Speed Rules! July 15, 2008 Another great season and release from the classic Speed Racer series. A Must Have for Speed Racer fans!
The real speed racer. July 6, 2008 The other day I walked past my tv and saw my 7 year old son watching The new speed racer. I informed him that there was a speed racer before that one, the original speed racer that had no computer generated effect like the one in the movie or wild looking machine like on the next generation. I bought a few of the DVD's and he viewed them. He loved the show and can't get enough. No fancy computer generated graphics just simple plain animation. Now I have to purchase the remaining two DVD's and yes I enjoyed them also, it was a blast from the past.
GREAT BIRTHDAY PRESENT! June 16, 2008 I remember when my brother was a kid and how he'd rush home from school to see "Speed Racer". That was HIS show. He loves cars. I was happy to see the complete set (5 volumes) available and plan to give it to him on his birthday - June 30th. (He will turn 50 years young)!

When I order, the item description said "Includes Collectible Die-Cast Toy", but I didn't received this.
Exciting and Fun, more violent than previous SR volumes May 16, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I loved Speed Racer as a little Girl, and my daughter, age 6, loves the series as well. A lot of reviews have already been written about this vol., but I wanted to make a few points.
First of all, of the first 1-4 volumes, this is the most violent. Again, it's cartoon violence and doesn't seem particularly gratuitous, but I waited a full year until my daughter was 6 before letting her watch these. Older kids, I'm sure, will have no trouble with the material.
Second, one of the series is very much like a previous episode "Car Hater", but it's still a good story.
Finally, I have to say that there are more twists and turns in this one than I remember in the First Two sets of Speed Racers. One of them, "The Man in the Mask", actually left me and my daughter gasping with shock at the end!
Very exciting stories; and, I think they have a good message, too, of Right Vs. Wrong, Good Vs. Evil, etc.
Great series, and this is sure to be one that you'd like to include if you liked the previous three volumes.
