I've never seen the Joel episode, but I've seen all three of those Mike episodes.
Since Shout is in control of the sets, maybe there will be some hope that Diabolik will get released.

Wow first time they have a season 7 episode ever. Those were tougher to get since it was only a 6 episode season (from 24 normally) so they opted for the more expensive movies to get rights to.

Werewolf is also very funny.

I love the episodes they picked. My only minor disappointment is the fact we already have really good fan copies of 706- Laserblast, 904- Werewolf and 1004- Future War on the digital archive project. Minor complaint because I am buying them regardless, but I wish they would have gone for another Joel episode.

And, of these, only 706 - Laserblast is a historically important series episode and only it and 904 - Werewolf are fan favorites. Also, TWO Sci-Fi Channel era episodes in one boxed set again!? (Shout! Factory needs to be told that the earlier Comedy Central era episodes are the ones that fans will quickly get out the wallets for, not ones from the Sci-Fi Channel era which have many good-quality copies floating around.)
Simply substituting a good early Joel episode (such as 201 - Rocketship X-M) for 1004 - Future War (which I think is a weak episode from one of the weaker seasons) would've improved this set immensely.

Freakin' Sweeet. I have been hoping that they would release Future War for a long time (I watched it on the day I was married, so it has some sentimental value). I prefer the Mike episodes, but a 50/50 Joel split would have been better.

Wow! Now that's some cover art. I will sell blood to get this set if neccesary.

Wow, I like it. You what would be really exciting, if the next set had a Servo statue, then Gypsy, cambot, Joel, Mike, Pearl, Clayton, etc, etc, etc. It could be the staple of their sets.
