I always enjoyed Transformers as a kid, and seeing this new re-release on the shop shelf brought back some good memories. The story is about a civil war which has gone on for millions of years between two factions of a robotic race - the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons. This special collectors edition is just a remastered edition in a new black box - which makes it the only main difference to the original video release. However, the video includes an episode of "Transformers Takara". "The Four Soldiers from the Sky" is an episode from the Japanese version of Transformers, so it's dubbed into English (which can make for a bit of a shoddy translation sometimes - but still understandable).
The episode makes a nice addition to the tape - making it a must for fans of the series (especially the older series). Just as a note, the film itself features the voices of Leonard Nimoy, Eric Idol and Orson Welles.
i managed to get this for 9.99, which wasn't too bad.
