"It is somewhat a gamble when one buys the economical DVDs of Alpha. Some are good and some are bad. But this "Radar Men" from Alpha is simply astonsihing. Alpha seems to have obtained a well-preserved, almost mint copy of the serials. Though, some cleaning up was done, for example, the string pulling the flying dummy so obvious in the film version is not much in evidence here. This serial is one of the last GREAT hurrahs of the genre in the late 40's and early 50's. It was also interesting to see Clayton Moore as a villain, quite handsome really and very much unlike a serial baddie. But that Lone Ranger voice coming from an unmasked man really throws off a dyed in the blue LR fan to the point of being "uncomfortable". This is one Alpha product that is top notch. It is all regions too so all can enjoy!"

Finally serials are coming on DVD

"While this is a good serial overall, beware that this DVD is only chapters 1-6 and you will have to buy another DVD with chapters 7-12. For some reason, Amazon indicates this for most of the other serials but neglects to mention it for Radar Men from the Moon. My problem is once I realized I had to buy the another DVD, the DVD was out of stock at Amazon and I had to wait a while for it to come in."

Amazing quality; why pay more

"I was a little wary of buying this serial because several years back I had purchased a Will Rogers feature on VHS from Alpha and the quality stunk. However, the quality of the transfer on this two dvd set is simply stunning. The film is very clean with few if any dirt, lines or splices. Good rich contrast and a nice sharp image. Colorful box design, too. Good job, Alpha!"

Chapters 1-6...

"Beware! The evil Retik is readying his lunar army for a full-out invasion of earth! Through his use of "lunarium" in his atomic bombs and rayguns, he seeks to wipe us out, so his radar men can inhabit our planet! Thankfully, Commando Cody (George Wallace) stands in the breach, ready to defend us with his special helmet and jet-pack! Watch as Retik's henchmen here on earth (including an unmasked Clayton "The Lone Ranger" Moore) attempt to soften our defenses by blowing up troop trains! See Commando Cody and his team fly to the moon to battle Retik on his home turf! Packed with explosions, fist fights, gun fights, car chases, train wrecks, plane wrecks, and general mayhem! RMFTM is a definite classic for the whole family..."
