4.0 out of 5 stars A reasonable value, December 7, 2007

This review is from: Mobile Suit Gundam: 0079 Completed Collections (DVD)

You get all the episodes from the original gundam 0079 series. You get the intro ,and closing just once on each disc. Being the intro themes from the begining episode at the start ,and the last episode has the closing themes on each disk. But all the episodes are intact. The very last disk at the end it has some extras. Like some of the original marketing trailers of the show ,and the intro and the closing without credits. It has the english dub from the cartoon network done by vancouver, canada ocean group. Original Japanese audio as well with the english subtitles but the english substitles aren't done too well. Chinese subtitles are also included. I give this chinese bootleg four stars.


I got the zeta gundam complete series chinese bootleg the other day. Well all that it is missing is the 2nd half of the 7 th seventh episode after the commercial break. I felt a bit bad cause I missed the dramatic battle scene between Kamille and Lila. It just jumps to the next episode. It's the only minor issue. The rest of the other episodes are all intact. All having the intro and closings. But the intro and closing don't have the 80's j-pop original music. It has the same same new instrumental music from the bandai box set release a couple of years ago due to copyrights. The english dub is done by blue ocean group in calgary canada. There's the orginal japanese audio with english subtitles and chinese subtitles. No extras though. I give it a four. Would of been a 4 and a half if the whole 7th episode was included. But I can't ask for too much since they are cheap bootlegs. You can get these cheaper if you look on ebay. That's if you don't mind a cheap bootleg.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Mixed Bag, September 30, 2007

If you're looking for a Mobile Suit Gundam box set, this is it. Too bad it's a Chinese bootleg. If you don't speak Japanese but, for some reason, still want to watch the show in Japanese, look elsewhere, the subtitles are atrocious and the video is muddy. If you want to watch the show in English, you'll get nicer looking video, but with slightly odd transitions between episodes. Of course, there are no special features, but the case is nice.

All in all, it's a good value, if you don't mind bootlegs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great value, April 27, 2009

This review is from: Mobile Suit Gundam: 0079 Completed Collections (DVD)

First and foremost, this is a Chinese bootleg of the entire 42 episode series Mobile Suit Gundam (The episode Cucuruz Doan's Island is not included as it was never dubbed in English due a request from creator Yoshiyuki Tomino). Besides the episodes, each disc includes the intro and ending song to the show once, on the first and last episodes, respectively. The last disc has a brief Japanese TV spot for the show when it first came out that last only a few minutes.

The English dub for the show is superb, and if you are a fan of Gundam Wing English dub played on Cartoon Network several years ago, you will recognize some of the voices in this series as Ocean Group is responsible for both dubs (for example, the same actor that was Quatre in Gundam Wing is the voice of the protagonist Amuro Ray). If you enjoy watching anime with Japanese audio and English subtitles, I would seriously consider looking somewhere else. The subtitles are nothing short of atrocious. Another point to bring up is that for this particular set, it is kind of a pain that you have to go to languages and manually change the audio to English each time you pop in the disc. Another minor inconvenience is the chapters for each episode on the menu screen are entirely in Chinese, so to get to which episode you want to watch you have to hit play all and just skip to the right chapter.

All in all, if all you want is a barebones collection of all the episodes of Mobile Suit Gundam in English and do not mind bootlegs, this is the most affordable collection out there.
