C.O.P.S - Volume 2 DVD Review



Synopsis: The year: 2020.  The place: Empire City. The situation: Brandon Big Boss Babel, along with his gang of crooks, is holding the entire city under the palm of his iron hand and the Empire City Police Department can do nothing to stop him. As a last resort, Mayor Davis sends CyberCOP Baldwin P. Vess (Codename: Bulletproof) to take him down.

The concept is simple: collect the very best officers that the country had to offer and begin a campaign to eradicate organized crime.  The members of C.O.P.S. are all extraordinary crimefighters -- each one a master of a special skill, each one dedicated to the cause of justice.  Though the concept may be simple, the job isn't easy: The Big Boss and his gang are the roughest and most persistent bunch of criminals to challenge law and order in Empire City.

Review: I freakin' LOVED C.O.P.S.   You remember this one with the tagline "Fighting Crime in a Future Time."  This series was released in part a few years back, which Mill Creek mirrored earlier this year, but it was never completed.  Now...finally..we get it all!  Mill Creek has done the impossible and given us the complete series of C.O.P.S. on DVD!  Thank you!  I never actually got to see all of the episodes as a kid, due to our local TV network changing the line-up, so this is extra exciting for me!  The toys were amazing..the character rocked..this futuristic crime-fighting action-drama is one of the few shows from the 1980s that still holds-up.

This DVD collection features the concluding 33 episodes from this animated series based on the popular toy line from Hasbro®.
  • The last 22 episodes (eps #43-65) have never before been available on DVD!
  • Originally aired in syndication from 1988-89, then was shown on CBS Saturday Mornings in 1993 under the title CyberCOPS.
  • The show was based on Hasbro's 1988 line of action figures called C.O.P.S 'N' Crooks.
  • Created by Kevin Alteri best known for his work on BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES.
Interest Range: Vintage Animation
