Today I met a Craigslist guy at Target and got an AMAZING deal for just $20!!!
35 discs and another player








I'm especially excited about the T2 Box set, that is one of my all-time favourite movies!

Very nice pickup (aside from the Sony LD player )

The Delicate Sound of Thunder is worth that much alone (despite it finally being released on DVD, the DVD is missing a track also DD 2.0 vs PCM stereo.)

And damn! Looney Tunes box!

scored five of the older Bond LBX movies and Il Postino for $1 each at a record store

Playtested Gigan vs. Godzilla for a customer......
Enjoyed it quite much, been a bit since my last Kaiju viewing.

no, you are correct. I hooked-it-up last night and it does NOT work. I really wanted the LDs and it's totally worth it for just them.

I've been too preoccupied to dabble in LD, aside from watching movies. But my interest is back up after scoring this. A sealed one has been totally elusive, let alone a sealed one in decent shape.

Also found some RCA Pro-X44AV (Minimus 7) for a song, so I have a handful of LD set-up stuff to play with.

Just BIN these on eBay:

and

I haven't gotten the invoice yet, but I bet they will be $20 shipped combined.
Did i do good? I like rare stuff, and i think the surfing one is NOT available in any other format. The CLASH OF THE TITANS half of it is available in VHS for about the same on Amazon.com, but not the other half...not that I could find.

UPDATE: I just got my invoice:$19.55 shipped.

I have Starchaser in field sequential 3D on the VHD Video Disc format. While it sucks in 2D, it's pretty watchable in 3D. It has excellent Dolby Stereo sound too.

it's not good? I've never seen it but it had some high ratings online. oh well. The surfing video would have been 13 without it, so it was like $7 more, and I don't recall seeing it before.

Picked up a decent copy of Last Man on Earth. Another good find. There is one on Amazon right now if anybody has wanted to watch/collect it. It's costly but it does look like a super nice copy.

I also bought the old Star Wars WS trilogy and Eyes Without a Face.

Wandered into a used record store out on the Main Line and was surprised to find they had some used LDs as well. Not a whole lot, but some decent titles. Picked up City of Angels, I Know What You Did Last Summer, The Ten Commandments Box Set and this odd demo disc that isn't even in the Db . . .





It's the same program on each side, so it was most likely used to demo a Sony LD player at a store or something.

I just got Laser Casino, a game I didn't even know existed. From the markings, I'd say 3M had something to do with it.


I also got the beautiful WEA pressing of Mad Max 2. WEA was not only the first company to encode their discs with the SuperNTSC process but also to extend the bandwidth of LaserDisc to 5.5MHz - for which they were roundly criticized by clueless consumers and the video press who had their sharpness controls set too high and their sets miscalibrated, making the discs look noisy.

i sold one of those laser casinos last year.
it was cool but i can't keep everything.
did you see the laserbaseball game they advertise inside the box, very cool, never had that one.
i always wanted to get a VHD to see the 3D starchaser but can't see spending the money on that film

Wonder Man (1945) [PSE94-46] came in the mail today. I was surprised and happy to see that it was sealed. Spinning it now and the image quality is very good.

Nice haul. Especially the music ones.

3D VHD is incredible - it just sucks that you need an interlaced CRT set to view it, although I have seen some 3D projectors listed as being field sequential compatible, so maybe that's my hope of seeing my VHD discs again in 3D - as well as my home 3D movies and field sequential 3D DVD's of IMAX films that Slingshot released. I also have test 3D footage from The Incredible Shrinking Woman I'd like to see again.

Oh cool, Screamers has a ws. I was watching Leprechaun 4 today (horrible, "so bad it's good") and it reminded me of how brilliantly Peter Weller plays the smartass in Screamers.
