Great item

I already saw most of the videos on VHS, but I wanted to have an all-DVD version. I'm very happy with this collection.

Roughnecks MI for you

The CGI series is a very good amalgam of the Book by Robert Heinlein and the original movie.

Quite enjoyable, but very unfortunate the TV series was dropped before the last four planned episodes were completed.

Very nice CGI overall.

Great Series!

I remeber watching this on tv. I was pretty young but it was entertaining. I recently rented them all and watched them again. It still entertained me. Thought the animation is a little dated, the series still is awesome. It was basically the truly first of its kind for tv. It also takes from the book, unlike the movie. Though there are still some things not correct (like dizz being a girl), it nails the book and fills in for you. I recomend that you read the book as well as watch this!

After the first 100 bugs it is all the same.

I hoped the Cronicles were like the book.
Well, not quite. The philosophical and political issues that are the book's backbone are absent in the series.
All that remains are nonsensical scenes of frenetic action.
Bugs, bugs and more bugs.

War in a Box

Well, I think enough has been said about the series itself, so I'll limit my review to the present Complete Campaigns set. The box is pretty nice and sturdy, with great hand-painted artwork based on the series. Also included is a collector's illustration with the episode guide on the other side.

As for the discs, the hwole series is presented in only 4 discs with slim cases, 2 campaigns a piece, and the bonus episodes on the final one. A nice production touch was to link the episodes of each campaign in one long feature, giving the sensation of been watching a full-length movie, and enhancing the continuity feel of the series.

The downside of this set is the total lack of any subtitles and additional audio tracks available in the individual sets, so non-english speakers and ear-challenged folks are warned. Well, this can also be said of a couple of campaigns in the original discs (Zephyr Campaign and Trackers, to be precise). The good things are, the photo galleries are still there, and you can get the complete series for a quarter of the price! That's something many Roughnecks fans will really appreciate (me included).

All in all, this set will give you hours of thill and fun. If you like good sci-fi, non-stop action, and bugs, this is a series you won't wanna miss.
