What kind of player do you have?

It works well, you guys save a bunch on purchasing, and shipping costs arent anywhere near as bad for dvd's.but i couldn't find them I'm thinking about buying them and trying your trick.

It is the Chinese distribution but I have watched every episode perfectly on my Wal-Mart $25 Magnavox DVD player.

I have been waiting to watch my Masterforce and Victory DVDs for two years now, but I can't locate a code for any of my DVD players. Headmasters was printed as region 0, but the other two series were region 2 so I haven't seen them.

Do you have a computer that can play DVDs? If yes, just watch them on that.

Getting TF DVDs to work is a nightmare... a mate made me (cough ahem) the TFA and GalaxyForce seasons on DVD which play fine in my PS3 and little DVD player, but theres loads they dont work in....
However i have Region 1 TF Energon DVDs that SHOULD play in my multyregion player and of course they dont lol

you can imagine Galvatron finally finds the "Golden Disk" from Beastwars and it wont play in any of his players lol :lol:

I've been enjoying DVDs from all over the world for the past 2 years. I own all of Metrodome's Headmaster, Masterforce, Victory and RiD sets, Metrodome's "Transformers Movie Reconstructed", as well as all of Madman's incredibly flawless Beast Wars sets, their very awesome G1 boxset and their version of the animated movie. For those of you who don't know, Metrodome is based out of the UK and Madman is based out of Australia.

I don't need to hack any DVD player to play other countries DVD regions.

There is a extremly cheap DVD Brand called "COBY" that plays all DVD regions world wide. the Coby DVD player I buy is extremly small & has a pop up cover to inset the DVD in to play. I usually pay under $20 bucks for it. Walmarts & kmarts sell the Coby DVD players.

I went to amazonUK.com a few years ago & bought the metrodome complete japanese G-1 series & UK Rid series for like 75% off. All these dvd's played in my Cheap portable 6 inch by 6 inch dvd player.

ALSO I noticed my e-machines computer from walmart DVD player has no problem playing all the international DVD's. without the need to hack the dvd player on my computer.

I usually buy those cheaply priced smaller $20 Dolby DVD players. these play all regions without the need to get hacked.

my Personal computer DVD player can play all regions of DVD.

I bought the UK Rid complete series & Complete japanese series from UK thru amazon.comuk. all these work & play on my dolby dvd player & computer dvd player.

BTW for those wondering I live in america.

I just got my Madman Headmaster DVDs and they play w/o a code in my Phillips DVP-3140. It also plays DivX which is very nice.
