Yeah, especially for animation where there's likely to be not extra detail to be brought out (and upscaling by good players/TVs will iron out the rest). This is one nice advantage of the DVD to blu-ray transition versus VHS to DVD, DVD can remain viable basically for forever where blu-ray is excessive.
Unless this is about physical media period, in which case... yeah, there's Netflix, and looking at Bobby's World on Amazon there's a good chance they or Apple will sell the episodes digitally too.
Yeah, it's actually kind of amazing.

Volume 1 of 2. They're releasing the original MMPR in two volumes. I would think the set from Time Life will be the definitive one though, as it will include mostly everything people will want.

Oh God...that MMPR set may be the first and only collector's DVD set I ever buy.
I am a huge fan of Power Rangers :3

OG Green Ranger will always be the best ranger, and you're talking about white Tommy was never the Silver ranger.

Nope the best Ranger is Jason.

That Time-Life deal sounds amazing. MMPR seasons are mandatory, all the others are tempting though

Refer to my gif as that's what you are. OG Green ranger will forever be the best.

Except for the time when Jason totally beat Tommy at the martial arts tournament at the Juice Bar, and in the Dark Dimension and Tommy cheated by using powers!!

Saban owns PR again, and it's being accompanied with seasons that weren't altered, so probably not.

I have never felt so old... My childhood is now a Time Life offer....
They did this with Ghostbusters a few years ago and it sold gangbusters. I kinda feel bad for not buying that set, as it sold out so quick, so I'm not making the same mistake with this one!
edit: Seems the Ghostbusters set is still available...I may have to sell a kidney to buy one... http://www.timelife.com/webapp/wcs/...&storeId=1001&catalogId=10001&productId=75501
For reference, here was the awesome set they made up for Ghostbusters. All of the DVD cases were Steelbooks, and were housed in a beautiful box made up to look like the fire station.
The complete DVD series details below.

TLDR
- "The current planned ship date is August 6th"
- "Note that there is NOT any overall "slipcase" packaging for this title: these are the same sets that Shout! Factory will be selling individually, and Time Life will take the separate disc cases and the action figure, and wrap them in bubble wrap and send them to you in a regular shipping carton."
- "The price is $219.95 SRP"
- "Additionally, with this title you'll also get a rare Bandai-made action figure of Morphin Red Ranger (Jason) wearing the "Dragon Shield" (which, in case you've forgotten, is the golden shoulder pad/chestpiece assembly) usually seen on the Morphin Green Ranger (Tommy)."

I...want to buy this....but I don't really know why...Box art:
meh.
$13.95 on Amazon. God damn.
Here's a relative picture of me when I was younger:
Hell yeah. Flute playing, Godzilla riding Tommy was the fucking bomb.
The price has actually increased to $17.94 now. Even at that price though, I would think one would rather pay $125 buying the seven sets from Amazon individually as opposed to paying $200+ buying them from Time Life. One would also imagine Amazon would have the other sets at a lower $13.xx price point again as they new sets are made available for preorder, meaning you'll end up paying sub $100.

Yup, hahahahaha.
Damn, my little brother loved this show. I think I was a little too old for it, or at least felt that way. But it is incredibly trippy even as I watch clips right now.
Green Ranger had a flute dagger/sword, White Ranger had Saba the saber.
Saba was badass.

$220 is so over priced...but I'd probably get it. D:
Us Canadians can now preorder.

Also, it's been clarified that none of the seasons will be released individually, only the very first few seasons and only in small parts, so this is the only way to get all seven seasons apparently.
Guess I'm going to have to bite the bullet. At least you can pay in installments so it will feel like I'm paying less =D

The last update from Diskotek about Pizza Cats:
"We have two street dates left for this year. October 16th, and November 6th. Trying to get out Casshan, Pizza Cats Part one 1-26, Galaxy Express Eternal Fantasy, and two more that haven't been announced yet."

Is that a 3-3/4" figure like the recent Disney line? The lighting is confusing.
What was cool about the figures from the original 90s runs is that their weapons could combine into the Power Blaster. I never got those figures, but the one I really wanted was the Power Blaster set itself.

You know, I never actually buy toku weapons, only morphing devices. I always imagined they're as big as they are in the show.
Yo, I got some news!

MMPR Only boxset.
Seasons 4-7 Boxset.

Finally! Samurai Pizza Cats!
Soooo happy!
I think I'll get Power Rangers too, only ever seen season 1 and bits and pieces after that on VHS. I remember the movie came out here and no one knew wtf White Ranger and stuff was cause it wasn't on TV here anymore lol.

Dude, watch an episode of the Real Ghostbusters, then watch an episode of Power Rangers and tell me which is better.
We watched the pilot episode on Netflix a while back and it was beyond godawful, NO nostalgic powers could make that show enjoyable on any level.
Edit: Yeah SPC though, that shit is awesome!
Try a Power Rangers show that isn't MMPR. MMPR's awfulness is very well documented.
Boss Doggie

Oh apparently SPC is getting a relaunch in Japan, with hi-quality DVD releases and figures!
Source? I'd buy the shit out of some SPC figures, depending on who.
Edit: Oh, I guess this is about that Speedy figure revealed in January. Meh. I'd take just about anyone else.
