I've been meaning to ask this for a while, ever since the Ultimate Edition came out.

I've got 4 different copies of the same film!

i) Canadian release. Bog standard cropped Pan and Scan,
ii) HK release. Bog Standard, full frame Pan and Scan.
iii) Ultimate Edition 1. Special edition version widescreen.
iv) Ultimate edition 2. The crappy version that came with the the special edition.

But I know there were at least three more versions, the PSP UMD and Reconstructed, and the otiginal 80's VHS...

How many do YOU have?

 

On hand, I have three. The two different versions that came with Sony BMG's Ultimate anniversary edition DVD, and the original US Rhino DVD release which was touted as a "Collector's Edition"

I also have, somewhere in the deep recesses of my personal storage, an old mouldy VHS version, with 5 seconds taped over. If I count that, that makes four.

 

I have the Rhino and the 2007 DVD, I also have an old copy on VHS that still works. It shares the tape with the Gobots Movie.

 

there was a GoBots movie?

 

20th Anniversary SE
Chinese Tin set... whichever that one is...

 

I own one copy on VHS, and two copies of the DVD, one regular and one anniversary addition.

 

GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords

 

2

*Anniversary Edition
*The Chinese G1 Tin Set

 

i have too many copys of the movie. 9 in total including VHS tapes

Maverick UK 1 DVD
Rhino US 1 DVD
Metrodome Reconstructed UK 1 DVD
Sony special edition US 2 DVD
Metrodome Special edition UK 2 DVD
Madman Special Edition AUS 2 DVD
Prism Budget 1 DVD
Video Gems VHS X2

so overall i have 12 different versions of the film. I love this movie so much it even was the first movie i saw in the cinema  

 

4: Original DVD copy, Chinese version, 20th anniversary and one that came with the whole DVD season collection from Asia.

 

Six

2 vhs
Rhino dvd
UK Reconstructed (which I can no longer watch, Blu-ray can't play it   )
Sony 20th Ann. DVD
UK Blu-ray (best version ever!)

 

A VHS dub from waaaaaay the hell back in the day, along with some original eps.
A more recent (early '90s) VHS dub of better quality.
That there Canadian release from a while back.
The Rhino VHS.
20th Anniv. DVD.

Obtained in that order..as each was superior to the previous one at the time. I skipped the barebones DVD release b/c I figured the official VHS would tide me over until the inevitable bells and whistles DVD.

 

At the moment I only have the Ultimate Edition, however, in the past I've had the Rhino DVD and the Chinese edition that came with my G1 episodes.

Anytime I get a new copy of the movie I give the old one to a friend who's curious as to why I like TF's.

 

I've got the Rhino and the Sony ones.

 

I have 3 copies, 2 from America and one of from the UK

 

2

The older "Collector's Edition" DVD
20th Anniversary DVD

 

VHS re-release from a few years back
Same version on UK DVD
Reconstructed version on UK DVD (which I love)

So, 3...

 

Not sure, but quite a few.

There's the original one I taped off Sky Movies when they first showed it, but I think that tape's beyond useless now.
I was gutted about that, as I then didn't have a copy for years until I picked up a copy on VHS from Transforce 2000.
Then I later found them on sale in a local shop for a couple of quid each, and to prevent my previous tragedy (after several years without the movie, I wasn't going to risk going through that again!), I think I picked up three copies there (actually four, but I then gave one to a mate).
A couple of years later, they brought out the Sony one with the Headmasters episode on it, so I got that.
'Course, not long after that I got a PS2, and found the Sony version on DVD, so I picked that up - but it went missing, so I replaced it. Then the original one turned up again.
So that's five on VHS (to my recollection), plus the trashed one, and two DVD copies, both the same.

 

I've got 3 - original 1980s VHS release, original 2001 DVD release (the one with the Headmasters ep) and UK Ultimate Edition in collector's tin.
