G.I. Joe A Real American Hero: Complete Collectors Set [The Complete Series] Review
As you read all the many positive reviews here, you'll see why I chose this item as my first Amazon review, it deserves it! This set is simply fantastic (AND WORTH EVERY PENNY!). This review really goes out to the producers of the set, Shout! Factory. You can instantly tell that this set was manufactured with the utmost care and detail for the fans and I'm not talking about just the fancy packaging. I'm talking about the video quality/clarity, the sharp/clear sound, the way its all organized/presented and all the wonderful extras included, which have some really touching moments, especially seeing the ensemble of voice talents together and seeing how they genuinely loved and miss working on the series. You truly get an understanding for why the GI Joe animated series has endured as long as it has with us BIG kids (and hopefully our generation of kids, because Rise of Cobra is s&*t!) I just hope that if you're on the fence (like I was) with purchasing it, you just go for it, because the guys at Shout! who put this together deserve the recognition and praise for compiling such a wonderful set for all us fans of JOE!
G.I. Joe A Real American Hero: Complete Collectors Set [The Complete Series] Overview
G.I. JOE is the code name for Americas daring highly-trained special missions force. Its purpose: to defend human freedom against Cobra, a ruthless organization determined to rule the world. For the first time ever, the complete collection of the original animated series is on DVD including the final half of Season Two which has never been on DVD before.
In 1983 Hasbro made a bold statement when it relaunched its classic toy line of military action heroes as an adventure-based team of unique characters, each with his, and her, own specialties. And because it captured the imaginations and hearts of boys and girls aspiring to make a difference in the world, G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero was an immediate success lasting over 25 incredible years.
Now you can relive the original animated adventures of Duke, Scarlett, Snake-Eyes, Flint, Lady Jaye and rest of the Joe team with this 17-disc collectors set of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. It is all housed in a premium footlocker package.

kind of a disapointment - J. Soria -
I can't believe they call this the complete series cuz like The Transformers there were some more episodes after the movie. That is why I bought this cuz I thought this set would include those episodes so I could finally see the sequel to the movie. But no this set stops at the movie. If your a real fan like me you know this series continued after the movie. Yeah General Hawk in his new outfit, the new G.I.Joe base, a new Battle Andriod Trooper commander named Overkill, & Ninja Force with Snake-Eyes, Storm Shadow, & Scarlet. Other than that i like this set.

Great set it brings back memories of coming home after school as a kid and watching G.I. Joe with other great cartoons of that time. My only complaint is the case is a little hard to keep open and easy to tear which I found out very quick. Other then that it was great viewing!
Good buy - M. Bell - seattle
As good as I remember. Now, my kids can watch it. For some reason my 4-yr old daughter seems to enjoy it more than me now, and she especially likes the opening and closing music. Got it when amazon had a sale for 93 dollars, which is about a dollar an episode. Great value! I wish I didn't donate all of my vintage figures (and I had a gigantic collection). Oh well.
