   At least something of She-Ra is out on dvd. I will love the christmas special when it comes out December 6. I think both her and He-Man make a cute couple.

   Okay, even though her series hasnt hit DVDs yet, but at least we can be happy something of She-ra is actually coming to DVD. Ive never seen this christmas special, though I believe I will love it.

   I used to watch the old series of She-Ra with my grandmother every saterday morning, wit my Pops and bootie pajamas. Ever since the VHS tapes of the series and this christmas special has disappeared from rental shelves, its been nearly impossible to find anything of the twin brother and sister together in one DVD.

   The Honor of Grey skull is returning!

   Hey,you guys who said there are no extras on this dvd? Are you being on drugs or drunk??

   this dvd got an awesome and rare extra. . . didn’t you noticed. . the “I have the power” music video feature thing. . Might be switched song name from. . “for the honor of love” or something. .

   this is a rocking. . kick butt music video ever. . in entire universe.

   don’t you all agree?

   I haven’t yet seen the DVD version but I remember that as a child, this was one of my most frequently rented movies. She-Ra was definitely one of my favorite shows and I had most, if not all, of the action figures. I’m so glad something of She-Ra has finally been released on DVD and I give it 5 stars just for that. I’m sure I will love it.

   By the way, She-Ra and He-Man would not make a cute couple because they are twin brother and sister.

   Since writing the above, I have watched the DVD several times. The quality of the picture was good, I found no fault with it. As for the bonus material, I thought there could have been more about She-Ra. There is a list of She-Ra and He-Man characters and their descriptions, which I found to be incomplete.
   Despite those factors I’d still give the DVD 5 stars. Hopefully we’ll be seeing more of She-Ra in the near future.

   This DVD release was eagerly anticipated by myself and many other children of the 1980’s who grew up watching She-Ra—and remain astounded there are no series releases yet. It is also a heart-warming holiday special for children of the 1980’s.

   Orko brings back two earth children, Alisha and Manuel, after Man-at-Arms’s satellite testing had accidentally beamed him down to Earth and then back again. In inter-planet exchange (and holiday tie-in) the Earthling children proceed to share Christmas customs with their new friends.

   The children realize that Adam, Adora, and their friends from both Eternia and Etheria are good people. Because these twins very rarely get to see each other despite a shared mission to protect and defend entire planets, Adora and Adam’s holiday celebration is very special indeed.

   The holiday spirit of the children is so strong that the Horde Prime decided Hordak and Skeletor’s combined efforts are required to defeat the Christmas spirit.

   However, the best part of this story is seeing Skeletor have a BIG change of heart (ala The Grinch) and then work to save the children from Hordak and the Horde Prime—his one-time collaborators, who apparently remain just as miserable and evil as ever. Who knew Skeletor was such a softie underneath it all? Oddly though, the holiday sentiment does not permanently transfer because Skeletor would continue to battle He-Man in other seasons as if nothing has ever happened to him.

   I hope that this marks the beginning of complete She-Ra seasons themselves being released onto DVD. It’s absurd that long-time fans such as me have to endure such great lengths in order to see a childhood heroine once again in action.

   The only thing that really bugs me about this release is not having any extras of any kind. Something like this practically begs for the extras which only the DVD format can host!
