In 1967, "Speed Racer" made its debut, igniting the first Japanese anime cartoon to ever succeed in the United States.Originally titled "Mach GoGoGo", the English-dubbed series "Speed Racer" soon became an instant classic. Four generations later, it continues to inpact American naime and rev up the hearts and imagination of over 45 million fans as one of the most beloved animated series of all time. "Spped Racer" fans can now enjoy the incredible "Speed Racer: The Complete Classic Collection" and be thrilled as Spped, the intrepid young race care driver, races for the flag, chases notorious villains, and pursues fast-action adventires. Join the full-throttle excitement with an unforgettable supporting cast; including Pops Racer, Trixie, Spritle, Chim Chim, and the mysterious Racer X. This remarkable 6-disc DVD set includes all 52 classic episodes together in a DVD release for the very first time. Plus, a bonus disc with additional features that include "The History Of Speed Racer" featurette, a bonus episode of the series entitled "The Next Generation" and and "The Making Of Speed Racer: The Next Generation". All of this comes housed in a very special deluxe packaging, in a container that resembles the outer framework of the Mach 5; without a doubt, the most unique and original DVD packaging that has ever been created for any television series/DVD release. What a thrill it is to finally be able to have this timeless program finally available. And, with the 2008 movie version a hit film, it is nice to see how the legend of Speed Racer all started. Fun for Mach 5 fans of all ages!Read full review
Quality of picture is better than the DVD transfer. There's nothing too fancy with the packaging or extras but it's the best Speed Racer I could find and it's "groovy."

The story lines are remarkable and creative through all 52 original 60's episodes! Well written for all ages. Includes action without excessive violence, shows good vs. evil (good wins), character family holds up well and is mutually supportive, can not tell that dialogue is a translation from Japanese to English. The animation is on par with all from its day but looks a little rough from the eyes of year 2009 and modern computer graphics. American cast's voice over is fantastic even at today's standards. The Speed Racer original series is an unsung hero among the classics!
Looks great places well thank you
