I got this as a gift this past Christmas.
Lots of cool extras.
Video is very nice and on par with the remastered Macross,Southern Cross,Mospeada DVD releases from a few years ago. Not a big fan of the "remastered" 5.1 surround sound. Seems like they did not have access to the original material to put the sound in 5.1 so they had to make new sound effects.
Also each part of the SAGA now has Seperate Openings and Endings. I prefer the original 1985 legacy opening myself.
Good set overall. The best part is the high quality of the video compared to the ADV Robotech Legacy sets that used their videotape as a master.
My negatives would be no original sound option I prefer the unified show opening to the separate ones.
Extras are plentiful though. Including a cleaned up version of the not finished Sentinels and the Macross 3 episode pilot that was on VHS in 1984...

Just wondering if they actually cleaned up the Toy Faire video since it technically is an alternate version of the story (has the REF arriving at Tirol and engaging the Invid in combat using spliced together Southern Cross and MOSPEADA footage).

That Toy Faire video is pretty old and I think is from a BETAMAX(not sure but it looks it) so I think they did the best they could with that one. The Sentinels Pilot is actually much better looking than the one that was one the LEGACY Extras.
If I could get the LEGACY Opening with the Remastered Video but the Original MONO I would have the best ROBOTECH set..
