I found this one on Amazon, but it's imported from China with only Chinese subtitles. Any good?
I noticed that, like Thundercats, the seasons seem to be broken up into parts, thus making a single season cost more than they're honestly worth imo. This is the first one I've seen with a complete season intact.
AND, this box set even includes THE MOVIE in the set, with 98 episodes.

I've got a question that some might ask, it mentions in the description. But is it really region-free? Meaning it might be a Region 3 box set(asian) and work on a region 1 DVD player(U.S.)?

I heard some CAG here that said they have that set and that it is a legit, region free set.
I've been thinking about getting it but I'm still waiting on the supposed Sony release.

They're Region 0 meaning they're bootlegs.
Granted they're really well-done bootlegs, but bootlegs nonetheless.
I think some sets include reproduced cel-images from stills of the movie and I think a few sets included a pewter faction necklace of the Autobots/Decepticons.

They are probably bootlegs but being region 0 does not make it a bootleg, a lot of smaller dvd companies don't region encode their releases (Troma for example) does that make all of their releases bootlegs.

Fine by me as long as I'm not paying $75 for just a used copy of Season 3 part 1. I'd rather paying below $100 for bootlegs than pay $75 each for legit versions.

See, this is what has kept me from buying more box sets, is the fact that they break up seasons into parts, then assrape you for each part of the season. I looked into buying La Femme Nikita and they want OVER $100 for just part of Season 1, I think.
