First off, let me say the price was unbeatable. 4 DVD's for only $16 at Target--I consider that a steal. Now, on to the review!

Just like the original cartoon, the episodes are full-frame, which is fine, but I was a little disappointed in the quality. There are still a lot of scratches and it appears little to nothing was done to clean up the masters. In one episode, I even saw a frame for "Insert Commercial Here" for about a second. Not the cleanest job in the world.

The "bonus" material is skinny in my opinion. The original PSA's are ok but the toy commercials are poor quality and the children's faces are blurred out. I guess that was a legal cya, but it looks tacky. There were only about three or four commercials included as well. The original 1963 Toy Fair video looks like it was taken from a VHS tape with crappy tracking...I watched about half of it. Also included is a printable script for "Jungle Trap". Printable script? What is that all about? I know Shout! Factory wanted to include all the other bonus material in the huge 17 disc box set, but whatever. I'm still not complaining, though. It's all good, nostalgic stuff.

The packaging is nice and sticks to the 80's cartoon look and feel. I have the "original" Rhino box (2 DVD) set from back in the day. It was also a cool collection as it came with a 3 3/4" Snake Eyes figure (which is now safely stored with my collection). I thought the packaging for the Rhino set was awesome, as it had a nice die-cut front and cool fold-out. This set isn't that elaborate, but still looks good and its slim profile is easier on the DVD storage space as opposed to the 2 1/2" thick Rhino set. Still, the included booklet and rub-on tattoos are a nice touch! I love that they kept the original G.I. Joe logo with the "A Real American Hero" trademark. Awesome!!

By far a must-have for any Joe fan's DVD collection.
