Dungeons & Dragons: The Animated Series - Amazon $12.99
I just read over in the DVD forum that the animated Dungeons & Dragons is being re-released by Mill Creek Entertainment. This time it'll be the entire series again, but also a 1 disc "Beginnings" release. Amazon seems to have the entire series for sale for $12.99 pre-order for a August 25th release. Not sure if the price was meant to be the 1 disc price, so if you'e interested, pre-order now.

Bargain. My favorite cartoon growing up... But I already bought the complete series the first time it was released...

I broke down and bought the BCI release after the announcement they were closing shop, would have preferred this cheaper version, but I guess the original packaging is pretty good.
Looks like these Mill Creek pickups will be a great way to get Ultraman.

I thought the other set was complete and contained all of the eps. I know the writer of the show has a website containing the script he wrote for an episode to end the show where they get home, but it was never made.

Man, I wish they made one final episode to wrap it up....but my guess is that Mill Creek intends to just offer some options like the He-Man series. Thing is, there's so few episodes in this D&D series. I just noticed the Beginnings disc pre-sale price is $14.98.

Darn, I can't quite remember if I bought the original release or not. Would hate to miss this price if it's a mistake.
Edit to add: Wait, it's a pre-order, so i can go ahead and order and have plenty of time to cancel if necessary.
Edit again to add: Wait, it's only 50% off, so I'm sure we'll see this price again.

Here is info on the change from BCI to Mill Creek. Note that there is a run-time discrepancy, and this new release is listed at only 3 discs, so likely has no bonus material...

As I never got the original set, is it 27 episodes spread out over 5 discs? Even with bonus material, that seems to stretch everything quite a bit. If they everage 5 episodes at 22 minutes each per disc, that's just under two hours. I didn't think the old set had that many hours crammed on each disc.

I'm ashamed to admit that I expect to find at least 30 or so buried and forgotten DVDs the next time I clean house.

So is this basically the same release, only minus all the extras?

The BCI set contained all the produced episodes and the unproduced final episode was made into a "radio play" style presentation with music, sound effects and narration. It was produced by Wally Wingert (Family Guy, Invader Zim) and features a number of professional voice over talents (and the original Shiela the Thief).

FYI for those ordering this: The DVDs come in black paper sleeves that stack inside the plastic DVD case.
