Animated movie release date

[Gutsman Heavy]

Dunno if we know this but the Transformers Animated - Transform And Roll Out feature is coming out July 3rd and can be pre-ordered here

I preordered mine from JB Hi-Fi last night.

They're releasing this on its own?

Wouldn't it be better to combine it with Season 1?

it would be better for the customer, but 2 sets means more $$$

That assuming there will be a season box set... there hasn't been a R4 box set for any recent TF series

Im hoping that there will be the boxset, since all Paramount AU will have to do is recode the US release.

I did see the US R1 Movie set in Phantomzone Chatswood. not sure of the price.

Yeh, but for local releases of the shows, australia is pretty poor. No box set for Armada (did they even realease the whole series in seperate volumes) ditto for Energon and Cybertron. How long did it take us to get Beast Machines??!?!?

I notice amazon.com has a complete box set of Cybertron region 0 for pre-order.

Those were mentioned at BotCon - Cybertron boxset, Animated 'movie', and Animated Season 1 - all being released within the next few months in America, and probably here as well, thanks to Paramount being international.
I hate the way the first 3 episodes of Animated are called a Movie, and are not considered part of Season 1. It throws out the count of episodes (13 eps to a season), and allows Paramount to sell 2 DVD releases, for more profit, at our expense.

Armada had no boxset but the entire series was released in single disc format and were distributed by Magna Pacific.

Id say that with Transformers popularity still soaring from the movie that we will see the same releases here as the US gets.

Armada had a chinese release as a complete boxset, the eps also have the option of the American dub. Whether its completely legal or not....


who cares i got all Armada eps


Its stupid that the first few eps of Animated are seperate, im sure some kid will be wondering whats goin on if he hasn't seen the first eps
