Does anyone own both the Volume 1 and 2 box sets and the "Complete 65 episodes" box set? Is there any difference? I notice that the 65 Episodes box set fits all the episodes onto 5 disks, yet the Vol. 1 & 2 box sets uses 10 disks. Is there a loss of quality in the 65 Episodes box set? Any special features missing from that one that the Volumes set has?
shareThe 65 box set has 5 discs, but they are double sided, so in effect it is 10.
The bonus material is 2 bonus interviews and 4 commentary tracks. One commentary track ("The Singing Sword") doesn't work on mine - just static. Not sure if this is true about all copies)
The Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 sets both have 4 double sides discs however, so in effect you get 18 discs. I don't own the Complete 65 Episode box so I do not know if there's a difference in quality.
The Special Features are:
Vol. 1:
-Interviews with the series creator/producer David J. Corbett, writer Brooks Wachtel, and comic strip historian Rick Norwood
-2 Episode Commentaries
-Storyboard Gallery
-Slideshow of character paintings and background design
-Selection of scripts in PDF format
Vol. 2:
-Interviews with voice artist Noelle North, and series writers Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens
-2 Epsiode Commentaries
-Storyboard Galleries
-Image Galleries
-Selection of scripts in PDF format
-Ink & Paint Trailers
-Bonus Episode: "Defenders of the Earth" Ep. 26 guest-starring Prince Valiant.
The 65 disc only has what I mentioned, so this is what's extra on the seperate versions:
-Storyboard Gallery
-Slideshow of character paintings and background design
-Selection of scripts in PDF format
-Storyboard Galleries
-Image Galleries
-Selection of scripts in PDF format
-Ink & Paint Trailers
-Bonus Episode: "Defenders of the Earth" Ep. 26 guest-starring Prince Valiant.
Btw, 4 times 4 is 16, not 18 ;)
10 discs, of which 8 are double sided, so 8 times 2 + 2 = 18.
