    Thanks for the heads up! I think this will now be the fourth time I've bought "Bubblegum Crisis". One day I will learn to stop buying "Bubblegum Crisis"... 😅

    Glad you've had some success finding what you're after; I'm not a collector myself but I love reading about it (having grown up with videogames from the early 8-bit era) and did have a Dreamcast myself; "Skies of Arcadia" remains one of my all-time favourite games. I also used to have "Samba de Amigo" for it complete with the maracas, if I still had it I could probably launch my own spaceflight company now if I sold it at current prices... 😅

    Heh, I was just reading an article in "Retro Gamer" magazine, a regular feature where they interview game collectors, and the Dreamcast collector they were talking to said that Japanese DC games were usually cheaper. I also remember years back reading an online article where someone mentioned games hunting in Japan and seeing "stacks" of what were considered rarities in the West at the time like "Radiant Silvergun". There have been several "Panzer Dragoon" games, the impression I get is that everyone everyone wants the RPG "Panzer Dragoon Saga" but I'm not sure how sought after the others in the series are.

    His ghost will never forgive me, but whatever else you say about the 1984 film his take on it has more or less informed the "look" of "Dune" ever since.

    Hikuro, possibly you're thinking of "Panzer Dragoon"?

    Speaking of LaserDisc gaming, possibly the ultimate evolution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxian3:_Project_Dragoon

    I honestly don't know enough about LaserDisc to offer technical advice, but my guess would be as Pioneer were still making them just as DVDs appeared, their players might be the most "modern" and have more of the bells and whistles. I think the thing that gets me most about new tech is I still expect to have some kind of control panel or giant shuttle-wheel thing on the front, rather than everything being controlled by an app or something... 😄 Before this gets too far off the thread topic...!:

    I used to have a Pioneer combo DVD/LD player, back when it was a little uncertain if these new-fangled DVD things would be a success. I loved that machine, though I no longer have it. I did manage to get a couple AnimEigo LDs and LD sets which I still have (the second part of "Kimagure Orange Road", "Rupan III" - yes, "Rupan"! - "The Fuma Conspiracy" and a couple "Urusei Yatsura" movies just because LD packaging was so nice. During my early trips to Japan in the early 2000s there were still lots of LDs around, presumably being sold at bargain prices (this was in the time when everyone was transitioning to DVD but before things like Google Translate were commonplace). If I had the wall-space I've wondered about getting the LDs framed more than once.

    I also only recently found out about CED; I think there was at least one other LaserDisc rival as well but I forget the name now...

    I have to say Jude Laws performance in the latest episode has been a highlight of the series for me.
  12. F-ZeroOne
    Wow, cool! I guess you should just be glad they didn't ask you to the horsebox as well... 😄

    You know you’ve perhaps a bit too far down the aviation fan route when you can recognise an aircraft from a bit of colour on its nose…! 😅
  14. F-ZeroOne
    Wait, top right hand-corner - is that either the X-29 or James Bonds little jet from "Octopussy"...?!
  15. F-ZeroOne
    Thanks for the great pic, like the TSR-2 itself, the YF-23 still looks like its from an alternate timeline... I've never made it to Cosford, though I have been to Duxford though not for some years. I keep meaning to make a return trip but its sort of the wrong side of London to make it straightforward getting there from where I am.
