Anyone get this Transformers box set?

*Brodie* · 01-23-2009, 12:16 AM

I've been cruising Amazon for G1 Transformers box sets, and found this:
Set #1

I also saw this one:
Set #2

Has anyone gotten either of these? I'm trying to decide which to get, and can't quite make a choice yet. The reviews for the 15 disc set say the discs could come scratched, because of the flimsy cases, but I can't find much else on the second set.

Help?

Why the hell would you want to own it in the first place?

I'm guessing he likes the show. Just guessing, though.

The first one was a Chinese release which uses the same audio and video from the Kid Rhino releases. I've heard very good things about it and lots of fans have purchased them and been satisfied.

Of course, because they use the Kid Rhino audio and video, you'll have to deal with additional sound effects added by Rhino and "extra" animation errors since they used the production masters instead of the broadcast masters.

But its the best deal and the quality is on par with official releases.
