"It's the adventures that made the man, and the man who became the legend."
―Tagline[src]

The Complete Adventures of Indiana Jones is the banner name given to the 1999 VHS release that combined The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones with the three movies existing at that time. It was the first time episodes from The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles television series were officially released on home video in the United States, albeit re-edited, and the final time the theatrical films saw a release on VHS. LaserDisc versions were announced for the collection which ultimately never materialized.

The collection was intended to have 25 chapters in total (one on each videotape), numbered in the chronological story order. However, only twelve of the chapters from The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones were released. Upcoming chapters were announced for the following year but were canceled.

These missing chapters were later aired on ABC in 2001 and would not see a home release until the DVD box sets which went on sale in the months preceding the theatrical debut of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in May 2008.
