Thought this was a pretty good price for the Voyager full box set. Been on the lookout for this at a decent price for a little while, this is the cheapest I've seen it.

Pretty good price! Voted hot. On Netflix too, for those who don't want a physical copy

I know I'm in a minority, but this is my favourite Star Trek. Especially series 3, 4 and 5. Great price for a LOT of TV!

The problem for many was the show at that point just became Star Trek: Seven of Nine. I thought it was decent anyway. Probably still be better than the new series

Mine to matey. A lot of the negativity resulted from the female lead sadly, quite a few refused to give it any time.

Loved it. Had it all on DVD and sold them. Nice if the blu ray was this price.

I think I read something about it not being possible due to the medium it was filmed on. I'm gutted. Maybe they'll find a way.

Voyager (and DS9) could be made into blu-ray. ToS was far easier and cheaper to do because the effects were contained on a 35mm print of the episodes. TNG wasn't, the effects were made in a video editor later at a lower resolution, which is why they had to go through and do all the effects again (in some cases had to recreate completely in CGI because they were lost or broken) and THEN make a 35mm print they could send to blurays.
This was TNG. The "flagship" recent series and the sales were NOT good, they didn't make anywhere near what they wanted and it was considered a bit of a flop financially speaking. DS9 and Voyager are lesser known and in their eyes would never sell as many copies as TNG but would still require the same amount of work (and in some cases *MORE WORK* due to the fact that they can't go back to the 35mm model film and would have to re-create a lot of the SD CGI ships into a HD (if they even have them all still) to re-create everything into a HD format.
So... it's just never going to happen.

It's a shame some shows will never make the leap to higher resolutions. What I wouldn't give for Babylon 5 on blu ray!
Still, heat added for this, I always liked Voyager, it may even be my favorite variant of the Star Trek shows. I never did understand the hate it got, as much as I also like DS9 and TNG.

Leave out all the Chakotay episodes and it's a damn good show!

The series certainly gets a bad rep. Been watching the repeats on Horror channel and I forgot just how good it was. Every episode in season 4 has been exceptional so far.

The real kicker is the work they did on TNG looks stunning

Ours has just arrived , as others have mentioned this isn't coming to blu ray, so this is the next best thing. Very pleased with this box set at this price.

This garbage was a forerunner of the even worse SJW/PC garbage that is responsible for Rodenberry spinning in his grave with "Discovery" role reversal crap with a crossdresser on the crew. This was atrocious, bad aliens bad make up doing the aliens, crap stories, and they did so bad they had to bring in a shapely, busty female "borg" to save the show flopping without trace. But if you thought this was feminazi idiocy at its's worst......wait til you see Discovery

Fairly sure he wouldn't be spinning considering he felt that clothing wouldn't be classed as a single sex thing in the future, as was shown by both male and female crew members wearing 'skants' (skirt / pants) in the Next Generation - along with stories that do away with sexual orientation and characters that were androgynous. He also had plans to introduce gay characters around season 5, but died shortly afterwards and it was never added.
