Summary of "Season 1, Volume 2 - Great set!":
These He-Man sets are simply amazing for a number of reasons. When BCI announced they had licensed the show people either asked who they were, or groaned because they knew BCI as a company that released public domain products. It's amazing what one release can do for a company, and it really only took He-Man to change public opinion. BCI contacted Val Staples, the man behind He-Man.org, and they used his knowledge and contacts to make the best damn releases they could. They also brought Andy Mangels on board to produce the documentaries. Andy and Val's work is all over these sets, and why not? BCI got the fans involved, and they have a much better product because of it. They're doing such a good job with He-Man that you often hear "I wish BCI had it" from fans of other animated shows. The "best of" release won the award for "Best Animated Release" at the 2005 TV-DVD Awards, and I doubt the voting was close.

BCI did an amazing job with these sets, and if you're a fan of the show then you must buy this set. Other studios should take note as well; this is how you do an animated release on DVD! (read entire review)
