As someone who collects this kind of stuff and has a HUGE library (on the order of 500 titles) of WWII related DVD's I can tell you without hesitation that there is very little in the way of actual "new" footage that has not already been released somewhere by somebody at some time or other, the one notable exception to this is stuff coming out of the former Soviet Union, but it's mostly in Russian only and without English subtitles. The "new" and "previously unreleased" footage claim is a common one, and I am not trying to discourage you from acquiring the set, just want you to be aware that this is a common marketing tactic in the industry, and I have seen it repeated many, many times. At any rate, it sounds good and I'm sure you will enjoy it, I will have to look in to it myself, I need another title in my collectionIt has new footage
All the best,Just a quick update.... I checked out the Timelife site....don't waste your money, this is simply a re-packaged version of volumes IV and V that you can get for about half the price thru Amazon and elsewhere. It's really nothing new either... released in 1993 on VHS tape, then "re-released" on DVD in 2003.7 hours worth of video for only $29.95.
Ski, The Color of War is a great series, I have it in my collection somewhereI'm currently working the The Color of War myself. I haven't caught many episodes on TV, but once I saw one, I had to get the set. I got it for $30 on E-Bay. Not bad for a 7 DVD set....
It's a great buy at $30 too.. nice find. The series he's looking at is called "Century Of Warfare" and volumes IV and V are devoted to WWII. The full set can be had for $45 brand new in factory wrap from an Amazon partner, and individual disks from the series run about $5 or $6 from the same sellers, so $29 seems awfully steep for 2 disks.
