As far as the discs themselves, nothing new has been added and even the menus are the same as on the old set.<\/p>\n<p>The artwork is brand-new for this release and it&#8217;s very attractive. The main cast members (minus Bashir) are featured on the front of the three cases while the <em>Deep Space Nine<\/em> station itself is featured on the reverse. There is artwork inside of the cases too, along with the description of the disc contents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Verdict:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you have the set from 2003, you won&#8217;t want this set as it brings nothing new to the table, other than the compact size and the beautiful new artwork.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the price of buying all seven seasons or some other reason stopped you from buying<em> Deep Space Nine<\/em> on DVD when it was first released, then this set is definitely for you. The price is reasonable ($144.99 on <em>Amazon<\/em>) and the set is compact, taking up much less room on a shelf if you choose to keep your discs in the clamshell containers and box.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DVD Information:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Discs: forty-eight<\/p>\n<p>Runtime: @ one hundred-and-thirty-three hours and six minutes<\/p>\n<p>Release Date: February 7<\/p>\n<p>Where to buy: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Star-Trek-Deep-Space-Complete\/dp\/B01N47VPJG\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1487277784&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=dvd+deep+space+nine\/Trektoday\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Star Trek Deep Space Nine: The Complete Series DVD set is a re-release of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":45362,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2443,2663],"tags":[2654,6092],"class_list":["post-45361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-merchandise","category-star-trek-ds9","tag-dvd","tag-review"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-slider-full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-featured":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/STDS9SetReview.jpg",580,225,false]},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/merchandise\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Merchandise<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/star-trek-ds9\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek: Deep Space Nine<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: Deep Space Nine","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45361","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45361"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45361\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":45365,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45361\/revisions\/45365"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45362"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45361"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45361"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45361"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
