Episodes are greatly preserved, the cases fold out into 6 panels (6 discs---about 33 episodes each set) with terrific artwork in the "background" and on each disc, and each set comes with 2 collector cards and a set guide. The special features are awesome too, with documentaries and commentaries and profiles and more. And at around 30-35 bucks, these are definitely great buys. "I have the powerrrrrrrr!"

The cartoon was never broadcast where we lived, but we weer able to find the videos. When I was a kid, the Masters of the Universe movie was scouting a location near home, and I wanted to be in the movie so bad. Alas, they moved to another state and I missed my one shot at being Billy Barty's understudy.

LOL I remember one year Mom's Fort Knox base had a Christmas party, and all the kids got presents (we didn't realize it until we got there)...mine were the She-Ra villains Mantenna and Leech. I LOVED them, and Mom's female co-workers were grossed out when I would "pop up" Mantenna's eyeballs, LOL. I loved watchin' both toons.

Talk about a looooong afternoon for mom and dad

I wasn't the normal little girl. Yeah, I had Barbies, but mostly, I played with my He-Man & She-Ra action figures. I had Snake Mountain, too (oh, how I loved to play around with that echoing microphone!), and a bunch of the action figures, but I can't remember exactly which ones I had, apart from the Battle Damage He-Man. Oh, I remember I had the one that smelled like a skunk, but I can't remember his name. I loved the cartoon, too (I think my favorite one was the one where it revealed who Teela's mother was). I picked up the first DVD set that came out, the Best of collection, but I haven't gotten the seasons yet. Did any of you watch the He-Man remake cartoon a couple of years ago? I was surprised at the quality; it was an excellent series.

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy Yes, the Snake Mountain microphone! I loved it, lol! I assume the skunk-smellin' dude was Stinkor. ;-) <(I think my favorite one was the one where it revealed who Teela's mother was)> That's a terrific one..."Teela's Quest". It's I think the 6th episode, on Season 1 Volume 1. And I love how the heavy in that one is Mer-Man, my favorite Eternian baddie. >;-) I saw a bit of the newer series, but I'm a "classic" guy.
Originally Posted By jasmine7 <<Did your He-Man Action Figuress date or did they beat up Barbie?<< Nah, I was a stickler for continuity even then. They stayed in their own little realms. ;-) Yessss, Stinkor! I just couldn't think of his name. That guy used to drive my mom crazy because of the stench.

Originally Posted By TiggerPooh1973 Me and my brother watched both cartoons too. He had alot of the action figures and toys.
Originally Posted By FiveBearRugs I still have my figures in the shed... and I thought about buying the DVDs, but I thought: Do I really want them? Will I have time to watch them? I just started TiVoing South Park and I have 10 seasons to catch up on... Later I shall grace all of you with my own He-Man and She-Ra memories.

Together we defend Castle Greyskull from the evil forces of Skeletor.
