He-Man(2002)

So who else is a fan of this remake?

I really wish we got more seasons.

Also it could use a blu ray release.

Both seasons were on sale for about $6 last week on Amazon PrimeVideo. The shows strike a good balance between iconic and modernized character designs. All the tie-in action figures look really good too.

Yes I love this show, animation is great. I have the complete series box set but one of the discs has scratches on it which effects play unfortunately so I'll have to go on eBay to look for another copy. Liked this version far more than the 80's one.

Always meant to find a way to try this series out. I've only seen maybe two episodes, but it looked great.

[CyberCubed]

I've never watched this but after watching all of Kevin Smith's series which is over now I've decided to give this a try. The 2002 series is only 39 episodes so it's short enough you can probably breeze through it in a week or two.

I'll watch it online for free on the illegal cartoon streaming websites. No need to buy a DVD or buy it digitally anywhere.

This was such a good show. I wish it would've gotten another season or two, so that the series had enough episodes to watch over and over again. It absolutely had the quality of my favorite action cartoon: Beast Wars/Machines, Batman: TAS, Justice League/JLU, and the 4Kids TMNT cartoon. Unfortunately, it just didn't have the longevity.

Unfortunately, it just didn't have the longevity.

I guess it didn't sell as many action figures as Mattel intended. :)

[drgon78]

Yeah the toys sales didn't do as good as they hope though at least it did good enough to get a second season.

Too bad, we would have gotten to see She-Ra if lasted a 3rd season.

Mattel made way too many He-Man and Skeletor figures for that line

What year was the average Masters of the Universe fan born during the original Hemania?

[drgon78]

I was born is 1978.

[Original TMNT Cartoon Fan]

I was born is 1978.

OK. If the average Masters of the Universe fan was born in the late 1970's and early 1980's, it meant that when the second He-Man cartoon originally aired between August 2002 and January 2004, he or she usually either didn't have any children yet, or the children were too young to fully enjoy the cartoon.

No surprise the action figures failed and remember, Masters of the Universe is a far more action figure-based franchise than TMNT.

Who owns the physical rights to this series?

Has anyone seen it streaming? If so is it in HD?

[drgon78]

Who else saw the series when it first aired?

Who owns the physical rights to this series?

In June 2009, Mill Creek Entertainment acquired the rights to the series and subsequently released He-Man and the Masters of the Universe - The Complete Series, a 4-disc box set featuring all 39 episodes of the series on DVD in Region 1 on September 29, 2009.[8] They also released a 10-episode single disc best of DVD on the same day.

You can stream it on Amazon Prime, episodes are in SD. I'm not a fan on streaming tbh I always like having a physical copy just in case the shows get taken down from the streaming service.

[drgon78]

I heard there is an HD version on some streaming service, so there is a chance for a blu ray release.

[drgon78]

I really really wish this one got more seasons.

[drgon78]

I have heard rumors of this one finally getting some blu ray love. I hope it is true.

[ZariusTwo]

It is, it's being released in Europe/Germany, but it'll have english option audio

[drgon78]

I would still like a US blu ray release, unlike the original series I am sure the film/digital elements still exist for this one.

[drgon78]

I was not expecting to get a video game.....especially after all these years.

[Stephen]

There was also "The Most Powerful Game in the Universe", released in 2012/2013

I watched the Netflix Kevin Smith reboot, I enjoyed it enough. I can't stand the 80s show, it feels too ancient, I think only people who grew up with it can enjoy it. Would the 2002 be a good fit to the tone of the Smith one?

[Antoniocafe]

The show is also currently available in its entirety for free on Kabillion.

[ZariusTwo]

Looks like He-Man.org is being relaunched

[Coola Yagami]

I hope they bring back the forum.

[ZariusTwo]

I hope they bring back the forum.

No plans to at the moment, a lot of the .Org members have a community on He-Mania.com though (formerly 'For Eternia', but they also had to relaunch after a cyber-hack)

It's not a very busy place though. There's whole sub-forums there that haven't been updated in over half a year.

[drgon78]

I would be interested if they bring back the forum.
