Oh yeah, I had round playing cards as a kid, fun but a pain after some time.
Not poker approved :lol:

Hey, didn't they have round playing cards in the original Star Trek?

Those cards are great. I’d get them just for the slogan on the box.

Now, who wants to win a trip to 90's Hollywood ? :lol:

While reading through this thread, I remembered that one of my LD had some promotional items in it. The one above is a disc sized flyer advert for a contest to win a trip to Hollywood.
All you had to do was fill in some stuff about how you discovered LD, why do you think it's superior etc...
But also answer some real hard questions on the bottom left like : "who is the director of The Thing ? a)John Boorman b)John Carpenter c)John Wayne"

The second one is a promotional flyer to subscribe to the french magazine "Les Années Laser"

There is nothing really noteworthy about LDs or the magazine on it, it's just that there is a nice and sexy Miss Laserdisc on the back

I just find it funny to have a Laserdisc serves as hat, I'm waiting on a cosplay of her :D

If I can get the pictures to load this should have a couple of pictures of an early PIONEER promo pin badge.

I believe it is from 1984 (perhaps '85) so fairly early & I think quite a cool little item.

Cheers to all.

je280 was kind enough to send me the spare pin badge he found from LDC.

Thank you!

Now if I get these for a reasonable price shipped, I'll work on scanning them for all to enjoy.

It just looks like a sign that advertises the virtues of LD. Kinda crappy really. The label is...weird.

Post subject:  Re: The unofficial Laserdisc promotional item thread

Both the STAR TREK item & the INVITATION TO LaserDisc disc thing are really cool & I would be more than happy to have found & hold on to them.

Happy hunting Julien & it is great to see things like the ones in the pictures have survived, enjoy them :thumbup: .

Cheers

楽しさのランクが違う。絵の出るレコードレーザーディスク。
(A different level of entertainment / Laserdisc Records with pictures)

It actually took me to the Japanese Wikipedia entry for LaserDisc.

Quote:
In the Japanese market, only Pioneer initially manufactured and released LD players, and the catch phrase "Records with pictures" (絵の出るレコード) was used.
