Full Series Season 6/ Bonus Material Discussion (Spoiler Free)

i think they recalled all the saga dvds just before the blu ray release back in the day

 

This is so much more fitting:

 

I did ask, at the risk of looking like a SW crazy, and the guy I spoke to was just as surprised as I was that they had absolutely zero TCW box sets. Yet, he told me he had been off work for a few days, so he had no idea what was going on. Meh ...

That Walmart display is absolutely crazy though! I'll be poking around tomorrow to see if there's anything like that in my area.

 

Update: My Walmart does not have that display, they recently did re-stock ... get this ... Season One on blu-ray ... that was the only season they had. It was not repackaged, yet it was in the same area as all the other Disney stuff now. Make of this what you will.

 

I was in Wal-Mart the other day and for the first time since I've been watching the show they didn't have any TCW DVD's at all.

 

Yeah, I haven't seen any in my Wal-Mart either. I may have to go by my Target or Best Buy and see if they have any. I did find a page to watch them online in the meantime.

 

I'll have to check around when I'm out tomorrow. The disappearance of the TCW DVD's and Blu Ray's is making me uneasy about whether Season 5 will be released or not.

EDIT: I just checked the local Best Buys, they do not have any TCW Blu Rays or DVDs in stock.

 

Well damn, thought you all were being crazy, checked bestbuy.com's stock for seasons 3 & 4 blu-ray and it is unavailable everywhere.

Still on Amazon though.

 

I still regularly see all 4 season sets in stores around here, just last weekend I saw them at Sam's. I'll check a few stores around here tomorrow. Maybe its just a trick of the mind with everything that's happened I've been seeing even more TCW merchandise than normal. A while back when I wrote my letters the only small things I found to easily pack in the envelopes were the wrist bands I posted a pic of. While its nothing major I've seen lots more little things like plates, glasses, posters, pens/pencils, party stuff, bedding, and I saw Easter stuff. Hell, even the stickers are better; when I got them for my letters I only found one set that was being sold. Now Target has a good choice of stickers sets.

 

My Best Buy only had Season 4, only on DVD. Target literally had Seasons 1-4 just last week, and this week, nothing at all. As I said, Walmart, had only Season 1 on blu-ray, which I thought was strange. To me it reeks of stores only putting out whatever back-stock they have left over, or pulling it completely. I'm sure if distribution had changed from WB to Disney, Disney can't recall the WB distributed copies, as they were sold wholesale when WB had the rights. Once all those copies are depleted from retail chains, we might see TCW Season sets with a Disney copyright reissued, yet I think it would be more likely for them to release a box set of the whole enchilada, including the "bonus" arcs, and probably later in the year when Season 5 comes out. But who knows? I just hope it doesn't get completely put on the back-burner.

 

I'm more interested in Matt Michnovetz's arc than the Boba Fett/Cad Bane arc.

 

I checked on the Toys R Us website, they show that at least the movie MIGHT be in my local store...

As for the other ones, the stores offer shipping to the local ones, of course it takes 5 to 10 business days...

InterestingLurker, is the story arc you are referring to the one in the starwars.com Dave Filoni clip, the one where the clone's mind programming is glitched and he thinks Order 66 is supposed to be happening?

 

Being in the UK I don't usually see much TCW around... but the other day I saw TCW toys and DVDs in my local Sainsbury's - granted it was the volume releases and not complete seasons but that's the first time I've ever seen any TCW stuff. Granted, my local stores have never sold the complete seasons so I've always had to buy online...

 

i bought my season 4 blu ray off sainsburys direct for around £35 inc delivery on release and the indie set aswell

 

The distribution rights would not change unless Disney had bought them from WB which is possible. That could explain discs being removed from the shelf, otherwise it would be business as usual for WB with Clone Wars discs.

 

Disney tends to put its own DVDs in the vault after a while.

 

There are plenty of Disney shows in that vault that will likely never again see the light of day. Disney Afternoon shows like Talespin, ,Ducktales, and Rescue Rangers come time mind after their failed DVD releases thanks to lack of promotion.

 

Which is complete poo-doo because I would own every season of Ducktales if they released them on blu-ray.

 

Its criminal Gargoyles wasn't finished, drives me nuts!

I really hope TCW isn't being taken of the shelves because I haven't got any of the seasons yet! Although just yesterday I saw Season 3 and 4 at Target on both Blu-Ray and DVD.

 

I own all 4 blu ray sets. They're wonderful releases.

If I don't get season five, my rage over this whole ordeal will increase.

 

Yeah it sucks what they did to Gargoyles. Nevermind that the SLG Comics did well its the god damn lack of DVD sales that Marvel sites when Weisman pushes them for a comic. And its Disney's fault the sets sold so poorly for failing the promote them. By contrast Nickelodeon has started releasing the old Nicktoon like Rocko's Modern Life on DVD sets and they are selling well, likely thanks to being promoted during The Ns old school block at midnight.

Amazon should have the TCW for a long time even if the big boxes pull the sets off the shelves. They normally do. You can probably wait and buy them there.

 

I waited for a complete series blu ray box set release. I intend to wait until that happens. Hopefully, I'll live long enough.
