More FAKE Bob's Burgers DVDs! An Updated Overview - How to Spot Fakes?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- Since I was recently scammed on eBay by a seller who claimed to have legitimate DVDs of the more recent Bob's Burgers DVD releases, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do a comparison. In this video, we will be doing a follow-up to some content I published in 2018. This time, the fakes have advanced slightly - but that doesn't mean there aren't any noticeable signs that you can recognise. Comparing DVD releases of season 7, this video aims to show how to spot the difference. Have you experienced problems with fake DVDs? Let me know in the comments!

Funnily enough, those initial bootleg sets were what inspired me to create my own Simpsons Blu-rays of Season 21 onwards, slipcovers and all.
I like your creativity a lot.
Would love to see! Sounds amazing :D
I have a bootleg family guy dvd season 18 season 19 bootleg coming soon
@@dvdreviewsstudios I’m currently making S23 & S24, I’ll be sure to upload a video going over them once I’m done!
@@superfruitbowlsare you done 2 years later
My copy of Season 1 has the shiny plastic case and slightly low-ish resolution on the box art. I got it from Amazon.
I hope after the series ends some boutique label licenses the show for a Blu ray release
I own the 1st ten seasons of this show on dvd and personally I don't care if they are bootlegs
I just got into Bob's Burgers and was looking for dvd seasons in the wild. I found 3 and 4 (the only two I own as of writing this) from a used bookstore and I watched this video to make sure they were real. They are, the barcode I have on the back is the Amazon demand print one for both copies, thanks again for making this video, it's definitely informative and good to watch since I'm trying to find these dvds for my own personal collection. (And so I can watch it whenever we don't have wifi working due to snow...)
Thank you so much! Glad this video helped. :)
It’s pretty ironic that the bootlegs only look legitimate because the amazon ones are already officially licensed bootlegs, so it’s already extremely easy to replicate the packaging/discs
Hopefully olive films or shout factory would release the rest officially on dvd and maybe even rerelease earlier seasons too (I am aware that seasons two to ten were officially released through dvdr)
1:30 they did plan a UK release of Season 1 in 2011, but it sadly never came out.
I remember seeing a flyer in another Fox DVD advertising it - so weird how it never released in this country
Something odd about my season 2 dvd, which was shipped and sold by Amazon that I got a little over 2 years ago is that the bottom of the discs are actually silver instead of purple
Huh maybe they changed the manufacturing quality? Silver backs will last a hell of a lot longer than purple. Fingers crossed it's legit!
@@dvdreviewsstudios And they can actually be ripped to my computer, unlike the American Dad purple DVDs which I’m kinda mad about
So Amazon used to press real silver-back DVDs for some of its MOD titles, usually before Father's Day and Christmas. Pressed silver-back DVDs are actually cheaper per disc than burned purple-back DVD-Rs, but you have to press at least 500 at a time. So when Amazon knew it was going to be running a holiday sale and would likely sell a ton of copies in a short period of time, they would spring for the pressed silver-back discs. There are Fox, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, and Universal sets that I'm aware of Amazon pressing real sets of in this manner, and I wouldn't be surprised if there are more I'm not aware of.
I have Bob's Burgers season 2 through season 5 as official/legitimate silver-backed DVDs from Amazon US, and besides me knowing I purchased them directly from Amazon US, independent ways of verifying their legitimacy include:
- "Discs Made In Mexico" printed on the shrinkwrap
- "IFPI KK##" physically pressed into the clear plastic at the center of each DVD (a tracking mechanism that shows where discs were physically produced, KK## belonging to Technicolor Mexico, a legitimate pressing facility)
- two rings of barcodes on the bottom of each disc (each ring represents a layer, and these real discs are dual-layered, whereas the bootlegs are always single-layer as a cost-cutting measure)
- if you scan the discs in a computer DVD-ROM drive, you can verify that they are CSS encrypted, something bootleg DVDs never are
So for sets like this, you have:
- authentic burned purple-back DVDs from Amazon or Allied Vaughn
- authentic pressed dual-layer silver-back DVDs from Amazon when it produced these special batches
- bootleg pressed single-layer silver-back DVDs from who knows where
I wouldn't be surprised if there are bootleg burned purple-back DVDs too, but I think these low-quality silver-back ones are more common.
