Well the set arrived in perfect condition, that was a relieve to me. When I opened it, I was less enthusiastic, a few discs had come loose, but nothing major but as I read about, the discs are stacked, 3 disc on top of each other, the plastic case is fragile but I was fortunate, nothing was damaged but immediately realized I had to check the discs as soon as possible if they weren’t damaged or scratched and if all discs where there and for instance not 2 discs of disc 6 of season 3. Another thing I immediately realized, is that I needed to put the discs in something user-friendly when I was about to start the rewatch because taking out a DVD from this set would be very annoying to say the least! So I purchased a metal box with sleeves in them where I can put in all the DVD’s for when the time comes that I am starting the rewatch! So you think you’ve purchased a slim set but to not let yourself get frustrated when you wanna watch an episode, you need to purchase something where you can store the discs in. At least that is how I feel about it. Of course I could have sent back the set and go for individual boxes but that would be more expensive and more space consuming.

The box is cheap so yeah perhaps I should not wine about it too much but still it can be quite frustrating when you need to switch the disc from below the stack to on top when want to watch episodes on the next disc. Why didn’t they use the same kind of release VEI does with their Stargate sets? Every disc in separate sleeves, bound together as one book with discs, much more user-friendly.  So this is a German set, it does have an English menu and as you can see on the pictures, the titles of the episodes are in English, printed on the discs, which is very nice. On the inside of the cover of the boxes, the titles are printed in German. The cover art of both cases are nice, strange though that only Janeway, Tuvok and Seven of Nine are on it but they look kinda nice. What I also find curious is that the last disc of the entire set, belongs to season 1, is disc 6 and has Star Trek TOS episodes on it. It does say this set comes with an bonus disc so I assume that this is the one.
