A few years ago, famed filmmaker Kevin Smith revived the cult-classic cartoon series Masters of the Universe–also known as He-Man–with a new Netflix series split into two seasons: Masters of the Universe: Revelation and Masters of the Universe Revolution. Both seasons will soon be bundled in a new $50 Blu-ray Collection launching on May 13, and preorders are available at Amazon.
$50 | Releases May 13
The Masters of the Universe: Revelation and Revolution Steelbook Edition is a three-disc Blu-ray collection that includes all 15 episodes of the rebooted series. Special features are also included in the release according to the Blu-ray’s description, though it doesn’t outline what those extras are. At the very least, you’ll be getting a unique steelbook case featuring unique cover art and interior art of He-Man and his nemesis Skeletor.
The show is a direct sequel to the ’80s Masters of the Universe animated series, and it picks up shortly after Skeletor’s assault on Castle Grayskull ends in the supposed death of He-Man. With Eternia’s protector out of the picture, Revelation’s story focused on Teela as she journeyed to save the day and uncover the secrets of Grayskull. Overall, the show has been well-received, and while a third season has yet to be greenlit, Revelation and Revolution are still fun homages to the classic series and crafted with sharp animation. Both seasons featured a stacked voice cast, including Mark Hamill as the dread villain Skeletor, Sarah Michelle Gellar as Teela, and the late Tony Todd as Scare-Glow.
If you’re looking to complete the collection, the 1983-1985 run of He-Man cartoons have been collected into a DVD bundle, alongside several other beloved titles from Filmation during its ’80s golden age and Netflix’s popular She-Ra revival.
