Review - Thundercats Season 1 Volume 2 DVD box set

Thunder...Thunder....Thundercats HOOOOOOOOO!!! You will be running around
yelling that at the top of your lungs for days after watching the
Thundercats Season 1 Volume 2 DVD box set. This set has been out now for
a few weeks and I finally found some time to sit down and watch it,
it's packed with 32 episodes for 11 hours of cartoon goodness on a total
of 6 discs.

If you were a Thundercats fan growing up, then of course this is a must
buy set for you, but if you have never seen any of the episodes before,
this set along with the Thundercats Season 1 Volume 1 set are worth
checking out as this is 80's animation and storytelling at it's best.

The inhabitants of the planet Thundera evacuate just before it is destroyed. They were pursued by a band of mutants. All but one of their escape ships was destroyed. Only a small group of Thunderans (Thundercats) remained. With only half engine power, the group, which was led by Jaga, had to set a course for the nearest planet. Jaga commanded their ship while the other 7 were in their stasis tubes. Jaga died on their journey to Third Earth and their ship crashed there.

Soon they made friends with various groups in the area and they designed a fortress. Mumm-Ra the centuries-old embodiment of evil, along with the mutants that destroyed the rest of the Thunderans are a constant threat. But Lion-O, the new leader of the Thundercats, with his weapon the "Sword of Omens" will help the Thundercats to have a standing chance.
