For new fans who haven't seen them, these ARE sometimes tough to get through. Very Japanese in style.

They have. They've tried to get Scramble City for the Matrix DVD set, but were denied it by Toei.gothsaurus wrote:The REAL missing elements I see here are the one-offs like Scramble City and Zone. Are we never going to see those stateside?
SHOUT, please consider a DVD of these episodes.
No way would we get Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo so soon. Beast Wars II just came out on DVD in Japan for the first time since its original broadcast 13 years ago. BWNeo still isn't out on DVD yet. So, if we are to ever get them stateside, it'll be a while before such happens.LOST Cybertronian wrote:gothsaurus wrote:The REAL missing elements I see here are the one-offs like Scramble City and Zone.

Not a whole lot of material in those two. Perhaps if the first one does well in sales, we might see a Japanese Collection II with Zone, Scramble City, Beast Wars II and Neo.
Yeah, with no audio! We need sound! The UK Ultimate Edition of the G1 movie included it subbed and with sound, but it was a bootleg version.G1 Legacy wrote:The Scramble City "one shot" was included in the bonus features of the Transformers: The Movie 20th Anniversary DVD 5 years ago (which should still be readily available).
Not when there's little-to-no talking during the action parts.G1 Legacy wrote:As a completist yes I would be intersted to have them all, but its hard for me to watch them sometimes because if you wanna keep up with the story you gotta sit there and read the sometimes poorly translated subtext while at the same time trying to enjoy the 80's style animation as well...it can get taxing during action sequences LOL.

All I'm going to say to that is:
Danna nah nah nuh' HEADS ON!
Danna nah nah nuh' HEADS ON!
Danna nah nah nuh' HEADS ON!
Both characters were changed for this show. Daniel was reduced to acting about half his own age, and Wheelie was changed from a cheery rhymer to a punk tough guy.G1 Legacy wrote:*And speaking of Bieber fever, could they have portrayed Daniel Witwicky any gayer in this series...I mean hanging out with Wheelie? Seriously? And I thought Chip was bad.
Dude, I have that, and every single Japanese TF song, on my phone.gothsaurus wrote:Now I have the end theme for Victory stuck in my head... with the little prancing dinosaurs in a conga line. And the lyrics asking those ever pressing questions like "Did Victory Saber wet the bed????" Gads, that's priceless stuff.
Chinchinchin Chichinpui!!!
Papapa payapapa!!!
Now you have it stuck in your head, too.
They got "The Rebirth" too. Much later on Laserdisc. So, they got both versions of the story, but one just holds the higher regard than the other.G1 Legacy wrote:I wonder if the Japanese Transfans have had the same kind of trouble over the years watching our original G1 stuff? (Probobly not, most of those super geniuses know English as a second lanuage just as well as or better than we do) LOL
"Ahhhh, silly Americans think Headmasters come from Nebulous, hahahahahaha SO STUPID!"

It's probably this bootleg (or one like it) that has circulated the fandom over the years.drunyon73 wrote:I have Scramble City and Zone on a Japanese release dvd that is region free NTSC with original japanese audio and english subtitles.

As far as I can tell, all of the subtitled versions of Scramble City and Zone that are on YouTube seem to come from this bootleg. So, I'd estimate they're more or less the same.gothsaurus wrote:How is this bootleg, by the way? Better than youtube?
