Blurbs from Entertainment Rights about “The Space Sentinels and The Freedom Force-The Complete Series”- Centuries ago, the cosmic computer entity known as Sentinel One transported three young Earthlings to his domain, granting them astonishing powers and eternal youth. Now, they protect the human race from super-villains, marauding aliens, tampering time-travelers, and vengeful deities. The trio of heroes-super strong Hercules, shape-changing Astraea, and lighting-fast Mercury-have become legends, guarding mankind as…the Space Sentinels!
Headquartered in the sand swept Valley Of Time, five legendary heroes also defend humanity, using their awesome powers to defeat magical menaces, rampaging robots, and mythological threats. Joining the familiar strongman Hercules are the magician Merlin, super-adventurer Sinbad, armored giant of the east, Super Samurai, and the beauteous Egyptian heroine known as Isis! Together, they are The Freedom Force!
The Space Sentinels started out as the Young Sentinels in 1977 about three young people that were taken out of time and sent to a otherworldly domain to help a super computer called Sentinel One to protect mankind from super villains and aliens bent on taking over the universe. I enjoyed the show when it was shown on NBC. The other series that are on this set is The Freedom Force. The Freedom Force was part of the well-liked Tarzan and the Super Seven series in 1978 on CBS. It had the most powerful heroes of all time such as Isis, Sinbad the Sailor, Merlin The Magician, Hercules and Super Samurai. It lasted only 5 episodes but was well received. This set other than having the complete series of both shows has a good amount of extras. Both shows have image galleries, scripts of all episodes of both series, interviews with the creators of the shows, original presentations and much more. A very well made set.
