New Boxset coming out

Looks promising. Hopefully, it'll be just as good as New Video's Puppet Master Boxset, if better, and that there will be extra features and maybe a new transfer for the original film.

Looks like five discs, so they're not including Trancers 6. Still, here's hoping it's finally a worth-buying collection with decent transfers.

Most likely its the same DVD set that Full Moon put out. Same transfer, and special features. Doubt TRANCERS 6 is in the set, and I'm not sure why it was left out.

Most likely because it already has a DVD release of its own, so I wouldn't consider 6 being excluded that big of a loss.

Judging from how the PM boxset was ported over from the original boxset, I think it's most likely that this upcoming Trancers boxset will be ported over from the Australian "import" boxset that Full Moon put out. The same could also apply to that new Subspecies boxset that New Video is releasing next month as well.

(I hate flip disks).


I know how you feel.

Never actually bought it, but if you want it, be my guest, although the New Video boxset that's coming out might be cheaper. Whatever you decide, I'm not going to stop you. Do what you will. Oh, and my pleasure.

I believe New Video Group have legal rights for a new box set, most likely re-packaged from the earlier Full Moon collections.

Personally I think those Australian imports were illegal bootlegs made by Full Moon to fool Paramount, whom still owned distribution at the time. Notice how Kangaroo Video disappeared around 2007, just when Full Moon gained back distribution ownership?
