting the old toon on DVD. My favorite episode was and is still the first one, shredder is just so cool in that one, will be picking the second dvd up soon and can't wait.

Try checking Best Buy, that's where I got mine just 2 days ago.

Does anyone know how well the second season TMNT DVD sold, and if they're going to follow up with a third season release?

Zelda · 07-22-2005, 09:57 PM

Dunno, but I definitely got it! Ahhhh happy times. My friend didn't know even the first vol was out so she picked it up and we watched it, ordered pizza, and of COURSE we put cereal on top of it!! It was actually kinda good... weird, but good. We used apple jacks and corn flakes. The apple jakes were best!

*DrSpengler* · 12-04-2005, 07:32 PM

Don't see a thread mentioning it, but just as a reminder:

TMNT Season 3 volume 1 is street-dating THIS Tuesday (11/6/05).

We got them in at Suncoast and I was reading the description on the back (they make it sound like a video game).

Cover arts a little fugly (particularly Leo's head), but it's the first 12 episodes. Hoorah!

So i tried to watch my season 1 DVD yesterday and i got through the first four episodes with no problem. But while i was watching the fifth, and exactly at the spot where Splinter and Shredder begin to fight in the Technodrome the disc did something at the "commercial break" thing that follows and my disc wouldnt show anymore of the episode. It kicked me to the DVD players menu and when i tried to return to that episode it did the same thing to me, but at the spot where April and the news crew run off from the boss of the station. Then i couldnt watch any of the Bonus Episodes. What gives? Did i get a defective disc (this was my first time watching it) or does my brothers DVD player suck?

soccerstud652 · 06-08-2006, 11:28 AM

If it is a brand new disc, chances are it is the DVD player. Try cleaning the DVD player or another DVD player to make sure it is not the disc.
