Our comments
While fans had long wished for a release of the earliest episodes, the thunder was slightly stolen by Fernsehjuwlen launching their multilingual release of the first sixty episodes in Germany a matter of weeks before. However this six disc set of the first 56 episodes are in their complete and original Australian broadcast form. Originally shown from March to June 1985 on the Seven Network.
