5/5 A Classic Of The 80's Has Come Back Greatly
  by Rich (CA)
After watching the live action movie of G.I. Joe Rise Of The Cobra(While a little entertaining but still a somewhat of a letdown) I felt the feelings of wanting to watch the cartoon version to bring back the true enjoyment of this series. The animated series and the live action version of course differ greatly so if you're a fan of the cartoon series than you must pass the live action movie over or be prepared to be annoyed. The cartoon version while lasting I think about 95 episodes was and will always be one of the most remembered shows of the 80's to live on. Watching as the JOES and Cobra would battle each other every episode or through multi-part story saga episodes was great and entertaining to watch and I was greatly saddened when the producers decided to cancel the show. The cast for the JOES and COBRA were so numerous that it was easy for anyone to have their own personal favorite character for the show from Duke, Scarlet, Snake Eyes, Flint, and Lady Jaye to Cobra Commander and Destro and the Baroness. The video quality of the box sets for this show was amazing considering the age of the show itself and while not picture perfect it still reaches close to that point and the audio is pretty decent as well no buzzing or annoyance to speak about. Though for the price of these sets I say get the first season two box sets very affordable and with some pretty decent extras which I haven't seen all of them is still pretty good. While some might not care for the animation especially those who've become to use to the cgi effects used with today's animated cartoons an the likes might not care for these earlier classics, but for those who grew up watching these cartoons or have seen them through reruns on cable here's a great catch for your home library today. One thing though I would say is while they tried to make a new revival during the 90's that show I felt was sadly lacking the spark that the 80's version had and while they weren't bad the 90's version just didn't connect with me as the earlier series did so for fans of the 80's version just stick with these box sets and just pass over the 90's version....

5/5 oh the memories

GI Joe was one of my favorite shows growing up. I find the dvd's awesome, the only i thought could be better is that it wasn't digitally remastered for today's technology. other than that its great buy for any fan.

I was very excited when this DVD came out. Not only was I able to relive my child hood I was able to share a very cool cartoon with my sons. (The cartoons now a days do not come close to yesterday) However I was disappointed that they did not include the Public Safty Lessons. They were so cheezie, it was the best part of the show. Something that Kids of today can always use. Thats why it only gets four stars from me.

5/5 Worth the price for the animated films

What surprised me was Marvel didn't do the same for it's Hulk or Spider Man at the time. It would have been nice to see a feature film animation treatment this one had. All in all I did love to see these again unedited and without commercials. After watching the characters interact I wanted to see the eventual series. It's too bad there isn't a CGI version on the air today. We need G.I. Joe on TV more than ever. Yo Joe!
