Not bad. But my design for the set is still the near enough the ideal type of design boxset we were looking for. Well maybe the region 2 version that comes to the uk might something like the original. Or a completety different design altogether. Who knows!

How would use KR fans feel if the R1 and R2 sets were designed differently. Would we buy both sets? Cus the design of the set should of been designed in the original style of KR.

As there are too many people trying to modernise everything these days. If the old way was the best stick with it. Cus we all like the desert scene and the music. So going down a diffferent road is not the way to go. Cus if the new way back fires. With likes of the studios putting of complete season sets into the retails stores. And if something fails that they had a hand in. They will just blame the sales or anybody or anything but take respondsibility for their own failing to listen to the people who are buying they goods. As they clearly messed up with the PLAYBACK releases. As they saying goes "...they are their own worst enemy...".

I think UK fans might get confused cos i noticed that it says KR2000 was the movie sequel...well, at least over here, if anyone has the original retail release of Knight of the Juggernaut, they will notice it says 'Knight Rider 2' on the box cover.

But whatever, it doesn't affect anything at all.

Why have Universal used original promotional photographs, that obviously show Hasselhoff's different hair-cut in Season 4 - the shot with him and Pamela Susan Shoop, from the 4th Season two-hour premiere episode "Knight of the Juggernaunt" on screenshot 3, and a shot of Hasselhoff holding a gun - is this from "Knight Sting" of the 4th Season as well, in screenshot 4?

Did Uni. really think that us fans would mistake the Hasselhoff/Shoop photo for a one that might of been taken during the "Pilot" episode, which also guest-starred Pamela Susan Shoop?

Besides these mistakes though, the packaging is THE best for any television DVD set, and even competes higher than the "24" sets that FOX have made. Fingers crossed, Universal does just a good a job with the future "Airwolf", "The Equalizer" and "Miami Vice" packaging.

Wow! Just noticed this dvd set is going to be released. But I do have a problem though ... I'm from Belgium and I noticed that this set is region one only. Is this set going to be released for region two also? I really really do hope so, if not, I'm going to buy a region free dvd player :lol:

Hmmm... I tried searching for the region 2 dvd at amazon.co.uk but I can't find it. I don't think its available yet.. I'm sure they will release region 2 soon. Only region 1 is available as of now.. I suggest u get urself a region free dvd player if u really can't wait for region 2 :)

Thanks for your response. Just read in a comment from DVD driver that it's set to be released in November or so.
Guess I'll just have to wait a few months .... Man, this is very exciting news. Just when you thought they would never release all the seasons on dvd .... Great! Congrats to the people of Universal!!

Once I get my first check - now that I am working - I am buying it on dvd even If I don't get a dvd player then. Then set is more important. Not only that but I may have a gf soon and will want to treat her out as often as Ican. :)
