How many Star Trek DVDs did you buy?
I'm just curious. Out of the people that bought the new Star Trek SE's, I wonder who bought them all.
Personally, I bought all 10. Even in the "bad" Star Trek movies, I can still find enough to like to make it worth a purchase to me. IMO, even the worst movies are still better than most episodes. I guess that's why I'm a bigger fan of the movies (at least from the Original Series) than I am of the series itself. For TNG, I like the series better than the movies, but I still enjoy the movies though.
But...I'd be lying if I said there wasn't a part of wanted to buy these DVDs just so I could complete the collection. Don't get me wrong, my Star Trek DVDs are some of my most watched DVD in my collection, but I'd say I was probably more excited about adding Nemesis DVD to my collection than I was about actually having the movie.
So, anyway, just out of curiousity, I want to know how many people here that bought any of the Star Trek SE bought all of them.

The "trilogy" (2-4) & 6, + the Picard set... That's about all I have any interest in. Although if the DS9 series ever drops to a reason price I may pick that up.

Got them all (the SEs)
As far as TV goes - just TOS - If TNG and Enterprise were cheaper I'd buy them up in a heartbeat, but I refuse to pay $80 for a television season...

i waited for the big ass box set....i'll be getting it during "the" sale. I owned the first season of TNG, but sold it off after i figured out how much it was going to cost me to buy all of it. i also bought season 1 of DS9 for under ten bucks and sold it quickly and made a buck.

I have "Star Trek: The Motion Picture", because it only came as a Special Edition.
All the other nine Trek movies I have the barebones editions of.
I bought all seasons of The Next Generation and Voyager, but none of the other series.

As far as the TV series goes, I have the entire TNG series and that's it. I managed to get them all used for $50 & $60 at Hastings, and I had built up alot of store credit so that deflected most of the cost.

I have the first nine movies, and am waiting for the inevitable DDD sale to get the new Nemesis. The only tv set I have is the Picard collection. I'm hoping Paramount drops the season sets to under $50 and then I'll happily pick up all the TOS and TNG sets.

Never really watched the show but I do enjoy the majority of the movies. Don't own any yet but I plan on eventually picking up 1-6, 8-9. I wasn't a fan of Generations or Nemesis.

Just I-IV, VI, *and First Contact. Basically the only ones I liked.
Would like the get the TOS, and some TNG. Someday. When Paramount gets a bit more realistic with their prices.

I have the whole Star Trek Franchise. The only thing I have missing is Enterprise Season Four. If they can release the animated Trek, I will be a very happy man.

I have all but Nemesis. I'll probably pick that up eventually, even though I don't care for it. I've gotta have the matching set. Come to think of it, the Motion Picture looks alittle out of place, gold instead of silver.
