Mummies Alive The Complete Series 42 Episode Set on 2 Blu-ray Discs
In ancient Egypt, an evil sorcerer named Scarab, kills the pharaoh’s son, Prince Rapses, so he can become immortal. Entombed alive for his crime, Scarab revives in the modern world and begins his search for Rapses’ reincarnation, a San Francisco-dwelling boy named Presley Carnovan to retrieve the spirit of Rapses’ so he can become immortal. Rapses’ (Presley’s) bodyguards, Ja-Kal, Rath, Armon, and Nefer-Tina, along with Rapses’ cat, Kahti, awake from the dead to protect him from Scarab. They use the power of Ra to transform into powerful guardians.
Each of the mummies is aligned with the power of an Egyptian god. Ja-Kal uses the spirit of falcon, Rath uses the spirit of snake, Armon uses the spirit of ram, and Nefer-Tina uses the spirit of cat. They are able to call upon it for magical armor and powers to fight superhuman evildoers. Although, once their strength is exhausted, they must rest in their sarcophagi to regain the ability. In order to access these powers, the mummies call out the phrase “With the Strength of Ra!”, which triggers their transformation. The mummies also have the power to make a horrifying face, usually used to scare away nosy bystanders.
In addition to Scarab, the mummies often had to contend with gods and spirits from Egyptian myth summoned to the modern world, including Anubis, Set, Geb, Apep, Bast, Sekhmet, Bes, and many others, usually as part of one of Scarab’s schemes that went out of his control.
This set is made with high quality paper, case and media.

Almost forgot about this show until scrolling through the products pages! Used to watch this and the Roughnecks series back to back before school as a kid. Yes, it’s corny as hell but compared to today’s cartoons its still holds up.
The Blu-rays play perfectly on my PS4 and regular Blu-ray player and the picture and sound are probably the best they are ever going to look. Top notch blu’s and probably better than whatever official DVD release, if ever, we would have gotten beforehand.
