Review:  We were familiar with Centurions through the 1980s toyline, but the  cartoon never aired in our area...at least not that I ever noticed, so I  was excited to check out this miniseries.  The show went on to have two  seasons, a total of 65 episodes, and hopefully we'll see the Warner  Archive release this full series eventually.  I was overjoyed to be  introduced to Max, Jake and Ace and their great mech suits.  The show is  well-written and has great animation and a tone that is ideal  mid-1980s.  The video looks fantastic, great quality, and the sound is  good.  This one is a must-have for any Centurions fan and it can only be  found at wbshop.com!
