Description:

According to A.D. Vision, "a fresh, clean digital transfer of Robotech from the original film stock" returns the cult favorite to "a lovely and near-pristine state." The new release looks darker than the previous DVD, especially the colors at the blue end of the spectrum. But the original elements have faded badly, and correcting the problems would have required enormous amounts of time and money. The faces of Lisa and the other female characters remain pallid, pink and white masks; the shading around Rick Hunter's eyes makes him look like a raccoon in some shots. The added footage "cut from the original broadcast version" amounts to little more than different commercial lead-ins and an occasional brief image like the one of Rick and Roy Fokker in biplanes in "Booby Trap." (Rated 13 and older, but suitable for ages 8 and older: violence, restricted to spaceship and robot battles) --Charles Solomon
