Now that I went out and bought this today, let me just confirm that the extras on here won't be repeated on the season sets that i'm definitely getting..
right?

You're right, it is some of the best DVD packaging I've seen lately.

The content looks good so far. I did notice a minor problem with the video when He-Man aims his sword at Cringer and turns him into Battle Cat. I think the bright light that shimmers around Battle Cat after his transformation stresses the compression. The picture is very blocky until the scene changes.
I agree that the voice-over was way over the top, but that may have been intentional. This is an '80s show, after all. I was surprised by the writer discussing his work on Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter. This is a show for children, and he's talking about a machete slicing into Jason's head. Seems inappropriate.
Anyway, great set. I hope there are interviews with the cast in later sets. I would love to hear a few words from the voice talent--and see the faces behind the voice talent. Maybe they did speak here, and I have yet to find them.

This is truely a great set. The picture quality is beautiful, and as others have said, the packaging is something to behold. I can't wait for BCI to release the season sets and The Christmas Special where He-man meets She-ra! I too would love a DvdTalk review of this.
Now we can all have the power.

I picked this up on release day & am VERY impressed. Kudos on a job well done, BCI. I don't see myself picking up the season sets though. A couple episodes here & there are enough for me...same for Transformers & GI Joe.

Haven't picked one up yet, may go to Wal Mart in the next couple of days to see if they have any.
I'll be getting my 6" staction figures pretty soon too. I'll post some pics of them when I get'em set up. Haven't decided which shelf I'm gonna put them on yet. Probably depends on exactly how tall they are.
