    Not sure and could not find anyone posting this, so I thought I would

    Vimeo is offering the complete G1 US release of Transformers for $40!

    Most of us will have it but might be something to look up:

    Hopefully it will make its way back to Netflix as well.

    Options are never a bad thing, though!

    Would be nice for ITunes to have a deal like this. Kinda lame that they don't have season 2, 3 or 4. Not even the movie.

    Good deal. Too bad the animated film is not included.

    Fingers crossed it comes to digital formats next year for the thirtieth anniversary. Oh jeez, I feel old thinking about that now.

    Has anyone gotten video like this from Video before? How's the quality? Anybody know the format?

    And how is the content? The butchered Rhino version or the other one?

    We need format, resolution quality, and whether or not this is the Shout! Factory run or the Rhino video run.

    I love Vimeo for personal distribution. I'm not quite ready to buy streaming content from them. They don't quite have the infrastructure of iTunes and Vudu right now. This is the first I heard of them selling content outside of indie films.

    Yep. Hopefully we can get somebody willing to stake $3 on an episode download to confirm.

    Well, the trailer is freely available. Does this offer any insights on the quality / type of the episodes?

    What would be the easiest way to determine which version this is? It's only 99 cents to rent an episode, but which one would be the most telling?

    The trailer is defaulting to 500x281, so it's likely not the final quality of the downloadable files. When embedding the trailer, you can bump it up however much you want, but the quality gets pretty fuzzy past 500x281.

    I keep seeing people saying good deal, but weren't these previously available for free (or included with Netflix) to stream?
