Am I mistaken?

But it seems that they are not putting all the episodes of the tv show onto one disk.

Yep. Would've been a purchase for me otherwise. Shame of it is, it would've been easy and relatively cheap to put them all on a little two-disc set. (wasn't there only 14 eps total - plus the junk heap special?)

All well, more money to spend on Seinfeld and Spidey 2...

Yeah, 13 half hour episodes and the 1 hour "The Great Heep" episode, according to TVtome. They released a few episodes "as aired" of both Droids and Ewoks on VHS a long time ago in standard cardboard VHS sleeves. Later on, they took episodes from the entire series and edited them into two 90 minute "movies" for each series, Droids and Ewoks. They released these on 2 separate clamshell case VHS tapes for each series. The DVDs basically have one of these tapes on each side of the DVD. When editing them into these movies, the theme songs from each show were lost as well.

Here's a cool site about both Droids and Ewoks:

The above site says that the Droids episode The Great Heep takes place after the first 9 episodes and not where it aired, after all 13 other episodes. Anyone know any more info about this?

Nop. Not the full series. The only way to get the full series is through "alternate" means.

Yeah, I thought this was a strange decision. Very VHS-like.

These shows (Droids/Ewoks) deserve complete season editions. It wouldn't require many discs and wouldn't radically increase costs. That would be a no-brainer purchase for many more people.

Many times, full seasons of animated shows follow a few initial individual discs. Hopefully, that will be the case here.

Maybe they know that Star Wars fans aren't very picky about things like this.

Yeah, SW fans don't nit-pick at all...
