    That too. Deserves it. Hate the way the released the dvds here. Season 1 volume 1 disc, and so on. But could not find them all or never saw them all. Ended up paying $200+ for the Region 1 set. Worth it. Best Batman cartoon ever. Well, first 3 seasons were until they blew it with the 4th lol

    I remember getting a four-disc collection a few years back but the other collections never came out here so it was orphaned (and I sold it to Autobreadticon)

    Then when I was in JB today I noticed that it appears that they finally have released the whole thing here, across 4 volumes. I think it's the whole thing as Volume 4 has the time jump episodes with Tim Drake added to the cast. If I hadn't seen this post I wouldn't have paid any attention when I walked by.

    I have never seen those 4 disc sets. Only the individual dvd disc sold separately. That's cool to see

    That's very cool, I've just looked up the wiki and it looks like there was only about 2 seasons, one with 68 episodes and the other with just over 20.

    I guess that makes it hard to market a season1 and season 2 box set.

    I wonder if there are any plans to take this to Blu-Ray remastered. I remember signing a petition a few years ago.

    Just got the good news that in 2 Sundays time, I can pick up my second ever car and craziest purchase of all time - a brand new Subaru Impreza Sport (hatch).

    Since moving to Japan this year... so for the last 9 months, i've been car-less! Where I am, it's more than doable - getting around on the bike is commonplace and shops are at most 15 mins away. I've become so fit, I can slaughter the big hill in town now, which is a far cry from the huffing and puffing when i first arrived!

    That actually made it harder to purchase the car - made me question how much i even need it. But it's also been a great & unusual experience of living it down for a while - i think i'm really going to appreciate having a car again as a result!

    My old car was a basic Mitsubishi Lancer that was 2 years old when i got it. Served me well for a decade and i was sad to sell it off. Sucks that the Lancer line is dead, i probably would have bought another if I could. Truth be told, i would have driven the old one around until the wheels fell off too!

    Since moving forced my hand though, and it's not like I buy a car every day... i decided to go all out. Well, almost - i put the idea of getting something with a turbo on the back burner for a while

    But, i've got the top of the range model coming. 18" wheels, up from whatever + plastic hubcaps i used to have on the Lancer! Sports pedals, leather wrap steering, an 8" display with the GPS and heaps of other cool stuff i barely knew existed a few months ago! I got it in ice silver metallic - i'm not one for vanity plates and despite not being a WRX - he'll be a reformatted BT Silverstreak in my mind!

    I turned down the chance to test drive (after i'd already bought it), so I can save my first drive for the moment where i devalue it off the lot I've sat in it and had a fiddle and really pleased so far though, and it's been getting good pre-release press too, so i think I made the right decision.

    Sorry for long post but i'm pretty excited Expect pics in a few weeks!

    As a kid I loved the Peanuts books so when Fantagraphics announced they'd be putting out hardcover collections of every strip I decided to start buying them.

    This was making a very long term commitment to make back in 2004 (my first ever Amazon.com purchase!) but 12 years later the final volume has been released and my collection is complete!
