Universal Pictures - Europe

European INCREDIBLE HULK fans have more luck. Universal Pictures has been releasing Incredible Hulk videos and DVDs for the European market for more than 2 years, as part of their Universal Playback series.

Their VHS offerings include the following:

THE INCREDIBLE HULK VOLUME 1. Contains the pilot movie and "Death In The Family".

THE INCREDIBLE HULK VOLUME 2. Contains "Metamorphosis", "Blind Rage", and "Brain Child".

They've also released a 3-volume INCREDIBLE HULK boxset, which includes the following episodes on three tapes: "Final Round", "The Beast Within", "Of Guilt Models and Murder", "Terror In Times Square", "747", "The Hulk Breaks Las Vegas", "Earthquakes Happen", "Waterfront Story", and "A Child In Need",

Universal has also jumped on the DVD bandwagon, releasing three DVD volumes of INCREDIBLE HULK episodes:

THE INCREDIBLE HULK DVD VOLUME 1. Contains "A Solitary Place", "Like A Brother", and "The Haunted".

THE INCREDIBLE HULK DVD VOLUME 2. Contains "Never Give A Trucker An Even Break", "Life And Death", and "Ricky".

THE INCREDIBLE HULK DVD VOLUME 3. Contains "Rainbow's End", "The Antowuk Horror", and "Escape From Los Santos".

North American fans, please beware. A number of sellers on Ebay and other auction sites have been offering these European videos and DVDs for sale to North American customers. They are designed specifically to work on REGION 2 DVDs and PAL Video Cassette Recorders. Unless you have the capacity to play REGION 2 DVDs or PAL VHS tapes, you may spend a lot of money importing videos and DVDs that won't work on your equipment.

To find out more about these offerings, please click HERE.

The videos and DVDs above regularly get sold on auction sites such as Ebay, which often features sellers who also sell out-of-print videos such as the MCA version of the pilot or the GOODTIMES VIDEO release of "EARTHQUAKES HAPPEN". On Ebay, you may also encounter less-than-honest indivuals who sell bootleg copies of INCREDIBLE HULK episodes. While this is illegal and goes against Ebay's rules, such sellers are fairly common though their honesty and the quality of their episodes is sometimes suspect. Shop with caution.

There's also news FOX HOME VIDEO is going to release THE DEATH OF THE INCREDIBLE HULK on DVD. When information comes available, it will be posted here!
