No real surprises here. It looks a bit busy though. Like DMC I won't be getting this unless the price gets a lot cheaper.

Ugh, I think I'll pass on this release. The upscaled DVD versions of the singles will be good enough for me, plus I'm guessing the packaging of TSR won't jive well with the rest of my FMP collection.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of the cover art either. Busy is the best word for it. High relative price point aside, I'd get it if there's a meaningful improvement in video/audio quality vs. the DVD. I'm still trying to get a firm grasp on that aspect.

Cover looks okay. I'll probably get this one since I've been waiting for this release forever ^^

I love the cover. Same artwork as the gorgeous box. Since it's just an upscale, though, I think I might pass.

This artwork is to busy for my tastes.

The cover looks okay, even if it's a little crowded. I have a high interest in this show, and even if the release is only an upscale I'm still interested in picking up this Blu-ray version. The price is a little high though.

I plan on buying this, but it's not high on my priority list. Though it does feel a bit off to buy this on bluray before the other two. And I agree that the $100 price tag is a bit high, but then again, a few years ago, that's how much we were paying for 12 episode series on single DVD's. Remember the once industry norm of 3 episodes per disc?

Though I want this, I will probably hold off until I get Freedom on bluray. I really don't have any interest in rewatching TSR right now, but I still have yet to finish Freedom.
