Thanks to an Amazon listing, we have confirmation that Robots In Disguise (2015 version) will be making it’s way onto DVD this October! That’s the good news, the bad news is this DVD, titled A New Autobot Mission, looks to only include a few episodes rather than the full season (much like the DVD releases for the Rescue Bots). With a run time of 110 minutes, we are likely getting the first five episodes with no word on any bonus material included.
This DVD will be released by Shout Factory, who has uploaded a Youtube trailer for the release as well (see the video after the jump).
Who’s going to be getting this DVD?

And this is the reason why I downloaded the series. No need for waiting every two years for the series to come out on DVD just to see 7 episodes plus the "bonus specials only avalible on DVD!!!" crap.

We're only just getting transformers prime box sets on region 2 in the UK, so this doesn't surprise me. Still waiting for beast wars to get a UK DVD release!

i hate when they do this….They aren't getting any $$ from me until there's season sets. They waste so much time releasing these smaller DVD sets when they should be looking to release other things like RID (2001), Beast Wars Neo, Beast Wars 2, etc.
And yes i know they make more money by taking 1 show, doing the season/complete sets, and also doing 4-5 seperate releases that are 4-5 "themed" episodes. But i don't have to like it!

I believe they will do it like Prime, first they did Darkness Rising then the complete season, fingers crossed.

They need to release the whole season. I really don't want to piece meal the entire series.

Anyone noticed the trailer was mostly the same, just with half of the bumpers being new?
"It costs us to make DVD ads guys".

Well I have faith, They released Darkness Rising first then the compete season for Prime.

At least I have the entire first season downloaded, but it still sucks that it's looking to be Rescue Bots all over again.
