This incredibly popular extension of the venerable GUNDAM series has spawned a rabid following all over the globe. The series begins as the space colonies have grown tired of the oppressive rule by the Earth government, a corrupt organization ruled by people who have no real interest in the colonists or their well-being. Their rule is unjust and unfair, but not unopposed. Resistance forces in the colonies have created five special Mobile Suits (robot-like vehicles) called Gundams. Five young pilots have been selected to sneak these Gundams down to Earth and begin a guerilla campaign that will end the Earth government's rule forever. Of course, there is also romance, albeit a rather strange one. A young woman, Relena, sees one of the Gundam pilot's, Heero, faces, which is enough for him to threaten her life. However, a relationship forms between the two that causes problems for both of them. Contains the entire series in a collector's box set.
