| There is information at the Big Finish about the Davros DVD boxset http://www.bigfinish.com/davros---dvd-boxset-532-p.asp It includes a new audio The Davros Mission that is exclusive to this DVD Boxset. It includes the other Big Finish Davros audio. The DVDs are just in PAL. There appears to be no information about an NTSC version yet. I hope that the exclusive audio will not be exclusive for too long. A boxset like this is nice if you don't have the material, but if you have a decent percentage of it, then it is just duplication. Having an exclusive audio story is quite annoying especially for those who can't use the DVDs in PAL format.

This fantastic 8-disc box set includes all the stories involving one of the best recurring villains in Doctor Who history - Davros, creator of the Daleks.

In Resurrection of the Daleks (1984) starring Peter Davison, duplicate Daleks terrorize docklands London. In Revelation of the Daleks (1985) starring Colin Baker, the Great Healer offers a solution for famine, but it involves dead bodies and Daleks.

| | I think it is better this way -- there was no reason/need for the boxed set. I still think the idea of doing them after the fact with all kinds of exclusive extras is a rather terrible way to treat loyal buyers of the DVDs. I can understand doing boxed sets, but at least allow those who don't need all the DVDS to order the extras as a side (like the Avengers set did in the US when they re-released them with a new DVD). |
