When three kids explore Charterville’s haunted Hillhurst Mansion on a dare, they discover a lot more than they bargain for! The trio find a wild and wacky phasm named Flabber, who changes their lives forever when he grants their wish tobecome the superheroes they’ve read about in BeetleBorgs comics. However, not only does Flabber grant the kids’ wish, but he also accidentally facilitates the escape of supervillain Vexor and his evil gang of Magnavors from the comic book as well! Now it’s up to these three newly tapped superheroes — aided by a friendly neighborhood phasm and armed with fantastic powers and awesome vehicles — to save the world from the forces of darkness that threaten the peace and harmony of all mankind.
Both my kids (ages 5 and 8) enjoyed this DVD. This isn’t a show we watched the first time around, but we definitely got hooked. It is awesome that there are 27 episodes on here too! They definitely will keep you busy for a while! I love that it shows my kids that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
