Probably the most underrated He-Man series ever produced.

:o Wow, He-Man has lost his bob cut. Now I'm really interested :D It has an interesting plot point as well; the last of humanity asking for He-Man's help by dragging him into the future (Fast Forward deja vu, anyone? :P). Skeletor looks a bit campy for my taste though :/ I like the old design better... Still, it does look promising for me :)

Skeletor did look campy but as far as his personality goes this was probably his coolest incarnation. Plus his look was changed later in the show.

That figure was cool but I never got why he had a helmet.

Read about this a little while back.

Vol. 1 is scheduled for release Dec. 26th. Yes, right -after- Christmas!

He changed his look one episode after the five part pilot, a daring move given he maintained his original look in the title sequence for the rest of the series

Huh? So there are only five episodes with his original look? I always thought there were more...

What did DVD do to deserve to be hit, by he-man strongest man in the universe. I bet DVD will feel that tomorrow morning.

Nope. After the pilot, the episode "Sword and Staff" explains how Skeletor aqquires his new powers and look, it's one of the few single episodes barring the other five part arcs that he actually defeats He-Man

Actually, they've already 'felt the punch'. As the original He-Man series is out on DVD too (the whole Series comprising 4 Box-Sets). And She-Ra is going to be starting in a couple weeks (Nov. 7th is the scheduled release for the first Box-Set of it).

Haha, yeah, I just can't count. So there are only six? I actually remember "Sword & Staff", it was one of my favourite eps back then. Btw, do you have any pics of Skeletor without his helmet from later episodes? I can't find any.

I'm looking forward to this because I only got to see about four episodes when was a kid and sadly I don't remember anything about them.

So I definitely getting this when it hits DVD. Nice box cover.

Nice. I'm looking forward to it as well. Remember some stuff, but not all that much. So be good when the time comes (and the Set's released), and am able to watch it again.

Just like with the '80s He-Man (which I have all the Sets for).
