The Ultimate Star Trek Collection? Pssh

I saw today something remarkable, though its name is misleading: The Ultimate Star Trek Collection on DVD. This is a 212 DVD set of everything Star Trek except The Animated Series. A question: if it’s missing The Animated Series, is it really the Ultimate Trek set? Perhaps next year they’ll release the Über Star Trek Collection?
Anyway, this $3,908.99 MSRP DVD set contains:

  • Star Trek The Original Series: The Complete Seasons 1-3
  • Star Trek The Next Generation: The Complete Seasons 1-7
  • Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Complete Seasons 1-7
  • Star Trek Voyager: The Complete Seasons 1-7
  • Star Trek Enterprise: The Complete Seasons 1-4
  • The 10 Star Trek feature films in two-disc special editions
  • The newly restored, director’s edition of Star Trek: The Motion Picture
  • Extended 116-minute director’s edition of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan

It seems like they should leave out ‘The Motionless Picture’ (as Peter David said at the Star Trek Authors’ Cavalcade at Dragon*Con this year) in order to have Ultimate Trek, but I digress…

It seems like a reasonably good deal, since they charge ~$110 a season for boxed sets.

Thoughts?

    Without the animated series, it’s not worth the plastic it’s packged in!!
