I don't speak for myself, but I'm sure the fandom as a whole would say:

"Whoever has them... can keep 'em!"

Personally, I'd buy the DIC series, and Extreme... I was a fan of both, grew up with both, and never got to see the second half of the latter series.

I expect few people (except a few fanatics) would agree with me.

DiC! I was only thinking about Sunbow when I made my earlier comment. I grew up in the 90s...and I loved the DiC series. The theme song was awesome to me, and the vehicles dropping in by parachute made me think that they actually made those parachutes and sold them seperately and I just couldn't find them when I was little. The prospect of getting THOSE on DVD is even more exciting.

as long as they finally release the 2nd half of season 2 which had some of the best of Sunbow's run, I'll be happy.

even as a 'complete second season' set this go around I'll happily buy it!

I could definitely see a renewed emphasis on the DVDs as we get closer to the movie's release. I think the success of 'Transformers' has emboldened Hasbro. I wouldn't be surprised if we got new Transformers dvds around the time of the release of Transformers 2. Hopefully without all the KidRhino errors :roll:

I just wrote an article about Magno Sound & Video, the post-production studio Rhino hired to 'remaster' the soundtracks of both Transformers and GI Joe.

Mostly they ended up adding lots of stupid sound effects that often overwealm the original sound effects. CHOW! SIZZLE! ZAP! SIZZLE!

Anyone remember how good the Sunbow cartoons were? Yeah, those were awesome!

Erm, I fixed your post for you. ;-)

I'm looking forward to getting these on DVD(some episodes, again). There's nothing like seeing people parachute harmlessly away from an explosion in HD!
