Region 4 Winners and Losers

Avatar :The Legend of Aang has been the subject of extensive releases in Region 1. In fact, all of the first two seasons have been released in volumes like this one as well as complete series collections. The Region 1 equivalent of this edition contains a short feature regarding the fighting styles on show in the series. I have read a few reviews of the extra which suggest it is better than nothing - but only just.

Therefore I would probably recommend the local release for all but the most dedicated fans of the show.

Truthfully, however, any dedicated fan should probably seek out the complete series 1 and 2 on DVD from Region 1 rather than wait for each one to be issued here. As I write only volumes 1 and 2 are available in Region 4. The slow rate of release may mean that it will be years before the whole 3 seasons reach our shores!
