Having just finished my acquisition of two more TV series (Gilligans
Island & Twilight Zone) and seeing the end of the MASH TV series now
coming into sight (with season #9 just about to come out) I am now
looking to start the acquisition process on two or three more TV series
(I do them 4 or 5 at a time depending on series size, which saves me
from losing focus on going after too many TV series to quickly)?

Which brings me to the topic at hand namely the Avengers and New
Avengers TV series (which are put out by A&E), and which from first
look to last look seems to me to be simply an overpriced MESS!

While the two seasons of the "New Avengers" look to me to be straight
up season #1 & #2 box sets (with the only objection being on my part a
high sticker price) The Blackman/Rigg/Thorson/McGee Years look to me to
be not only overpriced (by at least 40%), but as well a mess in the way
they were put out (from the first 1963 Set #1 Volume 1&2 to the last
1968 Set #5 Volume 9&10)!

So with that said can anyone out there who has them (or is in the act
of getting them) please tell me if it is as bad as it looks to me on
the outside looking in?

I mean at this point in time I am looking at maybe picking up the New
Avengers series first, and then maybe picking up the Emma Peel Mega Set
as a core to build on, and then picking up the rest of the series a set
or a volume at a time as they come onsale on Ebay in the coming months
and or years (or if I pick them up from another source) on the cheap?
