Product Description

The Irken armada is poised to conquer the universe, but it would be a lot easier without Invader Zim! Thickheaded, brash, and overzealous, Zim has wrecked Irken plans for the last time. Seizing the opportunity to rid themselves of this nuisance forever, they send Zim on a "secret" mission to a planet far away on the edge of the universe-Earth. Now Earth's only hope rests with a young UFO-hunting paranormal enthusiast named Dib.

Customer Reviews

The whole series!
As this listing is very misleading, here's the deal: This is the whole Invader Zim series, each of those 3 volumes they are selling individually for higher prices. MUCH BETTER DEAL! Buy this, and then if you want the house box, buy it separately, and you get the bonus disc and the Gir figure. You will end up paying about half the price of what they sell for all together. It pays to shop around.

Not a good value? What are you smoking?
Some people have complained that this DVD set is not a good value for the money. I would like to advise these reviewers to stop smoking crack.

My justification: this DVD set contains 27 episodes, about 23 minutes long apiece. That's over 10 hours of top-notch content for sixteen bucks (not counting commentary and special features). A typical movie is two hours for the same price, if you're lucky.

In "Invader Zim"'s case, the value comes in at pennies per laugh.

This DVD set is money all the way; it's the entire "Invader Zim" series in a single package, and it's extremely well done. The picture is great, the sound is great, and (if you're into this sort of thing) there's a wealth of commentary and extras. It's a near-perfect production. If you like "Invader Zim", you should pick up this box set forthwith; anything less would be corporal punishment.

(Plus, if you buy the "complete invasion" 3-volume set, you are getting the "uncut" Christmas episode, unlike the earlier versions of the DVDs that were sold individually, volume-by-volume.)

That said, "Invader Zim" isn't for everyone. If you've never seen it before, download an episode via Amazon or iTunes and give it a gander. It's weird, dark and terrific, with layers of details that come out with repeated viewings.

It's really hard to go wrong by buying this box set. It especially makes a great gift; at this price, you can buy box sets all around.

LETS MAKE BISCUITS!
This is no doubt the crown jewel of animation. I absolutely love this show and Nickelodeon sucks for not continuing the series. These cartoons are timeless and I can watch them over and over and they still make me laugh. Like many of Nick's toons, there are a lot of jokes that adults will find funny, and of course Gir is just hilarious and can make anyone laugh. As far as the DVD set, this is the complete set with all 6 discs of the series at a great price. You can buy the house box separately which comes with the special features disc not available on its own. It has some OK stuff but only necessary if you are a hardcore fan. This 6 disc set is really all you need, it's awesome and contains the entire series. Enjoy, filthy humans!
