Shout! Factory has now posted advanced orders for the massive Japanese Collection Box Set. This 13 DVD set includes the complete series of Headmasters, Super-God MasterForce and Victory! Each with their original Japanese audio tracks, English subtitles, and an art gallery.

Shout! Factory wrote:TRANSFORMERS: THE JAPANESE COLLECTION – Headmasters -- Optimus Prime lives again, the energy of the Matrix has been released and peace reigns on Cybertron . . . but all that is about to change with the startling arrival of the newest breed of TRANSFORMERS warriors.

TRANSFORMERS: THE JAPANESE COLLECTION – Super-God Masterforce -- Following their victory over the DESTRONS (a/k/a DECEPTICONS) at the end of Headmasters, the CYBERTRONS (AUTOBOTS) depart Earth, leaving behind only a small group to protect the planet from any future menace. But when the powerful DESTRONS return to an unsuspecting planet, the CYBERTRONS must come out of hiding to defend their human friends once again — only this time they’ll be unable to do it on their own!

TRANSFORMERS: THE JAPANESE COLLECTION – Victory -- Victory is the third and final installment of this Japanese trilogy— introduces four new factions to the TRANSFORMERS universe. Each group comes equipped with its own unique power and the ability to combine to form much larger, more powerful TRANSFORMERS, making each and every battle even more epic!


Ordering now will save you 10%

That's great, but when are Masterforce and Victory going to be available individually?

Finally!

Though it's a bittersweet feeling, I've been waiting for this for a while.

I kind of find it a bit hypocritical that they keep using "Cybertron" and "Destron" on the packaging when the subs use "Autobot" and "Decepticon".

I still wanna know the retail release date (not the online release date, which we know is 1/10/2012).
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

I was starting to think this got canceled. Not a big fan of having to read TV but I've always wanted to see how G1 played out in Japan.

I don't know man, since this set was announced, I have not heard anything about individual releases. I have a copy (DVD) of the Masterforce series with the UK english dub, and the new Headmasters box set. Victory is causing a problem for me too.

No kidding. Going by the price of Headmasters alone, you'd think it would be less expensive to get them individually rather than the whole set.

According to this, it was supposed to have been released this week, but unless the stores near me didn't stock it, it wasn't. It could have gotten held back when this did, but I never heard about it.

Shortly after that was posted, that statement was retracted (though this was mostly for the Complete Collection, but since there's been no such announcement for Masterforce I guess it's safe to assume the same for it).

Man, so many expensive things coming out this time of year. I really want this. Is it going to be exclusive to their store?
