New reactions to the Space 1999 Vol 3 and 4? (1 Viewer)

[Nelson Au]

I was wondering if there was any updated reviews or reactions to the Space 1999 Vol 3 and 4 box sets that recently came out. I saw in the archive some comments from July that they were of mixed quality. Just curious, I'll pick them up anyway. I'm not as concerned about these being that I'm a Trek fan first.

So far, there are only two online reviews of these, and they're the ones we've known about since mid-July. These sets have gone almost completely ignored by the Internet
DVD community, and there's even a paltry number of reviews at Amazon.com. Set 3 only has eight in comparison to 41 for Set 1. The first wave in January met with an admirable amount of coverage, even if it was sometimes hostile; the tepid respone to the July discs, which contain on the whole superior episodes, is a mystery.

Just for reference, here are Jeff Ulmer's reviews at digitallyOBSESSED.com:
Space: 1999 Set #3: Volumes 5&6
Space: 1999 Set #4: Volumes 7&8

They are a mixed bag. Some of the episodes do look great, while some are too dark, or have color problems. They are all watchable though. Except I was a bit annoyed by the pinkish tint in Dragon's Domain.
I pretty much agree with Scott Bosco's comments here:
