That headline makes me far happier than I care to admit.

After a pre-order showed up on Amazon, I think we all knew this was a done deal, but getting the official press release in my email box still put a big ass smile on my face.  Shout!  Factory is releasing the complete first season (and thus, the complete series) of G.I. Joe: Renegades on Blu-Ray!  Available for the first time (for most folks) in high definition, this collection gathers all 26 episodes of the landmark animated series, which was cut down far too soon.
