You had yours last November with Sony BMG's 20th Anniversary DVD.

whens the UK release!?!?!?!

This is the UK release, coming out 4th June.

ill have to read more about the extras i do see some new extra stuff compared the orginal version and the screen shots and colors are differnt and brighter but they should have done that with the first version not this version here making colors and the film brighter compared to the 20th edition if the extras are good and differnt from the version i have now ill buy it other wise im not going to buy it just for a couple new extra stuff added to this version here and brighter and better sound.

After "Transformers: Movie" Restoration or whatever Metrodome's attempt was in 2005, I'll believe the video quality is better after I see this. Man, I'm going to own 10 copies of this movie in the very near future. Sony's is by far the best of everything that I own so far.

This review of the extras on the Metrodome version sounds like the same stuff we got here in Australia on our “normal” release of the movie. We got the Character profiles, the extended Japanese trailer (with “deleted scenes”), the “Opening Voice over” & Spike’s expletive. But we also got EXTRA stuff too!

Does anyone know what Madman's AUSTRALIAN Special Edition (in June) will be like? Apparently it's a 2 disc set with remastered theatrical widescreen and full-screen editions. It also has 80s TVCs, TV spots, cast & crew commentaries, 'The Touch' film clip (AGAIN!!??), plus 2 bonus episodes ("Scramble City" and "Beast Wars").

It sounds like a good set. Anyone know?

So Clean and Sharp! Thanks for the review man

I am led to believe that it is somewhat akin to the US Sony release. Being a Madman release is great, as Madman have had the best extra's of any Transformers releases anywhere in the world.

Well, the Beast Wars DVD extras were brillant but the G1 discs were generally lacking compared to Metrodome and Rhino.

Is this the same version of the movie that is included in the BIG G1 set Madman is putting out?
