These are so much better than the original DVD release. Digitally remastered video and digitally remixed audio including 5.1 surround. :thumbsup:

I even get a cool Veritech Action Figure. :D

I think I am going to get the complete set.

Where can you find these? I watched the original release DVDs and they were lacking.

How is the sound? I've seen a lot of complaints that the remastered sound is terrible if you don't have a 5.1 setup.

I have 5.1 and the sound is simply amazing, considering it's a cartoon.

I have box set 2 & 3. During the battle with Breetia/Gloval against Dolza's armada, the explosions and music is just incredible. All sounds are just totally superior to the original DVDs.

The next Box set I am getting is #5.

These are $18 shipped free on www.deepdiscountdvd.com .

17 years ago when I was watching Robotech on Saturday morning I never stopped to think that somewhere there is an japanese show being misrepresented. Now i hate Robotech. Good job anime snobs.

:p

Didn't it actually splice in three different series? Macross, Mospeada, and a third one I can't think of at the moment.
