My Take on the DVD

I used to watch this show when I was a kid in the mid-1980's. and it was fun then and it was great to see that I as well as a whole new generation can watch and enjoy this series now as well. While this is only Season one I am sure that not too far into the future that will be coming out with the rest of the seasons as well. I will be nice when the whole series is out and you can finish the whole set! 

The series is fun with good writing and plot. While the artistry is different than what you would get today, it is still good never-the-less and it reminds me a lot of some of the other great 80's cartoons such as Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man and others!

If you are a Conan fan and you have never seen this series, you are missing out! Come and check it out today!
