Excellent compilation
The Clone Wars story is exceptional and a great addition to the Star Wars cannon. The first three seasons are definitely more kid-friendly, but the themes and story becomes much more adult the final couple of seasons.
Sadly, that's also when the really excellent extra features disappear from the set as well - which is sad as the features from the early seasons are great.
The voiceover work is top-notch and you forget just a few episodes in that the primary cast are not the real actors from the films, however there are a few pleasant surprises and cameos.
As mentioned above, this series was cancelled and this is (at the time Feb, 2014) the only way to collect the entire set. However, Season 6 has been announced and will eventually be released, but there is no indication if it will be out on its own or if Disney will double-dip and release another complete edition with it added on.
With that caveat in mind, I still highly recommend this set and then just buying Season 6 when it's eventually released, unless you are a completionist.

Star Wars remains supreme with this show!
Wasn't sure how I'd like this show, especially since it appeared to be marketed towards a younger audience. The first season started off a bit slow and did seem to carefully balance itself between being a show for adult fans and catering to it's new, younger fan base. This didn't last long as the series began pushing its limits each and every show.
As a fan of the new trilogy (not a fair weather fan), I feel this show not only did justice to Star Wars, but in particular ways, became far superior to the original trilogy. That is a monumental statement but is justified by a deeper story, more involved character development and the introduction of characters we've never seen in any of the movies (cannon).
This blu-ray collection is stellar and I enjoyed watching both the episodes and the extras. So much packed in the collectors edition, you'll enjoy it for hours... Well, actually days.
Definitely a must buy for REAL Star Wars fans.

A nice buy for Star Wars enthusiasts
It's not a complete set. It doesn't have the pilot episode. When the package arrived and I opened it up one of the holders inside of the case was broken and a disc was sliding around loose. luckily it did not scratch the disc. I've watched the set twice now, and no issues other than some of the episodes feel like they're out of place not in order. still not a bad buy.
