Hero
High, Ghostbusters & The Best of Bravestarr
BCI has been releasing DVD collections of 1970s & 1980s Filmation
Saturday morning shows to amazing sales success. And the hits keep on
coming.
Hero High, Ghostbusters and The Best of Bravestarr
landed on store shelves recently,both amazing packages that fans will
flip over.
The Best of Bravestarr contains the epic animated Bravestar
movie and select episodes from the cartoon series. Jack Kirby designed
some of the characters, that's always interesting to see.
Filmation's Ghostbusters Volume 3 isn't the cartoon series based
on the hit movie, it's based on the Saturday morning live action show
that preceded the film. You know, this is the one with the two guys and
the gorilla; now BCI has released all versions now of The Ghostbusters
/ Ghost Busters Saturday shows so whichever one you prefer can be
yours.
Hero High, Filmation's Ghostbusters and The Best of Bravestarr
are all jam packed with extras. Animation buffs will love these DVD releases
for the wonderful stories about working at Filmation's Saturday morning
factory in the '70s & '80s. All will be collector's items in the future,
I'm betting.
As
usual, if you order now over the internet you'll save a bunch of money.
