This past May we reported that Plaion Pictures had announced a brand new five disc Blu-Ray set of the classic 1983 Filmation cartoon series “He-Man and the Masters of the Universe”. (That report can be found here.)
Advertised as a “Volume One” (with more presumptive volumes to follow) and with no official cover art unveiled, this Blu-ray set was originally slated for an August 21st, 2024 release date…. but now things have changed.
Plaion Pictures has updated their official website page with a brand new release date: September 11, 2024.
Although not meant for resale in countries like the United States, fans around the world that missed out on Plaion Pictures’ “Eternia Collection” boxset have been looking forward to this release because previously (although their discs had German menus), every episode could be watched in English on region-free discs.
And while not true HD Masters from its original source, these upscale from PAL master Blu-Ray discs did become the highest quality release to date for Filmation He-Man (and She-Ra) fans.
Hopefully Plaion Pictures wont delay these discs any further, and release the cover artwork for the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983) (Vol. 1) (5 Blu-ray) set soon.
We’ll see you next time.
Can we get a lenticular cover? Fans would love that!
@therealbatman Oh I like that idea. It would be smart business too because a lenticular slipcase might make me buy it again even though I have the Eternia Collection.
