RBA Italia will be releasing the complete G1 cartoon show on DVD. This release is significantly different from the Box sets that were reported earlier as this release is for the so called "edicolas" which are news-stands.
Each volume will come with a DVD containing 2 episodes and a booklet containing extended character profiles.
See the website for this collection by clicking here.

32 issues at 5 euros each will work out at 160 euros all in, it would be cheaper to by the box-set and then go about buying a selection of reference books.

Did you forget about Kid Rhino's G1 DVD releases? Season 1, Season 2 Part 1, Season 2 Part 2, Season 3 Part 1, and Season 3 Part 2 & Season 4.

Sure they aren't sold as a set, but they are still the official U.S. releases of G1. They may not be perfect, but it's to be expected that the newer releases of G1 in other countries would be better than those that were released at an earlier time.

Ugh. They reused Rhinos audio tracks with new poopy sound effects.
Prabably used same prints with thons of "new" bloopers aswell.

Buy boxsets instead. This is a waste of money.

In the States we'd all like to have an Ultimate Collection style boxset like we just got for Cybertron and Energon. Hope it's coming.

Me too!
But this will cost more then just €5 a issue, the €4.99 is just the launch price, they will be more expensive starting from #2.
