It'd be nice if they did that but I bet they won't. Paramount knows that some Trek fans will 'have' to buy it because they won't be able to live without the bonus disc. That way they get to bleed those fans dry by making them spend hundreds of dollars (again). |

All to True.Star Trek as a franchise does what's best for It not the fans.A fact They have proven time and time again.It's not really the bonus disc I care about,It's that awesome packaging. I have spent Years supporting Star Trek dvd releases just so some joe shmoe can get a deluxe box set and extra features, Not to mention spend a hell of alot less money than I did.I get pissed every time this shit happens because true fans get the shaft and people who don't care as much get Their asses kissed.I also love how every time They re-release the same stuff with new content They say Their doing it for the fans. Is that so...Well then how about a price tag between $100.00 to $150.00 Since We've all allready paid for this stuff. I mean if Their really doing it for the fans.I feel that price range is even to much to charge but it is realistic.

Re: star trek the next generation complete set coming
Yup, looks nice but the price is to high for me, and I have not even bought this series yet. (I guess I am joe shmoe  )
I have DS9 and Voy series, but am waiting for the right price for TNG.

Re: star trek the next generation complete set coming
I think the box looks cheap. That clear plastic cover looks like the type a toy would come in. The discs are in one of those book trays, and they are OK, but they dont have art of their own, so you have to have the cheap plastic "box" to keep it in. I only have through season 4, and i think i will just keep buying seasons 1 at a time when i can.

Re: star trek the next generation complete set coming
Not biting on this one. Box looks kinda cool and it would be nice to clear up some shelf space, but the discs I currently have are working for me. Give me a Blu-Ray release in a far smaller package and then I might consider it. But for no commentaries, no bloopers, no deleted scenes, no TRAILERS...forget it.

Re: star trek the next generation complete set coming
Priced beyond comprehension. Paramount is completely out of touch.
But beyond that... the green color is terrible. I guess whoever designed it looked at the last film artwork (Star Trek Nemesis), noticed the use of green, and thought that was the color that was associated with Star Trek. Not realizing that green is the color associated with the evil Romulan Empire; that's why Nemesis had the green art.
Bad price, bad color scheme, arguably a bad box design with those acrylic trays... Altogether a crappy set.
Price it at $100 to $200, and maybe I could overlook all the mistakes. Except the green - that's un-overlookable.

Re: star trek the next generation complete set coming
DVDActive posted better versions of the photos that TVShowsOnDVD posted, and they pointed out that the discs have "Region 2" logos on them. Maybe this is not what the U.S. release will look like after all.

Yeah, Are they posting the region 2 price? That's My Beef with it.I can get the whole series of "MacGyver"and the telefilms in a deluxe dvd set for around $160.00.But, I can't get a deal like this with Star Trek even though it's made a lot more money as a franchise.Screw You Paramount! |
