The competition to crown the best slugslinger in Slugterra rages on! Our money’s on Eli Shane, son of the legendary Will Shane, and leader of the Shane Gang consisting of his best friends Trixie, Pronto and Kord Zane. But they’re up against some serious competition, including the nefarious Dr. Blakk, who will stop at nothing to collect the finest slugs and add them to his ghoul arsenal. It’s up to the Shane Gang to make sure Dr. Blakk’s plans to conquer Slugterra don’t come to fruition. Time to SLUG IT OUT!
Slugterra has stuck a nice cord with kids these days and the proof isn’t just DVD releases like this, but you can now find action figures for this stuff as well. The show isn’t half bad for a kids cartoon and if you have kids I’m sure they’ll be more than happy to see you bring this one home. Adults won’t find much of value here, but then again it isn’t really created for us now is it? It is what it is and what it is is something for kids.
The disc does come with five episodes and bonus features. This should keep the little one busy for a little while and I think that is really what the grown-ups reading this will want. I grew up with G.I. Joe and He-Man, so this wasn’t my cup of tea, but for anyone who is into this sort of thing I believe you’ll enjoy what you see.
