So I made a very wise financial move and invested time. Money. Sanity.

...in these: (seller photos)

However I fear my investment is incomplete! It was quite a coup actually. I missed the original auction deadline and was able to contact the seller and ask them to relist it in the hopes I would win. They relisted it. I was the only person on the planet stupid enough to bid and now they are ALL MINE. :D

Except...something is missing. LDDB states that there are FOUR volumes to the NKOTB Visual Box series of discs. Yet I can find absolutely nothing on volume 4. Not even on Discogs or anything like that. Does it actually exist? Was it cancelled?

New Kids on the Block: Visual Box vol.4 [SRLM 829]

Please someone help. :cry:

A quick aside. In the USA there was a Newkidzondamuthafookinblock VHS Super Box. It comprised 3 VHS cassettes and 2 audio CD's.

However, if that is a Super Box, it's missing a lot of stuff. The 3 volumes on Laserdisc are more complete, even with the fabled John Harrison H6 'lesser' Volume 4 Laserdisc still missing!

The plot thickens!

Will need a review of these when you get them.

I have found after my last JP haul that there are a lot of typos or too many added JP LDs here in the database.
If Giannis actually owns one then OK but it wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't made.

I just picked up the last zillion disc I was missing but its the same as another listed but a few numbers different or change or missing.
here are 2 examples:

It Don't Pay to Be an Honest Citizen (1984) [ML0005]
It Don't Pay to Be an Honest Citizen (1984) [ML88-0005]


This was interesting, I just picked up one and the reference number is: 70058-78 and listed here on lddb is: VPLY-70058
Zillion: Master collection [VPLY-70058]

I'm now wondering if there are 5 volumes as there was only 15 episodes made. 9 of them are on these discs. 12 if volume 4 exists. Maybe volume 5 was cancelled?

Also the episodes don't run in order across the discs. It's a bit more like a best collection than a full box set, unless volume 5 exists.

Would you please update the database here with the cover pictures?

Every cover counts.

:o :o :o

Σε αγαπώ! I MUST HAVE IT. :o


...also this means there must be a Volume 5. Either released or cancelled, as there was only 15 episodes made.

I come armed with some interesting NEWKIDZONDAMUTHAFOOKINBLOCK news!

Here's a snap I took from the insert sheet of Visual Box Volume 3. Some other NKOTMFB titles are featured in a small catalogue section. Now look at the serial numbers.

See anything interesting?

Yes that's right, NEWKIDZONDAMUTHAFOOKINBLOCK cartoons were released on Laserdisc, VHS and Betamax. But Visual Box Volume 2 was also released on 8mm!!!! Good luck finding that! It's the only one released on 8mm too. I doubt any copies exist but it's on my watch list. Here's a photo I took to prove it (also Julien, I am in the middle of updating all the NKOTMFB titles and didn't add the Betamax and VHS numbers to the title notes, I'll do the 8mm one when I update Volume 2). :thumbup:

The quest for Volume 4 continues, and also the confirmation of if Volume 5 was ever made to finish off the collection. :crazy:

EDIT: Closest thing I've found is a very rare Hi8 release of some of their music (the same title is on LD, it's on the LD Volume 1 catalogue page). Not the cartoons alas. It could be that the cartoon is also on Hi8 but may be in time to have a Super 8 release? Looking at this Hi8 image my thoughts turn to the cartoons also being on Hi8.
