I got VOL 3

I work at BestBUy and I was able to purchase the VOL 3 of the turtles yesterday before the release date. Don't tell anyone though. This time Lions Gate shows some features on up comming movies. A new inspecter gadget CGI that looks awsome. Anyway the main page on the DVD is awsome. It plays the TMNT song with the four turtles standing around a sewer cover. When you hit play or go to scene selection you here the turtles say Cowabunga. It was well done. The only thing is the box art and the turtles on the selection screne need to be the classic turtles and not the new ones.

Yeah I think you're right.

I would like it more if they release a box for every season with 3, 4 or 5 discs. I like what they did with the Simpsons. I like those boxes for every season. TMNT deserve the same treatment.

Well, I'll be picking this up tomorrow, first twelve episodes intact. And I hate how they use new toon poses and brown knee and arm bands, that's not OS Lions Gate, lets get with it here.

I dunno when I'll be gettin' this but it'll probably be before Christmas. I just hope if it gets reviewed on DVDuesday on Attack of the Show that Chris Gore'll at least give it a buy. If isn't reviewed, then I'll buy it anyways. I'll either buy this with my Christmas money or the money I have left over from a check I got in the mail.

it's only 10$ so not a whole lot,

the extras seem kind of lame but atleast we're making slow progress and the menus are a little bit more animated, hopefully we see a trend in improving, even if by little and by the time we get vol. 8 they'll be great ;D

I hit Best Buy, Circuit City, and Wal-mart....nothing! Of course, the Best Buy gal couldn't look up inventory on the computer worth a darn, so there are probably copies sitting in the stockroom somewhere...

Don't Best Buy always release stuff early? I got Shredder's Final Countdown a good two weeks before the release date.

You could try HMV. Since their site sells it, they may be able to order you a copy and you can just pick it up in-store when it arrives and they'll call you. You never know.

Wierd how we got Volume 1 and then 2 & 3 never came. Wonder why, unless stores just aren't ordering? I got mine off amazon.

Yeah, you really don't have to worry about anyone telling, you told on yourself. Your loss prevention can track that stuff. Especially if you used your discount. I know this because I work L.P.

As for Best Buy releasing things early... It depends on the distributer. Basically, if it's a big name movie, no, it won't be released early. Something like a single-disk TMNT DVD might get released early... But I don't know about Lions Gate Films. 4Kids obviously doesn't care, because they continue to do it.

I picked up my DVD last night at 3 am (I had to work 2nd shift today) from wal-mart. They had plenty, however, it took 3 stores for me to find what I wanted. All you have to do is search around. The DVD was 9.68 or something of that nature. I also picked up Batman Vol. 4, being as that I already have the first 3! (Lions Gate Films and Fred Wolf need to take the initiative and get the rest of these out in multiple disks.)

If not in multiple disc sets, then at least more volumes per year...

Got mine yesterday, but I've only watched a couple episodes so far.

Enter the Rat King was great. Liked the bit where the Rat King tapes a note to April's closet.
