Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Awesome
I do not know if you can tell how long someone has watched an item, but if you could you would know that I have been watching all of your dvd's since I knew that they where sold on Amazon. It has been about a year that I have waited trying to get the money saved up tp buy them all at once, and I am so excited to say that it was well worth the wait. The quality and condition of the videos where awesome. I would recommend anyone who wants to buy the Speed Racer tv series to do so from this seller. ... Read More

This is a great purchase as you cannot buy classic Speed Racer in the stores now in my area.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The final volume of Speed Racer episodes
This disc contains the final eight episodes of the Speed Racer anime series. These final episodes include the unmasking of Racer X and Speed's world championship race.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Speed Rules!
Another great season of Speed Racer! I remember these episodes from when I was a kid and now my kids are getting turned onto them too which is a kick for me. If you like Speed Racer then you will love this disk and it is a must have to complete the series.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Remembered fun returns
Was Speed Racer campy? Of course it was. That's what made it so fun! You could laugh every time Racer X showed up and the narrator reiterated that he was Speed's older brother, Rex, in disguise. Then there was the way they spoke almost too fast to understand. How can you not love something like that? The funniest thing is Speed was usually the one in distress and not Trixie.

This series was a lot of fun when I was a kid and is just as much fun now that I'm all grown up.
