Last year saw the release of Babylon 5: The Complete Series on Blu-ray, just in time to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the franchise. If you missed out on it, you can grab the entire sci-fi epic now at Amazon for only $71, saving almost 50% when compared to its original list price of $135. This is the lowest price we’ve seen for the box set, so check it out while you can.
Babylon 5: The Complete Series
This Blu-ray collection features all 110 episodes of the series, as well as the 1993 feature-length pilot, Babylon 5: The Gathering. If you’re looking to complete the collection, you can also pick up last year’s CG-animated feature film, Babylon 5: The Road Home, for $18 at Amazon.
What makes this version of Babylon 5 notable compared to other releases over the years is that it’s the first time the show has ever been remastered in high definition, giving fans a sharper look at J. Michael Straczynski’s groundbreaking show. Released during the golden age of ’90s sci-fi, Babylon 5’s use of CG technology to craft its space station and interstellar dogfights put Star Trek to shame, as its rival still relied heavily on practical effects and models.
