That looks awesome!

Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

I really like that Box Art.

Is this a re-mastered box-set with beter color animations and no more multiple starscreams.

I heard that someone bough the rights to Gerneration 1 sunbow or someone like that.

Also heard that they was suppose to clean it up like sony did the movie did they did an awesome job or remastering it.

It just sucks that they went out of business so I guess that means we wont be getting a remasters Generation 1 box-set here in the United States for a long time or never.

This sucks everyone gets good things excepts the united states but at least we finally get Energon on box-set and we will get to see revenge of the fallen before other countries also.

is this or will this be in the states?

Best box art ever for a G1 ep release. Hands down winner over what the rest of the world got.

Nope, it's said on the first post: this is only the Italian version.
I would love to do the US version, but if Hasbro release the DVD again, they will do them in-house or license them to Paramount and I dont' see paramount hiring me for the packaging

BTW, the masters used are the Rhino ones, so there are the same mistakes.

That new box art is TITS!!! Kinda reminds me of the sweet 'He-Man and the Masters of the Universe' boxsets put out by Entertainment Rights.

Cool stuff. Damn those lucky Italians!

I think it looks amazing. Very good job to the both of you.

Who are the 12 Character Profiles?

man, i hope they never remove all the mistakes...thats part of the show's charm. even back when i was a kid i loved noticing all those animation mistakes like wrong colors, wrong symbol or as someone else mentioned, multiple starcreams.

they should never ever ever ever try and fix those, fix the color and picture quality sure but leave the mistakes intact.

i know im most hated person on this site because of my strong outspoken answers sometimes.

but think of it this way i forgot what sereis that was that came out i think in the uk first & we thought we would never see that box set hit us states or countries but it did so this dvd set might hit the us this year or next year also seen the english option audio on the back of the box.

I don't know if you are the most hated person on the board, but I think you should believe the words from the horse mouth
This set won't be realised in US. I've created it for a small Italian company who licensed the series from TVLoonland.
The English lnaguage option is totally common here in Italy, it isn't any indication.

The only chance to see something remotely like that in US is that Hasbro (or the series licensee in US) hires me for the domestic release, but I think chances are very very small).

So you consider having to import toys from the US that are domestic releases in the US but don't make it to the rest of the world to be a good thing?
But oh well 90% of your posts don't make any sense at all, so why am I actually reading them. I'll just use the ignore option of my profile.
