The first release from Maximum Entertainment featured the first 8 episodes of the 2001 series Transformers: Robots In Disguise. The volume was originally announced with only 5 episodes but was bumped up to 8. This volume was meant to be the first of a series comprising the entire series but due to unexpectedly high sales, brought on by the fact it was the first time RID had been released on DVD in the world, future volumes were cancelled and 2 boxsets were released.

Megatron and his evil Predacons arrive on Earth with one goal: Destruction! This causes a secret force of goodness to emerge: the heroic Autobots, led by Optimus Prime. They have hidden their existence by taking the forms of vehicles, but now they reveal their true nature to fight Megatron and protect Earth. They are Transformers: Robots In Disguise!

Episodes
01. Battle Protocol
02. An Explosive Situation
03. Bullet Train Rescue
04. Spy Changers to the Rescue
