I have been all over firefly and buffy... and i'm a huge fan of Joss...But I am also an avid dvd collector.

Will Angel ever be released as a complete series box set like buffy was? I'd rather buy that than buy each season separately... it just feels more complete... and I imagine the cost would be less....

any thoughts?

Your last few words - the cost would be less - is a sure bet, imo, that the answer to your question is nope. There are 5 seasons w/ 22(?) eps per season? Do the math, and it adds up to 5 seperate box sets.

well... they already released a region 2 complete box set... i think the better question to ask is why not release a region 1 for the US??

There is an Angel complete set. I just bought it off of eBay. Also saw it at BJ's Wholesale Club. Off of eBay (including shipping) it ran about $80 USD; at BJ's it was $125 USD (not including tax).

depends on which regions your after, i think 1 and 2 already have boxes. i've been waiting for the region 4 one and i just saw yesterday it's available on ezydvd.com.au after april. i'm soooo happy!!!!! not as cheap as the buffy one was per season, but still cheaper than buying them seperately, not by much though.

I have been looking for quite awhile myself. The best thing I have found so far is from Costco (a warehouse-store like Sam's Club, if you aren't familiar). Membership to Costco is $45 per year, but they have great deals on lots of quality merchandise, so it's well worth it. Anyway, back to the point. I purchased the "Complete Series" of Angel there for $124.99, which is an outstanding deal. You could pay for membership AND buy this set for LESS than getting all 5 seasons from Amazon. The downside is that this box only contains the individual season sets, no collector's box like we are all looking for. Hope this helps!

The Angel set was Limited Edition; it had its own number. You can't buy it pristine anymore. There was a similar set for Buffy a month after season 7 first came out on DVD. At the end of last October they brought the Angel set that was of the same format out, and on the same day brought a mass-produced Complete Buffy set.

Going by this I'm purely speculating that a mass-produced Angel set will be out October/November this year.

Oh, and these are all Region 2. The mass produced region 1 Buffy set came out 2 weeks after the Region 2 release, and it neither series saw a Limited Edition release. So I'm still guessing October/November if ever for you guys too.