Unfortunately Amazon doesn't seem to press these special batches anymore - I think Bob's Burgers season 5 was the most recent such release of any series that I found. I tried season 6 of Bob's Burgers and later seasons of a few other shows, and I never received anything besides burned sets.
It amazes me that Fox (or now Disney I guess) won't release wide/retail DVD sets for a show as popular as Bob's Burgers, given that the bootleg eBay sales show just how much demand there is. They could easily press batches of 500 (or likely much more) and sell them directly from FoxConnect/DisneyMovieClub or through Amazon and other online retailers. I guess they just don't care anymore. Hopefully they'll eventually be open to licensing their titles out to someone who does care (Shout Factory, Kino, whoever).
Shout Factory gave Gravity Falls a DVD and Blu-ray release. I don't know how much value that show has in relation to Bob's Burgers, but there is already precedent for a licensing deal with Disney.
I wouldnt rely on amazon any more- one example is their Blade runner mini box which freezes on the same place on all of their copy. Doesnt matter which country.
The Cleveland Show even did this by series 3 and 4.
There is a chance very small but these could be made right out of the factory that the real one's are made from it's small but I've seen it before run after hours
Are you still planning on doing a complete blue ray collection as well as a pixar collection and ranking?
I was stupid enough that I fell for an ebay seller selling 13 seasons for $60 he had almost 10,000 sales and 100% feedback. I thought It was real. backs of disks aren't purple
Bought mine off ebay. The complete series. Season 1-11. Season 10 and 11 were obviously bootlegged. Damn people.
Man, it sucks people are STILL making bootlegs of this show. Chances of a proper DVD or blu-ray release are very slim now anyway. Oh well.
I do have a legitimate question in reference to differences between English spoken in various countries;
At 0:33, is it common in the UK to say "through to" when referencing a number of items between two numbers like you did instead of just saying "1 through 5" or "1 to 5"?
That's the first time I've heard anyone say that in relation to an item with multiple numberings.
Like "Harry Potter movies 2 through 6" or "Fast and Furious 1 to 4" or "From the year 1999 to 2006"
I really do like learning how people from Canada, the US, the UK, Australia, NZ, SA etc speak
Good question! Defo not been asked this before hahaha. I think my saying was just more colloquial, but correct English would be "1 to 5" in your example. :D
I think my bobs burgers bootlegs broke my ps3, my ps3 worked so hard only on these dvds
Bootleggers will almost never respond back to you if you ask them if these are legit.........and that you know how to tell... that you just want to make sure you're not getting fakes before you buy..... you'll get nothing but crickets back from them.
I would really like to get more Bob's Burgers sets but they're so damn expensive. Great and informative video though!
Although, with how low quality the real sets are, I'm almost okay getting bootlegs especially for how much cheaper they are.
Appreciate the kind words! Yeah I can see why people resort to bootlegs, especially with how difficult the originals are to purchase.
i got seanon 2 family guy dvd and the real and a, so happy
Well family guy is falling to this too with season 18 fake on dvd and season 19 on dvd too
Yeah but the thing is there’s no legit dvd for those and never will be
@@mastermariogameryt yea because of fucking Disney and their stupid app
@@mastermariogameryt not since Disney took over they don’t want to sell DVDs anymore
Please do Breaking Bad dvd
Uh oh
Nowadays any dvd are probably fake. Who even need dvd right now lol. At least.. and i mean AT LEASR Blu-Ray. Or something like 4k(or 1080p ok) x265 much better
You can keep DVD's forever stuff on streaming services can go at any time.
@@icecreamhero2375 I rip DVDs to an external HDDs and play them back through my computer to a 55" TV and 1030watt 7.1 Onkyo Theatre system. I did invest in a better GPU but you can just use a laptop ( and add a USB sound card like Creative Omni if needed ). It cost me less than $500 in GPU & Sound Card upgrades plus 2 x 4TB HDDs. I then sell or give away the DVDs but I make sure I have back ups of all my media on secondary HDDs. I can put almost 1000 DVDs onto an 8TB HDD and save so much shelf space.
Kinda Strange
