Thundercats: Series 1 Volume 1 (6 Disc Box Set) [DVD]

This is a fantastic product for the cost. Over 30 episodes. If you grew up during this era, this is a must have. It will make you feel like a kid again, watching after school cartoons before going out to play with friends. I loved ThunderCats as a kid, and just as much now as an adult. This is nostalgia at its finest. They just dont make em like this anymore, including the remake of this show. But thankfully, we have these DVD's to save us! A must buy for any `80's child!

purplefeline1 first of all let me start, by saying sorry for the late reply because I did, reserve this, a little while ago but I was jut waiting for my other dvds to come so now, they have come thank you!. for they are in the condition that was advertised im writing to let you know that, I am more then very pleased with this item and look forward in doing business with you again some time in the near futureWilliam.

Excellent dvd takes me back to my child hood all works well it's a excellent buy

Very happy with the discs however seem to have a problem playing them?!? There are no deep scratches on the disc itself but all seem to stop working in my dvd player at home around three quarters of the way through. Very frustrating.But absolutely love these cartoons and only reason I've given 4, otherwise it'd be straight 5 :-)

excellent value for money. i really enjoyed sitting with my three year old grandson to watch this as much as i did back in the day with my children. i bought as i remember it being less violent than the other sups that he finds exciting. i do watch with him and explain it to him when it does become a bit scary. he loves it!

Loved this show as a kid so had to buy the entire series.

For the money this is excellent value, 3 month on and my son still has loads to watch! He watches it every night and absolutely love it. The old series are much better than new ones, as said by my 5year old son!

A little disappointing as some of the dvd discs were scratched.

Feel the magic, hear the roar! Thundercats are loose! The famous theme song that is sung by kids of all ages that is still sung to this day in honest reverence. One of the best, most popular science fiction/fantasy/action animated series of all time! The royal family of a feline human species leaves their planet which is destroyed. Battlestar Galactica anyone? Pretty similar concept but that is where the similarities end. They fight in spaceship battles for a little of the journey before they escape into deep space. Now they find a habitable world on long range sensors but the trip will take several decades so they place themselves in cryogenic capsules similar to the ones on Alien/Aliens. Only one, named Jaga, remains awake to pilot the damaged ship to ensure they make the trip. Jaga gets them within autopilot distance, only about a day or two away but cannot live any longer and dies. The ship, damaged in the space battles with the Mutants, the evil beings that destroyed Thundera, the ancestral home of the Thundercats, identifies this new world as Third Earth, a world that could be in the distant past(look at the villain in this series) or distant future of Earth. The ship loses one of it's landing gear and barely crash lands at the site it identified as perfect for the Cat's Lair, a giant, heavily armed fortress to be the Thundercats new home on a new world. However, the mystical sword one of them carries has been magically detected by the villain in this series who is quite into magic himself! Now out of cryo-stasis and with The Cat's Lair built and operational, they must face exotic creatures, mystical threats, and extreme battles on their new homeworld! They gain friends on Third Earth to help them fight the evil beings after their goods and weapons. The leader of the Thundercats was in his early teens when placed in cryogenic stasis and after a long trip, he now is physically an adult but still rather teenage in his mentality and decisions at times. He must learn to be leader rather quickly as you will see. ACTION, ACTION, ACTION. A good mix of super space technology and ancient, mystical powers used by both good and evil beings. You will also see a LOT of Japanese Anime influence in the weapons and fighting styles that they use, especially Panthro and Cheetara. Made in the 80's, this cartoon is still watched and loved to this day for a good reason: it is just that AWESOME!

We enjoyed this series from the time my children were young, in the 80s. As the local stns discontinued we did not ever get the opportunity to watch the whole series. My son now has the whole series, and he lives away. I had a couple of seasons and wanted to complete the set. We have recommended it our children/grand children. We sit down and watch this together.

Very well done

Is the episode "Garden of delight" edited? We see Lion-O, Cheetara, and Panthro in the dungeon rewinding the surveilence device that Panthro sent to spy on Tigre, who was overdosed and out of his mind on that fruit, and the nextthing I know I see Lion-O tied up like he's about to be killed and Tigre back to normal. I just get a feel like there is something missing. Was something edited between those 2 points? If anyone knows the answer will you pleaseleave a comment. I love this show. I don't see what the problem other reviewers have with it. It looks fine to me. I am happy with it the way it is. The dvd's come in 3 standard cases 2 discs in each for a total of 6 discs.Additional Review: I just obtained a copy of this episode that was made from tv and it has more scenes, so this episode in this release is edited. With the added scene footage the ending makes sense. without the added scene footage the ending doen't make sense. Unless you've seen it before on tv, which I haven't. In the added scenes : Lion-O, Panthro and Cheetara watch the surveilence device and and we see scenes of what happened. Then Tigre asks Mumm-ra for more fruit in front of Willa.

Came on time
