First Details of Transformers: Victory DVD from Madman

Written by Big Bot on March 18, 2008 | DVD,Madman,News,Victory |

Madman Entertainment have put up a listing for Transformers: Victory, the last Generation One cartoon series, on DVD. The 4 disc set will arrive in Australia on 14th May with a unique set of extra features.

There will be 32 episodes with the original Japanese audio and English subtitles. Like the Super-God Masterforce set from Madman, there will probably only be the English audio on certain episodes. There is also the bonus that Transformers Zone will be included, which Metrodome didn’t include in the UK.

The full set of extra features can be found below:

Introductory booklet with episode guide
Includes RARE final Transformers episode: TRANSFORMERS: ZONE

What Do You Want In Transformers The Ark Volume 2?

With the apparent success of Transformers The Ark earlier this year, IDW Publishing are planning on a second volume with more original character models from the TV show and comics.

The collection will contain over 200 pages with stuff from Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory, Zone, Studio Ox designs, advertisements and much more. The book is due in the summer of 2008, but IDW want your suggestions for what you would like to see.

Hopefully the success of this book will lead to similar projects involving other Transformers series.

Latest Metrodome Newsletter

Metrodome have sent out their latest newsletter giving details on Masterforce, Victory, TFTM 20th Anniversary Edition and Sci-fi Cult Legends.

Dear Transformers fans,

We thought it was time we dropped you a line with some news on Transformers to light up the rest of your 2007, and we�re pleased to say that we�ve got plenty of good news. First up we want to tell you about an up and coming title called �Cult Sci Fi Legends�, a new collection from Metrodome that features three hours of classic animation. Not only does it feature two newly subtitled episodes from Transformers Victory that have never been released in the West, it also features classic episodes from Visionaries, Inhumanoids, Shadow Raiders, Bucky O Hare and Transformers � �More than meets the eye�. We�ve put this together to give Transformers fans a chance to sample some other revolutionary visions of science fiction, as well of course to give you a sneak preview of Transformers Victory � the final collection in the Takara series that�s being released in August this year. We believe that this collection brings forward titles from a time when writers and artists were willing to put �formula� aside and truly step into the unknown, all these properties made concerted efforts to push the boundaries of imagination and style � and that�s why they�ve become cult classics decades later. So whether you just want to indulge your nostalgia or discover some new worlds � we heartily recommend this collection to you. And all this is available for the frankly fantastic price of just £7.99 (inc p&p) from play.com. The collection is released on June 26th. In other news – as many of you have heard, we�ve had to move our Masterforce release to July 3rd, but in the next few days we�ll send you details on the extras, full artwork and the chance to download the first episode absolutely free! At the moment we�re hard at work finishing the subtitles on Victory and working on our forthcoming 20th anniversary release of Transformers The Movie, more news to come � but keep checking the forums at www.transformersdvd.com for updates. All the best Metrodome

Update from Metrodome

Written by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on November 23, 2006 | DVD,Metrodome,News,Victory | Tags:

We just received an email from Metrodome with some updates for their forthcoming releases.

Firstly, the Transformers The Movie special edition has been put back until May 2007, and will be direct from the negative, in widescreen and with an amended 5.1 audio track. Chris McFeely has once again been brought in to oversee and approve the release.

Victory is on course for a December 26th release, and they’ve brought in someone else to help out with the brand, who will be on the forum regularly to keep things on track.

Their website will also be relaunched next year with info on the new releases, and may even have some interactive elements.

Victory DVD Cover

Written by admin on October 26, 2006 | DVD,Metrodome,News,Victory |

The cover art of Metrodome’s Transformers Victory has already been revealed, but Metrodome have released a more finished version of the cover.

It matches up with the Headmasters and Masterforce sets, so will look good on your shelf. The only change that will be made is the BBFC logo in the bottom left corner will not be PG but U.
