DVD Set
Ah, yes, Insektors on DVD. What I would give to have this lovely show in high-quality. Well, I guess what. I do! Only thing is, they are in PAL format, and they only include the French dub. But hey, that's okay! Being as it's such an obscure series, you've gotta take what ever you can get.
And that's just what I did. Went to good ol' Ebay, bought the set from a very nice France seller, and bingo. They finally arrived, and I have been amused at seeing the series I love in... well, French. Mind you, I can READ French perfectly fine, but trying to understand the spoken language.. it's very difficult. I was hoping that there was a subtitle option, so I could read, but there isn't. Ah well. I'm happy anyway, just for the visuals. All my recorded episodes are grainy and bad quality, so watching it in crisp quality is a real treat.
The DVDs come in their own special and very nice box. There are three DVDs in all, each with their own unique covers. They fit all nice and snug in the box. I'll give information about each DVD, as well as scans and translations of what is written on them.

There isn't a lot of text on the box itself, but there is a little blurb written on the side, which as follows...
La planète Karbone est peuplée de deux tribus d'insectes: Les Joyces et les Beurks. Les Joyces, heureux et insouciants, habitent un paradis fleuri et coloré, sous la sage autorité du Grand Artificier. Les Beurks, eux, détestent la lumière, la couleur, et la musique. Ils se terrent dans une grande souche sombre et humide, gouvernée par la terrible Reine Bakrakra et son horrible premier ministre Krabo.
De poursuites en cascades, sous terre comme dans les airs, ils se livrent une guerre des couleurs sans merci, qui se termine toujours bien... enfin... Pas pour tous le monde.
(Rough) Translation (Sorry if it's kinda wonky; it was weird to translate some parts):
The Planet Karbon is populated by two tribes of insects: The Joyces and The Beurks (Yuks). The Joyces, happy and carefree, live in a flowered and colorful paradise under the wise authority of the Great Pyro (I assume it's the Great Pyro; the direct translation was 'Big One Explosives Maker'.... right). The Yuks, on the other hand, hate light, color and music. They burrow in a large dark and humid stump, governed by the terrible Queen Bakrakra and their horrible prime minister, Krabo.
In cascading pursuit, underground like in melodies, they endure a war of colors without mercy, that always finishes well... at last.. though not for everyone.
And now, for the good stuff: The DVDs!
