(There never were single releases of volumes 2 and 3, volume 2 was cancelled and replaced with volume 2&3. Contender did this sort of thing a lot, for example with Digimon the releases are disc 1, disc 2, discs 1-3 and discs 3-4.)

Contender Entertainment Group released one boxed set for Chronicles during 2005. The set contains three volumes within a cardboard sleeve, but does not contain the entire series since it does not include volume 4. Contender also released four individual volumes in two different versions. It is possible to buy volume 2 as a "Special Bumper Volume" (which contains volume 3 as a bonus within the same case), or to buy volume 2 and 3 as separate volumes. The discs are the same, regardless if they are purchased in the boxed set or as individual volumes in either format. Volume 4 is marketed as a "Bumper Edition" and can only be purchased as an individual volume. It is not included in the boxed set.

The boxed set contains discs one through three. Its catalogue number is CTD10356. It contains the first 15 episodes of Chronicles as presented and ordered in the English version of the series, though merges the three parts of [[The Legend of Thunder!]] into one uninterrupted "feature length episode." There is a typo on disc three that spells "Aerodactyl" as "Aerodcactyl."
