I have episodes 1-thru 21 from the canadian company Atlantis Alliance, 7 episodes per dvd. I hope they release one more so I wont have to buy this one for the remaining 5 episodes.

I've been hoping they'd release this for a while. I'm glad they're not waiting until they've released all of the original series before releasing this.

I have BW on CD, but the quality's slightly lacking.

That's great news. Beast Wars has to be among the top 10 kids shows of the 90's, and I'm not just saying that because I'm a Transformers fan. I'll definately try to get this set.

Ohh, that's awesome...if only it weren't so damned expensive. I mean, what's the deal with these box sets being so insanely expensive? It's not like they're filled to the brim with high-quality, desireable extras. I mean, the Friends seasons are selling for only $30, as is Futurama and South Park...

There many reasons

The Company- In the case of Transfromers is Rhino Entertaiment
a small company (in regards to companies like Paramount and Fox) with limited reasorces.

The Transfer and/or remastering- You have to remember that Transformers G1 and G.I. Joe are almost 20 years old the quailty
of the film is not often in the best condition

Licence-Trnasformers and Beast Wars TV shows are licenced from Hasbro/Takara/Claster and they got to get there cut of it too.

Also I would like to point out that shows like Star Trek: The Next Generation/Deep Space 9 and The X-Files boxed set seasons are going has high as $100.00 (USA) per set and they're from major companies!

I'm assuming that vol 2 will be seasons 2 and 3, and that if they do a BM set, it'll be the entire series.

The Sopranos DVD sets sells for that same price.

Yeah, but those are longer episodes, more expensive licenses, and higher production values.

I can see what you're saying about Rhino being a small company, but charging an arm and a leg for something that's really not worth the price isn't any way to expand. Honestly, I'd burn copies of the things if I had a DVD burner and not feel bad at all with what they're charging.

I got those too. Don't worry, they'll release vol. 4 soon enough. They do so once every 10-12 months or so.

Also one should remember that the price the listed is the
MANUFACTER SUGGESTED RETAIL PRICE

If you shop around you might find them cheaper I got Season 2 part 2 $50.00 at Best Buy and Ultimate Weapon said that he picked it up at Suncoast for $40.00 there are deals out there you just got to look for them.
