New artwork revealed for upcoming Transformers The Movie 30th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray and DVD

Too bad they couldn't get it out on August 2nd or 9th (the closest dates to the TRUE 30th anniversary on August 8th), but no sense in splitting hairs. Well done SF! Sony may have just had a 10 year hold or something, but still this is nice. I have the original Rhino DVD from 2000, and the Sony released 2 disc set from 2006.

If I had any say in the extras (which I don't obviously) it would be...

1. Can we please just get an unaltered Scramble City, without the garbage fan commentary for audio?
2. If there is going to be any commentary at all, let it be from individuals that worked on the film, fan commentaries are the worst, no matter how "well researched" they may think they are, it was still riddled with mistakes and assumptions. One of the reasons why I would never do a commentary even if asked to.

Of course however...I'll be getting the Blu-Ray

Hopefully S!F will someday get BWII & Neo. The fan subs are really good, but I'd like to have something official and tangible.

Wasn't the 30th anniversary of the release a few days ago? Either way I'm happy about this, wonder if they'll re-release GI Joe the movie

The Movie came out in August 1986.

August 8th to be exact (at least in the US), trust me...my 10 year old self will never forget that experience.

Nice! I can finally replace my VHS copy, and retire my VCR!
Seriously, the only reason I still have a VCR was to watch this and the two seasons of Yo Gabba Gabba I had to bootleg for my girls because cable is for dinosaurs. (said the guy with a VCR. )

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuunk yeah!!!!!

3rd disc based copy of the movie coming my way! Wooooooo!!!

I made that comment to a friend of mine. It's a lot cleaner than his art usually is. I really like the cover.

God bless my Grandfather for taking me, poor guy didn't know what he was getting into.

Glad to hear you've been enjoying BWII

Yes. Very much. Just to give you a little background...I've had the series in straight Japanese on VHS since 1999, and BW Neo shortly after that. I've seen them both several times, but seeing it for the first time with subs is very much appreciated .

Thanks!

Right now the Australian Blu-Ray release is selling for $17.99 on eBay, region free. The description shows that there're extras on the disc. I don't know if it'll be worth waiting for the U.S. release and I'm sure it'll be for more than the one on eBay.

His linework is usually very clean, but it's ill-served by the muddy coloring he usually does. Some of his more recent work has been much brighter, which looks quite a bit better.

I wish someone else would color for him.

yeah but what's the shipping cost?

It's prime shipping, but it's actually $36.81 on Amazon.com.

This is long, long, LONG overdue. I am very excited to finally get the last piece of the U.S. G1 cartoon!
