'''Family Home Entertainment''' (also known as '''F.H.E.''') is an American home video distributor that released a number of [[The Transformers (cartoon)|Generation 1]] episodes on video (both VHS and Beta) during the 1980s, and was also responsible for the first home video release of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.  In addition to ''Transformers'', F.H.E. also released home video collections of other [[Sunbow Productions|Sunbow]] cartoons, including ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]''.

Perhaps the most memorable thing about the F.H.E. video releases was that the back of each box featured a comic strip summarizing the episode rather than a one paragraph plot description.  With the strips being so extremely truncated, their coverage of the episode's plot was sometimes downright ''perplexing'' if the reader had no knowledge of the episode's content ("Why is Ravage mauling that crippled guy?").  They also had a memorable title card for all their video releases, featuring the company's "child's handwriting" logo and an INCREDIBLY LOUD "bwaaaaannnnnnnng" noise followed by a series of tones.
