Finally an announcement for region 1, and it looks like it's the first half of season 4...

Yay, glad it's 12 rather than 6. Awesome cover art!

*Storm Eagle* · 03-07-2016, 02:43 PM

Hey, they're learning. I think.

Bonus points for having " Kicking Shell and Taking Names" as a special feature as well.

*Jephael* · 03-07-2016, 02:54 PM

Kinda funny how the release date suggests that we'll be getting episodes 9-12 before they actually premiere on television.

Episodes 9-12 are airing in March/April.

Oh sh*t, I am such a doofus. I misread "May" as "March". Pay no mind to the speed-reader here.

I used to buy these volume editions like clock work but they eventually take up a lot of shelf space . I wish nick would be a bit more consistent with their complete season DVD release . Also it amazes me that a company as huge as nick still won't release a blu ray set even as this series is almost 5 seasons deep smh

I shall wait for the blu-ray's. After the show ends they'll probably re-release the whole series on blu ray sets...and DVD again for that matter.

How would it be a "re-release" on Blu-Ray when it was never released on it to begin with?

And to make you see the painting on the wall, the Alvin cartoon will be getting it's 2nd Blu-Ray release within the next month, that's right, 2nd Blu-Ray release, and that show premiered 6 months ago. And you guys have waited 4 years to not even get a rumor of 1 release.

Further proving if they wanted to put on the show on Blu-Ray, they'd have done it from the start, and if they cared enough to do it, they damn sure would have done it by now. They haven't done it, because they either don't want to or don't care enough to do it.

Also find it funny that IGN, Yahoo, and every other news/entertainment site has promoted the TMNT crossover, yet Nick still hasn't done a thing involving it, and it's not like the show is only on their network after all...

I said this before, I fear a Blu-Ray version would be identical to the DVDs. So why even bother?

If you buy the region 2 sets for the first two seasons, the discs are literally just repackaged from the piece meal DVD, they didn't even bother slapping numbers on the discs. A Blu-Ray edition would most likely be the same, straight up copies with no improvements at all.

Well, granted they would be better and an improvement by default quality wise.

In North American, it's not legal for a studio to throw a DVD mastered set onto a Blu-Ray disc. Now countries like Germany are able to do it which is why they've put the entire original TMNT cartoon on Blu-Ray, because they can put Standard Def masters onto Blu-Ray discs, it's legal to do over there, but in North American it's been outlawed to do that.

Oh, well that might explain it.

i see the pre-order available now on amazon

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...ilpage_o01_s00

once again amazon pre-order info is mislabeled.
amazon has it listed as '1 disc' when the box art shows '2 disc'

There are also two different listings for this title. The one you gave is apparently for the version with the Michelangelo zipper pull and includes movie cash to see the upcoming TMNT movie. This listing is apparently for the regular version.

ah! thanks for the heads up!

*ToTheNines* · 03-15-2016, 01:47 PM

So listing with no picture equals extra goodies... copy that. Changing preorder now.

*CyberCubed* · 03-15-2016, 01:49 PM

Don't you guys realize these DVDs are a waste of money? You will just be selling them off or giving them away in a year or so.

Either buy digital or wait for blu-ray's. What's the point of buying these DVDs when you're going to sell them and not even get half the amount back you paid for?

I learned my lesson when I sold all my old DVDs.

If people don't buy them then a bluray release probably will never happen if there is no market for one. Also if people don't buy them only to later sell them dirt cheap you will be paying inflated prices when they disappear and you finally realize that a bluray release isn't going to happen.
