Cool review man, I'm not going to lie the blu ray sets are looking impressive but I dont like the fact that the blu ray sets dont have bruce faulconers soundtrack, because of that I am going to stick with my orange bricks. Also whats the song in your intro man?

FUNimation isn't advertising this hard enough to let their 'Bruce Faulconer' fans know that this has the soundtrack they want.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:
- Kai 2.0 on Blu-ray

I think it's just because FUNi would rather just ignore the Faulconer track if they could, considering how they haven't got the uhh.. greatest relationship..

I've been gone the past 2 months, can anyone tell me if these sets are still selling like hotcakes, and or if the quality of the sets have improved from Seasons 1 and 2?

Well Season 6 (pre-order) is currently the 2nd best selling anime on Amazon if that answers your first question. (With most of the other sets within the top 10).
Secondly, yup these sets are still truly amazing

You're ditching 69 episodes for 92 episodes. Not to correct, but I think you're referring to total price point, not episode count.

I'm not talking about the price. I'm talking about how toei still left a lot of filler to make it 69 episodes. So there will be no point of me buying it if its just only going to remove a little filler from the show.

I'm really glad that this guy is throwing out direct comparisons to the Orange Bricks. I feel like not enough people who have the Orange Bricks already want to upgrade because they don't really think there'd be a huge difference.

But he's not. His Blu-ray images look wrong, and his "Orange Brick" screenshots look like they were taken from those crappy "4k" videos on YouTube. No way was the Season Four DVD that bright.

Let me know how it is buddy.
I still haven't got around to ordering part 4 yet haha I'm working on it though lol
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

Will do, Haha!! Don't blame you, considering all the different versions you own.
I've never owned Z before so these are all day one for me. Can't wait till all 9 are out!

Wow! September is gonna be a killing, summer movies come out on BD, also TV shows too now I have Fairy Tail & DBZ to add to that list.
AoT isn't doing it for me. Haven't gotten past episode 6. That anime has been way to overhyped!

They seem pretty consistent with what I've seen. That, and he did say he was directly comparing the releases that he owns. Of course, there's some variation depending on what monitor, phone, or TV I'm using to view them.

They're poorly compressed and in the wrong aspect ratio so they're pretty poor for comparison regardless of viewing device.

Don't get me wrong I like it, interesting concept. But there was so much hype around it that while watching thr first 6 episodes I was expecting something truly amazing to happen and why it's hyped as it is and honestly I felt let down. Potatoe Girl is the only character I like they rest I couldn't care less about especially Eren.
It's taken me 6 episodes to tolerate Eren wheras as I warmed up to say Goku & Bulma from the start.

Sounds to me like you prefer shallower, comedic characters to the more brooding, layered ones. Considering how dark Attack on Titan's cast is, I guess it makes sense that you wouldn't enjoy it.
