Ausie only?

Fine.

I'll buy the Chinese bootleg version.

That really is a nice set! Its a shame that there'll be no box sets or DVD releases around the time of the new movie coming out, here in the US. That's because of Rhino not having the license and Sony cutting the division that had them.

Damn that sucks. They get the cool stuff while we get the plain jane.

I like how the 'Yet To Be Classified' covers up Arcee's body. Almost makes me wonder what non-classified material it might be hiding... (thinks of 3rd Lilformers comic)

I wish I hadn't already bought Madman's individual sets only to see them put to shame by a later boxed set release. :roll:

I don't own any box sets to date, I might buy this!

Is that a Don F. cover for the movie? If so, that means it's a third TF movie image from him?

Too bad it is Region 4.

Oh, my Toshiba laptop is region free you say?

Nevermind.

FINALLY the release of the movie 20th anniv DVD is almost upon us fellas. REJOICE!
Though I already have all the G1 dvds from Madman, so I'll pass on the ultra box set.

Thats real hot, I like that much better than the silver sets I have.

by **Ultra Convoy** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 8:29 am

It cost about $124 US. So it is affordable.

Gotta have this. The collector's box, the Bundle of the Movie with all of the original cartoon episodes, It's a pretty sweet deal. Pricey, but worth it.

I still think the box for the Chinese version is better, the wooden box with the autobot symbol on the front, and it's cheaper too. It also comes with a figure, and I was lucky enough to get Starscream.

What masters are these? if they are better than the Rhino/Metro master's I'll get it, if not then no

by **decepticon_king** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 2:17 pm

Also will the sound be 5.1?

by **Flashback77** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 4:01 pm

OK someone tell me what I need to do to get my PS2 to play Region 4 DVDs!

Im with Burn, I went out and bought me the rest of the original Madman boxsets late last year (cant beat $20 a set!) because I thought that would be it.
DOnt get me wrong, I love my Madman sets, but the plain metallic colour boxes with a couple of ads (as well as a crapload of special features on set 6) still doesnt come close to how good this larger complete set is.
Hell you could put this boxset up on a shelf just for display.
