    Sony Pictures Home Entertainment's e-mail newsletter "The Insider" reported that Beast Machines will be released in the United Kingdom next Monday, July 16th. Play.com provides more information on this release with their pre-orders.

    Only Season 1 (First 13 of 26 episodes) will be released at this time, in three separate releases.

    Complete Season 1
    Season 1 Part 1
    Season 1 Part 2

    These DVDs will be encoded for Region 2 and thus will only work on Region 2 DVD players or multi-region players.

    Thanks go to richardg and Boardwise for the info!

    For some reason, the cover reminds me of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy" DVD cover.

    WOW! IT took quite awhile for the UK to get that released! Anyway... the full collection looks like a Star Wars poster knock off, vol. 1 looks like the Hitchhiker's Guide (2005) dvd cover (damn i got beat out on this one!) and the vol. 2 just looks kinda shitty. I really like the American cover myself.

    Heh. Funny how they seem to be cashing in on the movie by putting an emphasis on the Transformers name and having 'beast machines' as a subtitle, as opposed to the opposite.

    Cool artwork though.

    'Bout time (although I've had the R1 release for a while now) - Hopefully more people will appreciate what the series did when they see it as a whole.

    Then again, maybe they won't...

    I got the complete series in the US last year, but it's great to finally see a release over here. Only a few years late....

    Wow...a great news!

    Isn't this year the 10th anniversary of Beast Machine? I thought we all get new figure just like the Beast Wars 10th Anniversary

    I like how it's now TRANSFORMERS: BEAST MACHINES instead of BEAST MACHINES: TRANSFORMERS.

    I'm sure that the movie's release has NOTHING to do with that...

    Not bad for the money... Wish we'd get a Beast Wars box set release here too though.

    I wonder, did Mainframe render that cover art for them? I've never seen that particular piece of artwork before.
