oh baby 
s**t. didnt even know there was an animated series. oh well
Finally. And thank god they didn't price it at $99 like the other Star Trek seasons. I will definitely pick this up.
I'm surprised, considering the price of TOS, that this isn't SRP'd around $120!
Animation: the final frontier. Sounds fun.
Glad to see that the Filmation stuff is starting to finally come out on DVD. BCI's He-Man sets have been a lot of fun and I plan on getting their new Flash Gordon set very soon. Hopefully Paramount will take the same kind of care with these that BCI has with the other Filmation shows. Now if only BCI or someone would release Tarzan:Lord of the Apes and Warner would get the ball rolling on Filmation's Batman series...
About bloody time! But it looks like it's gonna be well worth the wait. great packaging AND extra stuff to boot?!? Was definitely not expecting that. Sign me up.

Watched the re-runs when I was a kid, would I buy this probably not as I'm not really a trek fan. This is great for fans tho.
Nah. Animation for sure.
cool...can't wait to get this.
WOW! The packaging is awesome, there seem to be good extras, and the price is right! I may just pick this up.
The show is beyond horrible, but at least the price is right for Trekkies. Now if only all the other shows were that cheap. Plus, I'd love both the 25th and 30th Anniversary TV Specials on DVD.
I honestly couldn't believe it when I saw the RRP. That's extremely modest for a Star Trek set! I'll be definitely getting this.
By the way, the banner on top of the page...that is so obviously Enterprise-A. :D

The drawing on the top of the page doesn't reflect the content of the show, which takes place during the original series. I also want to point out that the NCC-1701 ship looked like that for 3 movies

Hehe...not only the wrong Enterprise, but it looks as if the Trek gang stole their boots off of some guy's back porch in The Shire...

Well now we know why--it's because Kirk and the Gang stole'em.

A cheesy classic at a good price - shock horror Paramount!

Remember flicking past these when they were on reruns, animated Shatner is frightening.
Stories written for children, animation as stock and repetitive movements, bad voice acting, kooky aliens ... Heck yes I will be buying this!!! Finally, I will have all adventures of Kirk and Crew on DVD. I like the package, it looks slightly similar to the original series hard plastic cases.

That's how they must be referred to from now on: Kirk and the Gang. So much like and yet so much different than Cool and the Gang. I think they need to retool the Trek reboot to match that idea: Starfleet Academy featuring Kirk and the Gang.

I knew that initial $35 price tag was too good to be true.
I cant believe how cheap this is!!!! I love this toon!!! one of my 1st real obesessions!!! cant wait cant wait cant wait!!!
Did they just up the SRP? Sheesh.
Yep they did.
This went from a no-brainer pickup to something I probably won't get. What is wrong with Paramount when it comes to Star Trek pricing?
