Beast Machines question

[My Alt. Mode Sucks]

I've never seen the show, but I'm curious about it. Is the only way to view it really to buy the bootleg DVDs from eBay right now?

[Alpha_&_Omega]

as far as i know, but there maybe other alternatives

[Drewbie]

you could always buy bootleg VCDs off ebay ;)

 

I think they put out about 5 episodes on VHS/DVD when the show was actually airing.

I saw some auctions on eBay just now...I wish someone'd do an official release of BOTH seasons in one set.

man, i never got to see more of this than the first three eps. I loved the toys and I want to see the series play itself out!

I found bittorrent files for both seasons but they were IMO really low quality and hardly watchable at all.

 

Personally I did not really like BM that much -- neither show nor toys (at least compared to BW) -- though I did end up getting most of the toys.

They had 3 episodes per disc, and played much better on my computer than TV.  Though the screen was small, it was as grainy as compared to the TV.

To directly answer your question:

 

There are no official releases of the full Beast Machines series. You may occasionally see one of the following pop up on eBay, however:

 

A five-episode DVD that was produced in Canada

 

A two-episode promotional video that contains eps 1 and 2

 

Another two-episode promo video that contains two season 2 episodes

 

Other than that, it's all bootleg. I'm sure that MPEGs of these episodes are available on P2P networks like Kazaa, though downloading those would be illegal.

What's the video quality of the not-so-legit DVDs from eBay like? I know it can vary, but are there any of decent quality?

All I know is that they're not worth $50. :roll I can't believe people sometimes.
