Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Season 1, Part One

I saw the original series back in the 80s, and like everyone did back then--loved it. I watched the cartoons regularly, and each movie as it came out. The franchise had a good run, but I didn't expect to see it come back. Much to my surprise, in 2003 a brand new cartoon appeared--and the turtles were more serious, the Shredder was actually intimidating, rather than the bumbling villain from the 80s--it didn't take long before I was sucked in. But the DVD releases were lackluster. When everyone else was releasing season sets for $40-$50, you could only buy TMNT episodes 3 to a disc at $15! So I held off on buying them, hoping the company would come to their senses. And now that I was just getting to the point of thinking I would have to go hunt down all the older 3-episode DVDs, they finally wised up! I feel bad for those who already bought the older DVDs, but I'm very glad they are finally being released in this format. It's better for collectors, and more friendly to those who might not have wanted to pay so much for the single discs (like me).The 2003 cartoon has had great art/animation, and a more serious, exciting tone that has made it alot of fun to watch. If you were a fan of the old show but have never seen this, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.Since no one else has posted it, here's a list of the episodes that should be on this disc (from an online episode guide-may vary a little):1- 1 Things Change1- 2 A Better Mousetrap (1)1- 3 Attack of the Mousers (2)1- 4 Meet Casey Jones1- 5 Nano1- 6 Darkness on the Edge of Town1- 7 The Way of Invisibility1- 8 Fallen Angel1- 9 Garbageman1-10 The Shredder Strikes (1)1-11 The Shredder Strikes (2)1-12 The Unconvincing Turtle TitanOverall this should be a great set of solid episodes. I'm definitely pre-ordering this one.

This is amazing, how far things have come. The very first dvd of this show only included 3 episodes. Now six fit on one disc!This show won me back to comics in general and TMNT in particular. From the first episode I saw (which is NOT on this disc, btw) I was hooked, and as soon as I could watch all of the past episodes I did-- and was more and more amazed! It has the feel of the comics (even adapting some of the old comics stories as well), plus a feel that is more "grown up" than the fun-loving toon of the 80s/90s. All of the voice actors are fantastic, especially- forgive my spelling-- Michael Sinternnclaus as Leo, Sam Regal as Don, John Campbell as Raph, Wayne Grayson as Mikey, and Darren Dunstan as Splinter-- and they play off of each other smoothly. The family bond is really apparent in all of the episodes, and as I look at my other DVDs from the following seasons, I can see growth and development in the characters. The action sequences in some of the episodes is awesome! The fight with Shredder in "The Shredder Strikes" parts one and two are wicked (and only surpassed in "The Shredder Strikes Back" parts one and two, not on this disc), the humor is not over the top, and you get the feel that these could be real characters-- indeed, a real family.Like Nano in the one episode, and Leatherhead in later ones, that is the most important thing: Family. And I'm glad that this family has come into my life.

I personally have gone out of the way to own every DVD release of this series that I can get my hands on. It's a great show with a lot of character growth, strong plot, fun comedy and action packed fight scenes. I only wish that they had an entire series box set of the show including Fast Forward and Back to the Sewers.The DVD set is a great way to be able to share this series with fellow TMNT fans or friends that you want to share the series with. This is the closes we've had to a TV series of the original TMNT comics. Highly recommended.

This is a great series. I remember watching it on CW4Kids when I was young. When I was in middle school you could watch the whole series on YouTube as well (which, as I found today, is no longer the case, lol). I honestly don’t mind paying for it now that I can, it’s such a wonderful show with well written stories and great animation. Watching it now as an adult I enjoy it just as much! If you were a fan then or not, this is a great purchase. I hope they have the rest of the series so I can rewatch the whole thing :)

I at one time collected the volumes, but when the episodes became out of order, I stopped.This is for anyone who doesn't want 6-8 volumes per season. This is something Funimation and 4kids should have been doing Since day one. This is an obvious beginning showing they are releasing all 4 seasons in 2 volumes sets with 2 discs in each volume. By the time they get to Season 4, it is my hope they will have Season 5 (dubbed "The Lost Season" in many respects) Ready to release as a final addition to this collection.This series outstands the original 1989 series for various reasons. delving back into the original black and white mirage comics for reference, This series expands in plot, character development and consistency where the 10-year running series merely entertained the idea the turtles were Ninja and barely gave it true form or reference.While I collect and admire the old series for its longevity and childhood memories, TMNT2003 is one series I watch over and over again.If you have been Reluctant to collect this series thus far because of the amount of volumes and the price each volume costs, I recommend to buy this and start the Turtles story all over again.

Mio figlio di 3 anni mi chiede di rivedere sempre i cartoni delle Tartarughe Ninja, con questi DVD ho risolto. 4 DVD con tutta la prima serie.Questo cartone animato è per bambini dai 6 anni in su in quanto i cattivi sono veramente brutti e possono impressionare un pò, tanto è vero che dopo un episodio mio figlio mi chiede di ritornare a vedere i Paw Patrol sulla televisione.Tempo di consegna e imballaggio perfetti come sempre

Ho comprato questo cofanetto per mio figlio che aveva visto tutte le puntate della prima stagione in televisione ma ora, non riuscendo più a ricevere il canale che le trasmette, ho voluto comprargli il cofanetto. Che dire, ha fatto una full immersion di 2 giorni e se l'è visto tutti. Non c'era niente da fare, doveva guardare le tartarughe ninja.Il cartone è molto ben fatto ed ha ricevuto un bel restyling rispetto al cartone degli anni '90. Il bello poi è che ora vendono i personaggi giocattolo del cartone.

Le tartarughe che aspettavamo! La serie è realizzata magistralmente, con momenti di comicità unici. Le caratteristiche peculiari di ogni tartaruga sono state finalmente accentuate, rendendole diverse fra di loro, ma unite come fratelli ninja. Prende tutto ciò che c'è di buono nel fumetto e nella epica serie degli anni Novanta.

È proprio quello che cercavamo...il mio bambino di 4 anni e mezzo vive per loro e riuscire a comprare tutta la stagione ad un prezzo così è davvero superUnica pecca la confezione, il cartoncino è aperto sul fondo e quindi ad estrarlo dal mobile si deve stare attenti a nonnfar cadere i dvdHo risolto buttandolo via direttamente perchè i primi giorni con i bambini erano caduti già troppe volte tanto le copertine dei dvd sono cmq bellePer questo 4 e non 5 stelle

La spedizione Amazon, perfetta come sempre, ma soprattutto ottimo prodotto, serie spassosa e divertente sia per bambini che per adulti, inoltre un'incredibile rapporto qualità/prezzo. Unica pecca, come già sottolineato da tanti, il cofanetto è scomodo perchè presenta l'apertura sul fondo e i dvd potrebbero cadere se non si presta la dovuta attenzione.
