"ONCE UPON A TIME MACHINE" & "PLANET OF THE TURTLEOIDS" coming to DVD!!

*gobo* · 10-18-2011, 11:59 AM

In Germany...

According to fellow 'Dromer, hudemx, Germany's next box-set of the 1987 cartoon will include these episodes, and will be released on December 5th.

The box will include all episodes in their uncut, English audio glory with an option to watch the UK-based edit with German dialogue. So, for fans importing the set, all you need to worry about is getting around the Region coding... and maybe the PAL video format might be an issue as well.

Once again, the TMNT get the shaft in their home country! Why was Lionsgate Germany smart enough to include them but Lionsgate US oblivious?

Maybe because there is no Lionsgate Germany only KSM

At the very least, people can rip the two episodes off the DVD and upload them to the Internet so everyone who doesn't import can have nice clean copies.

XD you guys doing this on purpose? I read OMW's typo.

We do not encourage piracy here, CyberCubed. Please refrain from any discussion of that sort of activity.

So how do we in the states get our hands on a copy?

I'm pretty sure gobo will import some copys to the States like he did with the "Special Edition" of the original Movie, but I'm not sure especially since the Boxsets for the TV Show are a "bit" more expensive...

Best you ask him

Good question. It will be available at Amazon.DE eventually. Accounts for any country's Amazon affiliate are valid there. However, there's a little issue with their international shipping charges. Last time I checked, it was 14 Euros for any quantity of copies to America. So, I'll likely be running the same program I did for the movie w/ commentary that was also a Germany-exclusive. I'll take orders from interested fans to cut down on shipping, then redistribute to wherever as cheap as I can afford to make it. I only insist on breaking even though.

hey, great to hear that ksm is back on releasing the seasons dvds!!!I didn't even know about vol 4...this is really a great time to be a turtles fan...

*Deathknight* · 10-19-2011, 09:30 PM

Really wish we'd get this in the states. Not really worth it to me to import it for just those 2 episodes. I'll just have to hang onto my vhs I suppose. However, it was brought to my attention that Mikey makes some remark about Herman the Horrible that was cut out of the VHS release. That I definitely want to hear.

I'd never thought i'd see a release like this and have not ever participated in such an exchange !!

Really really COOL !! !! !!

This is great news, thanks hudemx!

*gobo* · 10-24-2011, 01:25 PM

Looks like it'll probably be $40-45/set. Bit more expensive than I was hoping...

So, unless I get a lot of interest, I doubt I can afford to do this.

Price will drop until the releasedate - amazon germany usually drops the price a few days before the official Release by apx 5 - 10 Euros

Is $45 even worth it for two episodes? I think I'll stick with my VHS conversions.
