According to the University of Minnesota Duluth web site (http://www.d.umn.edu/cla/faculty/troufs/anth1604/video/Faces.html), the replacement series, Cultural Anthropology: Our Diverse World, was released on DVD in 2008. Here's the WorldCat record for the DVD; maybe you can borrow it from one of the owning libraries.
