Fourth Nick TMNT DVD coming in March 2014

The next "volume" will be out on March 18th of next year.

http://www.amazon.com/Teenage-Mutant...=Ninja+Turtles

Yet still nothing official about a Blu-ray set for season 1.

I'm sure the blu-ray sets will come eventually, even if it isn't until a few years. The episodes are already in HD on itunes after all.

Damn, Nick, can't you just release SEASONS? It's annoying keeping up with individual releases.

Well, at least we know when it's going to be released. I'll definitely get it though.

HA HA! I knew it would be called Mutation Situation! Though MARCH 2014? C'mon! I'm guessing it will only even go through Target: April O Neil or Slash and Destroy.
Who hopes it will have a bio? Maybe April, or Kraang.

I'm guessing it will feature the episodes up to Slash and Destroy, but they may surprise us on that one.

Come to think of it, that's a legitimate question.

I'm not buying any of these releases until there's a full season Blu-Ray. I don't know what Nick's waiting for, but they're not making as much money off this as they could be.

Im looking forward to this...march is a legit date if you count in that the season is a little behind in schedule compared to last season...but we may be in luck, perhaps they keep doing the half a season set like ultimate showdown.

And Amazon too. I have all of Season One and what they've shown on Season Two. I'd love to put what I bought onto disk, so I can keep them and free up any memory space on my computer.

They probably just want us to make the sales of the volumes successful to justify doing that.

The individual releases don't really bother me that much...In fact I've been buying them for my son and he watches them constantly. If he messes one of them up it'll be cheap to replace. When/if they release a Blu-ray set I'll be getting that for me.

It just sucks that there's no way to buy them in HD outside of services like iTunes. I can't put a download on my living room shelf and display it obnoxiously.

You guys have to realize, these individual releases are cheap because these are what kids will see in the store and beg their parents to buy them. These aren't meant to be collector DVDs. These are for little kids.

I'm sure we'll get blu-ray sets eventually, we just have to be patient.

This will have 6 episodes.
Then a second, third and fourth release with 6 each.
It's old school marketing.
Release the season on DVD AND bluray a week after the finale to that season.

I'm already looking to buy Dracula and Sleepy Hollow on blu a week or so after the finales air.
Releasing in segments might be working for this show though. I don't know how well S1 sold , but I can see no reason not to do bluray. It's the latest standard.

To be honest, I would not be surprised at all if there was never a Blu-ray 'Season' release, let alone a 'Season 1, Season 2', etc. release.

It's like when people, for years and years when New Line had the live action films, were saying "c'mon New Line Cinema, you're releasing special edition DVD's of Blade Trinity and Dark City, but not a special edition for a film that made you over $130 million?' aka the first Ninja Turtles flick.

Or the 2003 show...when they Finally got around to making actual season sets (of Season 1 part 1, season 1 part 2, and so on), and we all know what happened with that.

Or even the rocky road that the original turtle show had with the DVD market (missing episodes, wondering when the next one was coming out, a Season 3 set released years and years after originally putting them out in mediocre 'single-dvd' releases.)

My point is, don't be surprised if you find yourself going 'it's common sense, why don't you do it?' and then they don't do it. Like someone said, they'll want to milk it for as long as possible.

What the eff. I'm not buying this junk.
Of course I say that now, but 10 years down the road when this is the only thing that's available, I'll search high and low to own them all like I just finished doing with the 2k3 show.

Maybe when the series finishes, Nick could have a big box set?

I think you hit the nail on the head. I'd prefer blu ray, but I've purchased the DVDs so I can watch them at will in case that's all we get.

On an unrelated note, you have an awesome user name and avatar. Could only be better if John Rambo was rocking his red headband to match Raph.
