BSG: Complete Series Blu-ray set official specs: 20 discs, BD-Live, July 28
Finally, Universal has confirmed the rumors that Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series will arrive on Blu-ray July 28, packing the previously noted $349 MSRP for the 20 disc set. There's plenty of exclusive Blu-ray features planned, with U-control, DTS-HD MA soundtrack, an interactive guide to the ships and characters from the series, a BD-Live powered "Ultimate Battle" game, look behind the scenes with composer Bear McCreary and more. Not mentioned? Whether or not all that cash can buy a slightly better case design this time around.[Via TheHDRoom]

Amazon has it for $244.99 preorder ..

That's kind of reasonable in hollywood's world of pricing. Each Star Trek series on DVD was in Canada originally about $109.99 when they first came out. Even the TOS seasons. Battlestar Galatica has 4 seasons, so 4x109.99 = $430.00 basically. So perhaps using that pricing range, $349.99 sounds not too bad. Although, most star trek episodes had 23 episodes where as Battlestar Galatica was more like 13 episodes per season. So really, I think charging the amazon pre-order price of $244.99 is about right comparatively.
Mind you, I still think $244.99 is alot of money and would find myself hard pressed between buying this tv series I have already watched in full over purchasing 10+ new blu-ray discs of movies I haven't seen before.

Especially insane, considering it's not really the complete series. "The Plan" is not included.
Dan @ Apr 23rd 2009 1:30AM
Very true. Why not just wait till The Plan airs so it can be the "complete" series. I didn't buy any of the seasons, only Razor. So now I can get this huge awesome box set and I'll have to get The Plan later. That doesn't make sense. I would say "complete" fail.

Nice to see the effort for Blu, but still waiting on a Blu version of Caprica!

BSG was a great show, until season 4. They really dropped the ball, although the final 10 episodes were a little better.

i just finished watching BSG the new series...and for the most part i LOVED it. of course...the series seemed to have its writing ups and downs, just like just about any sci-fi show does (lost...and ESPECIALLY heroes, heroes got so bad i just stopped watching it entirely) but overall it was great. and literally the last 2 minutes of the season finale made it all worth while. Probably gonna watch the old series on hulu now.
