A week ago we
reported further on this month's release of
The Six Million Dollar Man - The Complete Series 40-DVD set. In that story we mainly brought you new pictures of the packaging, and video clips previewing the release. But we also had this to say about the studio's official release date: "
it's STILL November 23rd, and your order definitely shouldn't be considered late until after that time. However, it IS looking better and better for the set to possibly begin shipping a tad early, and that folks could indeed receive them before the stated date. This is probably the last time we'll talk about that here, though; if it happens, it happens and we'll all just enjoy them sooner rather than later!"
Well, we said at the time that we weren't going to post news ONLY to say that the sets are shipping. And we assure you, we're not posting just to say that. But we have indeed learned that the sets are beginning to ship early, to the people who pre-ordered this title in the USA and Canada. Since the package IS shipping early, and are starting to travel on the way to customers, we wanted to waste no time in passing along this important piece of information we just found out today! Customers will want to know this immediately, before you actually receive your collection and find out that one of the extras mentioned in the studio's
official press release last September is a no-show. Here is Time Life's statement about the matter:
Unfortunately, clearance issues prevented us from including the previously-announced blooper reel as a bonus feature of our The Six Million Dollar Man - The Complete Series release. We regret the omission, but are confident you will be more than satisfied with the unprecedented amount of bonus content (over 17 hours!) that is part of the release.
It's regrettable that this information wasn't available to us sooner; we've passed it along the same day we found out. However, the studio's statement is dead-on: there ARE still many, many wonderful goodies on this massive set, and it's difficult for us to criticize Time Life, considering all of the massive amount of work their team has putting into this release...a true dream-come-true for fans in so many ways! The bloopers having to come out of the collection is unfortunate, but we certainly have lots of other bonus items to enjoy! I know I can't wait to get my copy, and we're sure you'll feel the same.
