Star Trek: The Original Series Complete Blu-ray

Just found this on HMV

I'm guessing it is all the series in one box set!

chip75 · 12-07-2010, 10:16 PM

For 159.99 I'd expect the Shat himself to come into my living room and perform a rap version of Shakespear's Hamlet with Tribbles and then act out half a dozen TOS fanscripts... with voices... Wow Paramount where prices boldly go...

DaveSimonH · 12-07-2010, 10:51 PM

Its £150 at Amazon but £50 per series is too much, especially with cheaper packaging (I assume).

Someone recently bumped the season 1 thread about this complete set.

Pic of box at http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/1.../Product.html# I notice Amazon have increased the prices of the individual boxes to over £50 each but that does not make this set a bargain

I see this has a new date of May 2011.

Looks pretty amazing.

I don't consider myself a Star Trek fan (seen the original TV years ago) but the new film makes me want to go back to the original shows. I tried the Blu-ray movies but didn't like them. The old TV shows might be better.

Yeah, paramount series pricing... Remember how much the Star Trek DVDS were for so long? Ridiculous.

Natty · 11-27-2011, 07:32 PM

down to £89.97 at amazon

Mavrick · 11-27-2011, 07:37 PM

Really was hoping they had this in the Black Friday deal. It's a good price but still out of my price range for now. Hopefully I should have it in the new year

Just in time for TNG sampler

I was hoping the same. I tried to get DS9 but didn't make it. I was really hoping for a complete Stargate SG-1 set for about £50 I would have been thrilled to bits with that one (or Atlantis).

I read a lot of complaints about the packaging, on amazon site. I prefer the seperate releases, or the US box but i s also still too expensive.

Got the Scandinavian version, which should be exactly the same, for about £45. I really don't like the cardboard packaging.

NicWhit · 11-28-2011, 10:36 AM

How much do you think a complete set of TNG DVDs (region2) will be worth?
They're in the silver LCARS style boxes. Would like to sell them before the Blus are released but not sure if i'm better doing them in one lot or seperatly...

Does that store do UK shipping?

I ordered it from boostep.fi, but they also have a UK-shop. Price is higher though and postage seems a bit steep. Info on the page says it has only scandinavian subs, but the discs have UK/Germany/Australian-markings, they should have english subs.

Here's a nice little unboxing of the complete set.

I wan't to get the films too, but can't decide between the complete set or the 2 seperate box sets.

I do like the slim cases in the seperate sets, and they would sit on my shelf just fine so I think I'm leaning towards those. Bit more expensive though

Cheers for that. Still can't decide but I guess I'm probably better off buying the complete set. As for the movies personally I wouldn't get the box sets cause I didn't like them all. However for yourself getting them I would say the separate sets. Although I hate slim cases I think the boxes look nicer than the complete set and they would look better of the shelf. I prefer the design of the separate sets especially the front with the lenticular picture

I've decided to get the seprerate movie boxsets

They do look a lot nbetter than the complete set, and will actually go on my shelf

I'm holding of untill the new year, then I will get the complete TOS and the 2 boxsets and the TNG sampler, will take me a long time to get through that lot

Indiana Jones · 12-22-2011, 03:23 PM

I did originally have the separate movie sets but sold them when the Complete 1-10 set was reduced to £55 as I wanted to have each film in its own normal size case.

If I could go back in time though I would have kept the separate releases as they made go book ends and kept the rest of my collection from falling over plus they took up next to no space, something I am running short of now.

Now there's something we all need more of!
