Yes, that's the one. Loved it

That would probably be the Dungeons and Dragons Cartoon Show. I believe it was on in the early-mid 80's or there abouts. Kids go on themepark ride, go to another dimesion or what-not, take on silly RPG classes. Fight evil. And so on and so forth.

Actually, when I saw the first cartoon I was much more impressed by that series where a bunch of kids get magically transported from a theme park ride into a magic world (forgot the name). Over time, I grew to like MotU much more, though.

These cassettes are great. Listened to two last week The first time I saw the old cartoon was three or four years ago. It's funny, but it didn't impress me much.

Well, I grew up with the audio cassettes that are still the best.

That's true. Just last weekend I was watching both pilot episodes - for the original series and for the new series, and that's where I saw all the differences. Still, I grew up with the TV show and not the comic books.

Well, this new line is pretty much what the original line was at first in the 80s (and some additional Manga crap elements of course). Check the old comics of the time before the cartoon came out. It's pretty much Beastmaster, too.

Well, it's better, but not too much. At least Skeletor has gloves on.

Anyway, I always saw He-Man as a slightly more civilized Conan. What I got from your pictures was a Beastmaster - the TV show instead.

As much as the quality of the toys has declined, this 'live show' was fun! The 80s had their cheesy bad live shows, too. Do you think this was any better?

This thread has made me cry. Just to think how deep has the greatest homoerotic cartoon of all times fallen...

Bah! On Friday, He-Man only won the swordfight with Skeletor, because the kids helped him. At least he said so. At least I think he said so, his microphone was broken, and he was hard to understand....

Well, that's how good always wins! They never do anything wrong, and all the evils do!

Yes, always blame someone else. Whiney do-gooder! Join the dark side and take responsibility on your own!

Yeah, but that's what happens when your teacher's eyes point in two different directions.

Before the show actually started, some guys ran around and tried to grab kids unwilling off the street to use them for their little games on the stage. Not that any of the kids actually knew what all of this was about...

That just means "from He-Man". You were probably thinking about the "von" being part of the name, like old Baron "von Richthofen" or something, weren't you?

That's kind of smart indeed, but did you also notice the strange colour of his hands?

Who are those kids that seemed to be assigned to teams?!? Weird.

Von He-Man?

and it's so good of skeletor to display his own merchandise in his media photo.

Skeletor on the other hand gave out autographs, too, but being evil and all, he only personalized, but didn't sign them

I still have Internet access! 128kbit Cable modem but it works :p

Then you'll miss all these great stories about Tentacle rape. What a pity!

Comic store? We don't have any here. I live in Turkey, remember? It's really as bad as living inside of that bird.
