Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Who doesn't love the Thundercats Comment: I ordered this for my boyfriend and he got more then he expected. We didn't know there was more than one episode so getting five made it way better. We were both quite impressed with the DVD. Customer Rating: Summary: I Was 7 when this was on TV and my mind is still blown away Comment: Thundercats, This is what a cartoon should be, intriguing relationships, acient history, science, ethics and the best spaceship battle i've ever seen in a cartoon like this. I had forgotten that the lead charecter was nothing but an overgrown boy and Mumm-Ra knew of the sword of omens for a thousand years. The plot was so well written as were all the characters. Only one thing bothered me, Lion-O's summoning of the Thundercats every 20 minutes was a bit much. There were a few situation he could have handled on his own, but i guess when your 7 and you only see this every 24 hours, then it must be enjoyable to see all the Thundercats rescue their "fearless leader." Any person who was a child of the 80's, this is a must have! Customer Rating: Summary: Bootleg all the way. Comment: I bought this and while it was shrinkwrapped it WAS NOT factory sealed. It is infact a bootleg, aq very good bootleg, anyone these days can go and use ANY of the DVD authoring software and Photoshop and create there own DVDs that look just as good as store boughten stuff, it all depends on the source of the video. But this along with She-Ra and many others here on Amazon.com are bootlegs Warner Borthers is the only company releasing Thundercats, BCI is the only company releasing He-man and She-Ra DVDs. Please save your money. Go to websites like: http://www.tvshowsonDVD.com and do a search beofre you buy your fav cartoon, make sure it has a real release they will have the news there first. Customer Rating: Summary: Unbiased Review-I got my $$'s Worth Comment: This was yet another DVD I purchased during my "relive my childhood" binge. Like an earlier review I made, this is NOT a US release. It would seem silly that I would have to mention that but some people seem to be unable to read the fine print (sheesh). This seems to be an international dvd release (sold overseas I assume-->the region 2 & 4 are a dead giveaway). Unlike the previous reviewers who did not bother to look at the item's description which clearly states Region 1 "import," I can assure you that this dvd is actually factory produced. I mean I was a little skeptical after purchasing some Thundercats DVD sets on Ebay, but this dvd is actually authentic...NOT a dvdr. As for the dvd itself, the video quality was suprisingly good for a show this old. I'm not sure why one reviewer assesed the quality to be from a old VHS tape?? Let me tell ya, that's not the case-the quality is superb for an old show. Perhaps some of the reviewers were sellers on eBay that sold me "dodgy" sets? Hmm...it makes me wonder. Anyway, the dvd contains a main menu that has access to an animated episode selection screen and a bonus screen. The bonus primarily consists of short bios of a few of the Cats. Yea, not much for bonuses, but hey, the quality is good. All in all, the dvd was great. If you are unwilling to wait for a US release then I would definitely recommend this DVD to hold you over until the US release comes out. Customer Rating: Summary: Bootleg-Don't Buy! Comment: This disc is NOT an official release. It is an illegal bootleg. Want Thundercats? Wait for the official Warner Brothers box set that's due this year and don't waste your cash on this imitation. More Reviews
