Geeze that's cheap! At least $10 cheaper than when Madman was having their 50% off everything sale.

Considering the individual seasons were being sold for like $60-70 each when the were first released, this certainly shows how much profiteering goes on with these sort of DVDs.

Thanks Trailer Park Ninja!

Guess what I am buying on the weekend:D

I'll have double copies of some episodes since I have a few of the original box sets.... was gonna buy the rest since Toys r us have them for $35 but may as well get the whole lot for this price!

Does anyone who has bought it recently know if it still includes the bonus comic? I lost mine and need to replace it (yes I'm a comics completist). Also anyone selling it, would be happy to make an offer on just the comic keep the DVDs.

Nice, if I didn't have the original US versions... and could find this set anywhere... I'd be thrilled about it.

I've spent enough on 20% off CDs already this week, mind you!

Comes with a booklet sized comic showing the construction of Autobot city, followed by Hotrod fending off Soundwave and his cassettes as they try to steal the Matrix.

Yea, pulling a K-mart.

And yes, I went in yesterday just to look, none of those at all, only the expensive "seasons" ones were there. :rolleyes:

I picked up one yesterday arvo from the Perth JB Hifi but I didnt know it had a comic in it. All it had was the two dvd cases and a picture of the matrix plus the metal tin (which has a slight dent on the front but who cares).

I picked up the G1 complete collection from JB-Hifi awhile ago for $80 and completed my other original boxsets with the recent Madman sale. The Complete Collection really displays well in my DVD collection in the lounge room with the toybox look. Always a talking point for visitors who come over and usually starts off a great conversation about the Saturday morning cartoons and toys.

The comic should be in the back of the first plastic boxset in the metal tin. Hope you didn't miss out

Went into JB yesterday to pick one up, noticed 3 other guys wearing TF shirts so had a feeling it would be sold out. Bugger..... they said it would of been $110 though but if they ordered it in I was gonna have to pay $140. Maybe they were looking at the wrong item on the sotck list?

Ether way my birthday is in a bit over a month so will hit up the olds for it me thinks lol

Yep, even looked in a different one yesterday, none there either.

I'll post back the count of them I'll see this week now the sale is over. I'm not really impressed with jb anyway. Their prices arn't really that crash hot as they are. The only thing I've ever found them good on is blank dvds. All their other stuff that they're more known for, hifi, electronics, I can get cheaper elsewhere.
