Starcom opening titles

The cartoon lasted only thirteen episodes (incidentally, exactly the same amount as another stunning 80s cartoon series, Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light, tragically cut down in its prime), and first aired on September 20th 1987, the initial run lasting through until mid-December that year.

It is set in the future, during the colonisation of the Solar System, when Earth has become a pollution-free 'resort' of sorts, and there are human colonies on planets, moons and space stations throughout the galaxy.
The U.S. Space Force itself, dubbed Starcom, comprises three disciplines; Starbase Command, Starwing, and the Astro Marines (very much mirroring the navy/air force/army split of modern militaries), and the three main characters are each involved in a different 'battle group'.

You know, I used to love this show when I was about 6, why the hell have they not released it on DVD? They've done just about every other 80s cartoon series already.
