I was wondering if anyone could tell me if getting the "perfect collection" is worth it? In buying a perfect collection would I be missing out on anything that I might have seen on the seperate DVDs?

Mainly in the Perfect Collection you will get every extra supposed to a smaller one where you will get much fewer extras.

episodes are the same and shit.

might be more someone else can say.

Maybe when someone mentions the name of the series, we can be a little more helpful.

Er...sorry about that. I should have been more clear.
Im looking at the Bubblegum Crisis series and noticed a "perfect collection".
I've seen these collections for other series so I was wondering what the deal with them was and I assumed it was a industry wide "set" of rules when it comes to them.
So a "perfect collection" of a series dosent mean anything but "all the episodes"? I was worried Id get a edited version or be missing out on so of the extras that came with the seperate DVDs.
Thanks for the replys.

I was thinking maybe Cowboy Bebop, in which case the 3 disk set you see on eBay called the "Perfect Collection" is bootlegged, unless it's on 6 disks and costs several hundred dollars.

I don't know about Bubblegum Crisis... did AnimEigo ever sell that on individual DVDs? AnimEigo, a "poor" company, is usually fairly skimpy on the extras (I don't mind, as long as the price of the disks is low), so I wouldn't worry.

In the case of Bubblegum Crisis, that's just what they call the box sets. So it's just all the single DVDs in one set.

The Perfect Collection has everything from what I know of and if you are going to get it, go to www.half.com. I have been getting my anime from there, its really about 1/3 cheaper. With things tlike the PErfect Collection, makes a huge difference.

The Bubblegum Crisis 2040 Perfect collection is done by ADV, and is a 6 disc boxset-like thing. Its a lot cheaper than buying the individual dvd's or whatever.

I can confer this, there is no 3 disk Cowboy Beboy "Perfect Collection", however you should be aware that you might see the 2 disk Best Sessions remakes mislabeled as a "Perfect Collection"

... which, of course, is only a selection of episodes, and not all 26...

... so if you see a 2-disc 26-episode set labeled "Best Sessions" then you know it's not legit...
