Metrodome was tricked into using the Rhino masters, thinking their own masters were the same (which they weren't as Rhino's masters came from Hasbro unfinished, and Metrodome's were from Sunbow/TV Loonland which were as they appeared on TV). Metrodome's titles overall has the same specials as the Rhino one, but also have several ones of their own.Dougtron wrote:I'd like to know which DVD sets are the best? I know the R1 G1 sets Rhino released used masters that contained a lot animation errors. How do the Metrodome releases compare to the Madman set? Also how are the Madman Beast Wars sets compared to the Rhino releases? It's probably been asked several times before so sorry if there's another topic already.
You might want to take a look at this thread. Look at the visuals...Metal wrote:Just wondering, why do people talk like the G1 Rhino dvd sets are crap? I've had the whole set since they came out and watch them over and over again and I've always thought that they looked great.
Yes I notice the animation errors too, but I'm sure they were there when the show aired. Other than that the picture quality is very good and they have multiple audio options to select from. I certainly watch the toon more than the extras.
The extras do wear thin quickly, that's the only point of contention that I would agree with really. I also don't like the long time from boot up to menu screen, but that's hardly worth complaining about and I really like the Rhino menus with the animated Soundwave and Rodimus Prime etc...
Oh no doubt that Rhino did a bang up job on the DVD production. They just didn't deliver on the actual material. Someone who litterly grew up on the series will no the differences at first glance.Metal wrote:Interesting, thanks for the link. I'll have to reconsider my stance on the set I guess, but until I actually have something better looking and better packaged in my possession I still will enjoy the Rhino sets regardless. That thread certainly won't keep me from watching them.

You misunderstand the frog. He's not saying that there are no errors in season 3. He saying there are no extra errors that don't belong on it. Nothing that is different from the way it was originally broadcast.Koloth wrote:You're out of your mind. Season 3 is the absolute worst when it comes to animation errors. A friend and I did nothing but sit around one afternoon and look for errors. I think we reached the pinacle when Soundwave's face broke off of his head.Jedi Kermit wrote:I would say that it was only the Season 1 boxset from Rhino that suffered the incomplete masters.

I believe that was an error that was in the broadcasting masters too... But other things like backgrounds that disappeared, Seekers in wrong colour schemes, or Skyfire coloured as skywarp, or Optimus throwing a boulder at Megatron who teleports out of the way but still stands when the rock hits... Stuff like that...Koloth wrote:Ah well ok then.
Frankly I just wish Sony or Paramount or whoever has the contract now would redo season 1. Most of it I can over look most of the time. But the scene on the ship during MTMTE where they repeat the pan across to Prime when Megs is yelling attack drives me nuts.
Last I heard, Disney still holds the rights to RiD (don't ask me how they got them) and don't have any plans to release them... Of course, you could buy the UK boxes, who released the whole series of RiD, including the banned episodes.Koloth wrote:Not to mention releasing boxsets of RiD thur Cybertron.

Yes, Disney bought the rights to several of their shows and Robots In Disguise was thrown in there to sweeten the deal so to speak...and now were stuck with Disney not doing anything with the rights to them...i_amtrunks wrote:Didnt Disney get it via Saban Media?Raymond T. wrote:Last I heard, Disney still holds the rights to RiD (don't ask me how they got them) and don't have any plans to release them...
