A&E announced their Blu-ray set in July 2010, before the UK Blu-ray set was announced. Street date was originally 2 November (with 6 discs in the set); it slipped to 16 November (but now with 7 discs), slipped again (in October) to 30 November and then (in late October) to 14 December. First copies arrived at the start of December.

The set was authored by Network and is identical to the UK set apart from the packaging and some minor extras.

The Prints

The menus and contents of both the Blu-ray discs and extras DVDs are identical to the UK Blu-ray set. The Network logos are still present, but preceeded by an A&E logo.

The prints are 4:3 pillarboxed. There are 5 episodes per Blu-ray disc. The 6th and 7th discs are standard DVD discs containing the (standard definition) bonus material.

The soundtrack is in both original mono and a 5.1 remix. There is also a music only track. Most episodes have all three audio tracks, but Breakaway and Dragon's Domain have commentaries which mean one audio track is sacrificed (the music-only track).

Packaging

The standard cover image used by retailers is similar in style to the US DVDs.

Extras

The extras are almost identical to the UK set. Missing are the Horizon behind the scenes footage, the Lyons Maid ice lolly commercial and the PDFs. The Metamorph makes an unannounced appearance, and the Sylvia Anderson interview is the same length as the UK set, contrary to earlier reports.
