I'm not much of a PR fan. I never saw anything past Mighty Morphin' or the first movie.

That said, this is an epically cool set.

And to reply to what you said about the empty spaces for the 2 movies, is that basically a comfirmation that the movies are getting re-released, or that the empty slots are just there if people want to put the older movie discs in them?

[Me-Hostage]

I really want this set, but I'm on the fence about it. First off, I already have the earlier sets, you know the ones they released when they said they weren't releasing anything past a certain season because Saban had deals in place with Lionsgate to release the later seasons... now they don't? I call BS to get the first two sets to sale as much as they could, then hit us with an even bigger set. I feel a little ripped off if I end up buying this new set.

Secondly, how are the DVDs housed? I've asked on their Facebook page, but they ignore the question. Clearly they aren't going to fit 20 cases inside that thing. My guess would be each disc is just stuck in their with no protection like the Toy Story BD set, or the TMNT set... glad idea to me. Even if they were inside paper sleeves, I say bad idea. They said this is only for the collector's, but I know many collector's who won't buy this for those same reasons...

place holders for the older dvds.

That's pretty awesome! Shame they're not Blu-rays...Maybe they'll release a Blue ranger version for a Blu-ray set?

For the first bold, Lionsgate still retains the rights to Samurai, Super Samurai, and Megaforce. They cooperated with Shout! to include those in this set.

Second bold - The DVDs are housed in cases that hold ten discs and are inspired by the Power Coins, and go in slots in back of the helmet.

We need pics! More pics!

[Bored Gaymer]

Hmm, I might still just get the set that was released last year with the first 3 seasons. Have been waiting for a price drop for like forever on Amazon.

Would like to see more pictures for this set though. And a price...

[Hatter]

Limited to 2000. I really do despise fake scarcity.

[A Sith Lord?]

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

I MUST HAVE THIS.

I actually will buy 2, one for watching and another nobody will ever touch.

I watched every episode from Mighty Morphin to end of Lost Galaxy. Stopped with Lightspeed Rescue and Time Force. Watched a little bit of Wild Force, a little bit of Dino Thunder, skipped Ninja Storm. I got back into it with SPD big time, but then was let down by Mystic Force. Haven't seen any since then. Perhaps this set will get me back on everything.

This and how Shout!/Scream got it's hands on some ITC titles Lionsgate has makes me believe that the 2 have/will have a deal. Next thing you know; Dead Alive Collector's Edition.

You know what would've cool; have 2 additional spaces for the movies. That way there can be 100 discs!

EDIT: OMG! I saw the video and I knew it! 2 spaces for the movies. Shout!, you're always one step ahead.

I'll pass.Huge fan of the original series and a few of the later ones but I really don't want to add all of the season.The only seasons I want are.

Might Morph Power Rangers(which is already nearly fully released)
Power Rangers Turbo
Power Rangers in Space
Power Rangers Lost Galaxy
Power Rangers Dino Thunder

thats it for me.I really wise that the would release these season on Blu-Ray,even if the picture quality is sub par.

[Scottie]

Yeah, I'm definitely buying this. haha.

[BigmoufStrikes]

They should have used the green rangers helmet...no buy from me

The cases are tins, as far as we know now, the DVDs are just stacked together in these tins. If there's a way to keep the disc apart and from scratching when they are being shipped, I might buy, but I have a feeling they will be stacked together like Lionsgate did with Super Samurai when they released the complete series.

But the Red Ranger is the leader in all the series..... I really want this, but I doubt it will be priced anywhere under 300, all I care for is MMPR anyways. I'd love a set with MMPR and Zyuranger with it.

I lost interest after the original season ended so owning all those additional seasons doesn't really peg my interest.
Dino Thunder has it's moments. Also, Emma Lahana is easily the most attractive actress to grace that franchise. Period.
