Not just nostalgia. |
|
There is a reason many people credit Robotech for the current US infatuation with anime - and the Protoculture Collection presents that reason in full detail. |

Finally the final all in one Robotech collection!!!! |
This collection is a must if you are a Robotech fan, its high quality box set makes it perfect for having your dvd's ready every time, everywhere, the extras are also fantastic and give us a lot of cut scenes and what at some point was meant to be "The Sentinels".
AWESOME!!! |

Could've done without the naughty bits |
|
I'm a huge Robotech fan, but there are bits of video that were cut out of the American version to make it kid safe. I tried watching this with my kids and ran into the Japanese version clips of Minmay showering etc that brought a family show to a screeching halt. I'm really very upset about that. |

For those who grew up watching Robotech in Spanish |
*** (stars) For those who watched this show while growing up:
I grew up in the 90's watching this show in Latin America. Of course, the show was in Spanish. Good news for those that speak it, something Americancivilwar doesn't tell you is that this set contains Spanish audio 5.1 tracks for all episodes. Beware though, this is not the same dubbing that some of us came to love and cherish. Actually, the new dub kind of sucks compared to the old one, but my opinion may be biased toward the old dub. Also, the generic beginning intro for the series that we all remember has been replaced with three specific intros for each saga. That means that now there're three different intros for each saga instead of just one. Fortunately, they kept the same old song for all of them though.
I really don't understand why ADV would go through such great lengths to redub the series (redubbing has a high costs) and creating new intros for the series. When I bought the DVD I wanted to see that same old show I saw years ago.
***** (stars) For those who are new to the show or just don't care about the audio or the intro:
Well this is after all the complete series and this DVD package is loaded with extras (aprox. 450 minutes).

Better image and sound |
|
A must have if you are a Robotech fan. The quality of image and sound are excellent. You also want to get The SHadow Chronicles which is the continuation of this Robotech Saga |
