Aces Go Places: A “James Bond” type burglar named King Kong (Sam Hui) tries to redeem himself and joins forces with Albert “Baldy” Au (Karl Maka), a bumbling police detective from the states, to try to track down a rare set of stolen luscious diamonds before it ends up in the hands of a notorious European gangster named “White Gloves.” The two unlikely duo are supervised by Supt. Nancy Ho, a masculine, fiery-tempered policewoman.

Aces Go Places II: Black Gloves (Joe Dimmick), a European assassin, is seeking to avenge his brother White Gloves’ death against reformed criminal King Kong (Samuel Hui) and Detective Albert “Baldy” Au (Karl Maka). While evading Black Gloves, the duo are framed for robberies by Hong Kong Triad members, who have their own plans against King Kong and Baldy. The duo is forced to deal with the Triad’s motorcycle gangsters and Black Glove’s weaponry-laden robot.

Aces Go Places Part III: While vacationing in Paris, King Kong (Samuel Hui) is kidnapped by a British agent (Jean Mersant), who wants to recover the Star of Fortune crown jewel, supposedly at the request of the Queen of England. To recover it from Hong Kong Police Headquarters, Kong must embark on a heist for the jewel without his partner-in-crime, Detective Albert “Baldy” Au (Karl Maka), finding out.

Aces Go Places IV: Superintendent Nancy Ho (Sylvia Chang) is kidnapped by villains who want to obtain a high-tech prism created by a Hong Kong professor that can grant superhuman powers. In exchange for her return, King Kong (Samuel Hui) and the professor’s daughter Sally (Sally Yeh), later joined by Albert “Baldy” Au (Karl Maka) and Baldy Jr. (Cyrus Wong), fly to New Zealand to deliver the high-tech prism to the crooks without letting them use it.

Aces Go Places V: The Terracotta Hit: After being framed for the robbery of a antique sword by brother and sister thieves (Leslie Cheung and Nina Li Chi), King Kong (Samuel Hui) and Albert “Baldy” Au (Karl Maka) must evade the smugglers that think they stole it. The smugglers attempt to hunt down Kong and Baldy, as do the Hong Kong Police, leading cops and both groups of thieves alike to their ultimate confrontation.
