Cool...I liked that series and the toy line a lot. I have to admit I'm a completist though...has ANYONE done Energon and RiD box sets? I'd like to get them and torture my wife with them...maybe. WHo knows? I got her hooked on DBZ..LOL

Energon: No, it was skipped for some reason. Likely because it was the worst series of all of them and had the worst ratings (I think). BUT it did have a few episodes on DVD. Some early episodes, and some from later in the series.

RiD: Yes, but not in the U.S. Uk companies have released boxed sets of the whole series, but they're not region-free. Yet fans have been able to modify their DVD players so they can be watched. Go here:

to find out how.

Also, the japanese-exclusive series Headmasters, Masterforce, and Victory have been released in the UK and Australia (Victory not yet, but will be). They can be bought individually, or together in one set (UK only). This UK set also includes the one-episode series Zone.

$60+, I may wait for auctions.

I want this cause you know it's Transformers and all, but I just got a 15disc GI Joe set for $50, so you know, 120 epissodes, 2 mini series and a movie for less than a 50 episode subpare series.

I'll wait and see...

I'm in a bind about this set. I just got my husband to start watching Galaxy Force with me on YouTube, but he'd rather watch Cybertron. That being said, it would be so convinient to have the DVD set.

So do we continue watching Galaxy Force online or stop, then pick up with Cybertron on DVD. I guess I'll have to talk it over with him.

I'm just happy I got him out of his G1-only box. He's even watching Animated with me now.

I've had the "unofficial" DVDs for years now. Nice to see the official version now come out, hopefully also maybe some DVD extras. Thanks for the post First Gen !!
