Great review, Luke. Home Improvement S1 is already slated to be the next new season set I start, but now I'm even more excited for it. Can't wait to get S2 in the future. The packaging sounds awesome, and that rebate is good news... is a receipt from S1 needed?

Actually, looking back over it, I have bad news. Seems like a receipt is needed from Season 1, and that it needs to be purchased between June 7 and November 30 of this year. Either it's a typo, or an offer which only rewards the slow-to-buy. Wonder if you could get by sending in a Season 2 receipt, especially since some stores might not even spell out the full title. Thanks for having me check. I need to update my review with that information.

Thanks to all for the positive feedback on the review!
