Gentlemen! Start your Chromacolors (or XL-100s & Quasars)!

Episodes 12-23 of the awesome greatness known as Speed Racer is coming out tomorrow!:) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

I got my copy pre-ordered and I cannot wait.

Much of my childhood was spent in front of my parents' XL-100, friend's Zenith, or cousin's Motorola Quasar (yes, I got to watch all three) watching, no, experiencing Speed Racer.

Go Speed Racer, Go!

The titles are all centered and all action is in center screen, so yes, it looks great on a roundie!:D

Can't say I was ever into Speed Racer but I am happy for you anyway :D

I'm looking forward to the 2nd season (a color season) of Lost in Space, coming out in Sept!

It's out and I got it. Spent all day last Sunday watching the whole thing... So cheesy yet so awesome!

My fave episodes are on this disc. The Fire Race and The World's Fastest Car.

"OOhhh.. the speed is taking me into another dimension!"

The full season DVD box set is the best thing since TV!

Speed Racer Enterprises did put out the complete season box set but discontinued it. There's lots of bootlegs out there but the real thing is quite rare.

I really wish Nickelodeon/Viacom/MTV or whoever they are would put out a complete box set of Ren & Stimpy... The ORIGINAL UNEDITED versions mind you.

OK, here's my office top 5 list:

1. Ren & Stimpy (I want this on DVD now!:mad:
2. Speed Racer (Got some of it on DVD)
3. Beavis & Butthead (Got the Time-Life set)
4. Bugs Bunny (need it)
5. The Jetsons (getting it soon)

... and a vintage TV to watch it on.
