I don't hate it at all, and I found it lovably silly and camp. I know it has a lot of fans and followers, and I'm happy to see that you've posted as one of them :-) Haha, well, this is more of a fun review than a serious one, and if it gives you a nostalgia trip, then my work here is done, as far as I’m concerned.

I HAVE to disagree. As someone who grew up partially in Australia and partially in Singapore, I experienced a LOT of He-man and She-ra. And I will always love them both. Maybe it's an English thing, my husband spent a bit of time when we were in Aus talking me out of buying the ENTIRE series box set on DVD. It's a fantastic series. Its great for the morals at the end!! The don't do drugs one is one for the ages. I loved it then and I'll never stop loving it. In Australia I have an ex (now friend) and between us we collected all of the toys that went along with the show. There were hundreds. It was well worth it. Not to mention that you managed to pick the episode with Evil-Lynn and Skeletor HOLDING HANDS!!!!! It's so fantastic it makes me want to giggle. It's not as slick as anime for shading and the animation will never be as good as Thundercats, but every time i see that twelve frame walk cycle of adam striding across the screen, or He-Man punching the screen.... I just feel so at home. It's one of the best series of the eighties. And I won't hear otherwise. The christmas special where the Eternians (?) learn about the meaning of Xmas is horrific. Ah... You've got me all nostalgic now. I'm gonna go dig out my DVD rips of the VHS tapes I had at home and watch them all! Oh Steve…..

Separated at birth? He-Man wasn't my favourite cartoon but I did quite enjoy it, and owned a Battlecat (who hung out with my Thundercats).
