Looks like Shout announced that season 2 and the 87 movie are coming to a disc near you.  I have all of season 1 and all the discs from the 5packs, but I've no clue when I'd find time to actually watch them.  Haven't seen the animated movie since I was a kid, but it will be nice to have - I guess.

Shout has an awesome box set of everything that they began selling last year.  They wanted $150+ at their Joecon table last year.  Amazon has it for $93.99 shipped.  I wish I could afford these right now.  I was hoping for a sale like this on these.

Also the TF G1 set is marked way down to $86.99 shipped.

I've been buying the individual releases as they come out, since I couldn't really afford to drop the whole amount for the nifty footlocker set.  I've really been enjoying watching them again.  I usually just catch and episode or two while I run on our treadmill, so I watch a few each week.  Sure, there are cheezy parts, but it holds up pretty well for me otherwise.  It may be a lot of the nostalgia of it, but I still enjoy watching the episodes - only bad part, it sometimes makes me want to track down more vehicles, etc. :)

I paid a few bucks more for the final Rhino set a few years ago since I originally passed on it not thinking they'd come back with another reissue.  That's an awesome deal.   :)

That's kind of another reason I haven't started on these...yet

Brian:
I've been watching the latest DVD set (Season 2 I believe it is called), and I guess I didn't remember how much the lineups really changed starting with this season.  You really don't see much of the "original" cartoon Joes, instead the lineup mainly consists of:

Hawk, Sgt. Slaughter, Beachhead, Low Light, Lifeline, Sci Fi, Leatherneck, Wet Suit, Mainframe, and Dial Tone

You still see some of the previous Joes (primarily Flint and Lady Jaye so far), but really not much of Duke, Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Shipwreck, Bazooka, Dusty, etc. from what I've watched so far.  I remember seeing these episodes as a kid as well, but I'm more familiar with the Season 1 (or on DVD, 1.1/1.2/1.3) I think.  Still good, and I like the new Joes (Beachhead, Sci Fi, and Wet Suit were always favorites)...but I guess I just forgot what a shift it was.  The same could be said for Cobra, as there doesn't seem to be as much Cobra Commander, Destro, Baroness, Storm Shadow or even the Crimson Twins....and more Serpentor, Dr. Mindbender, and the Dreadnoks.
