I just found out about this earlier. I have to go with the side that says I am not liking this idea very much. I am all for getting extra stuff with my DVDs but now we have a staggered Season 7 release and I just don't really get the point in the long run.
I personally like the idea of the box set like they did with season 1. Heck I bought it and I still have my little mini figs on the DVD rack. They should do 4 discs and package it with the figs This would be a really great opportunity to throw in missing Eppys and give us the European vacation episodes. That will have to be my possible bright side. |

Well that sucks, I counted up the eps on the box and it comes out to 27 episodes, which is what Season 7 + European vacation is.
However this means Planet of the Turtleoids and Once upon a Time Machine are skipped AGAIN! I can't believe this garbage! I don't give a damn about some 20 year old's TMNT collection (no offense to the people here who got filmed...haha), where are the two missing episodes? What the hell is wrong with Lionsgate? Even after all this damn time, NOBODY can get Lionsgate to get the skipped eps on the DVD? This is the biggest load of crap I've ever seen. Go and enjoy your "20 year olds who own TMNT toys" special features at the expense of the two missing episodes. How about someone try to convince Lionsgate about the missing eps instead of giggling with a pair of nunchucks in front of a camera? ****ing horrible. Its absolutely pathetic and a disgrace to see this keep happening with every release. The fact that Red Sky is next means we'll probably never get the skipped eps now. Great show, people, let's have Lionsgate screw us over for the millionth time. ****ing retarded. |

The representative came in and said basically, "we don't know where they go." Which I have to say, I can't see why they can't just add them as bonus episodes. Even, at least, put Once Upon a Time Machine on the first disk, evening out the 7 episodes on every other disk.
Or even putting them as bonus episodes so people will actually buy season 10, since they have a third of it on the first disk.

It sucks that the missing episodes aren't present, especially considering how awesome "Planet of the Turtleoids" is and the fact that yet another one of its follow-up episodes is in Season Seven. Groundchuck and Dirtbag's appearences are going to seem kind of random. And lastly, I'm slowly warming up to the split release. No, it's not ideal. No, the figures don't grab me. But even if the price tag does total between $40 and $50, that's not unreasonable compared to what most televsion season sets cost. |

Speak for yourself...
I'm just glad they put the old show out. Lionsgate is missing a whopping 2 episodes, but give us the European episodes, which I've never seen, and I'm supposed to feel cheated? Nah... First off, let me tell you how I feel cheated. I buy Ducktales volumes 1,2 and 3. Where's number 4? They can't give us the last 25 episodes, so basically I got an unfinished series, whos last release was summer of 2007? I buy Darkwing Duck volumes 1,2. Where's 3? We can't get the last 27 episodes? So again, Disney sticks it right where it counts to those who thought they'd get a finished series of their favorite shows. I buy Inspector Gadget on DVD. I get 25 episodes out of what 60 plus? They have no future releases planned, so another of my favorite cartoons goes unfinished. I buy C.O.P.S. on DVD. I get 20 plus episodes (can't remember,) and they cancel any future release. Same goes for any other show. I know of many on DVD that never even got to season 2, but here is Lionsgate, on season 7. Just 3 seasons away from a full series, and should people not care about red sky, then they can say they got the best seasons. So I am thankful for this. Heck even 4Kids can't commit to release dates for season 3 and on for the current show. We know next to nothing about the current TMNT because of so much secrecy that is uneeded. I would be very thankful to Lionsgate, and if it means sacrificing my favorite episode (Planet of the Turtleoids,) then so be it. Most people who devote themselves to certain shows either - 1. Don't have them on DVD at all. 2. Don't have a chance to finish their favorite show on DVD. I can live without 2 episodes, out of 193, as long as they finish, and only skip 1-2 episodes. If Lionshate sees this, thank you, don't think everyone speaks for each other here.

Thank god I still have the official vhs of those missing eps. Stupid Liongates, nobody cares that you don't know where they go. If you don't know where they go here's an interesting idea for you. MAKE THEM A STUPID SPECIAL FEATURE! Call them bonus episodes or something, nobody cares how they're put in as long as we get them.

So if you ask me, we actually got it pretty sweet. All we're gonna miss is 3 episodes, considering they'd keep the DVD's going. Disney effed royally up with fans on every single release... not even bothering to put up bonus features....

Good to know they're at least all coming out on the same day. You know, I wouldn't be at all surprised if the perpetually-skipped eps wind up as purchase incentives for Season 10 or a best-of compilation.

I'd much rather have the missing episodes than fan interviews. Like somebody else said, I hope they at the very least put the missing episodes on Season 10's release since we already have some of those episodes anyways.

I really really really don't want to buy this season, due to the blatant "eff you" they're giving us fans... but I'm a slave
I guess I'll buy them all, see if I can some how fit all four discs into the Season 7 Part 1 box so this season dosen't totally rape my shelf space. FU*K! |

well didn't the person making the Special Features say the Lionsgate knows now about the missing episodes and that they were only skipped because of online guides?
In fact the biggest mistake is from online guides that the episodes are skipped...as long as we get them I'll be happy.l |

I think it's kind of cool that the European episodes and the Season 7 episodes are seperate (European vol 1 and 2, s7 vol 3 and 4). That way, the European eps can go right between season 3 and 4. The season 7 eps in two volumes isn't so bad, I guess.

In as much as TV Shows On DVD didn't say that Lionsgate told them this, it's possibly just inferred from e-tailers like Amazon.

I've been told they get news from industry insiders. LionsGate ignores EVERYONE's request for news, even them

MSRP is $14.95, so you guys were right on the price pretty much. it'll be around $40 for all of them. |
