Almost caught up on the MST3K Sets

[lildude8218]

I just got my package from Deep Discount this morning containing Volume 4 and 14 (couldn't really afford to pick up 15 at this time even though I was saving 25% off my order.)

I don't think I've ever seen any of these episodes actually except for Manhunt in Space (on Volume 14.) Season 4 is nothing but Sci-Fi era episodes (Girl in Gold Boots, Hamlet, Overdrawn at the Memory Bank, and Space Mutiny) and while I was a fan of the show at the time, I somehow always missed episodes when they aired and seemed to only catch the same ones in repeat all the time. Volume 14 has an episode that aired before I got into the show (Mad Monster didn't really show up in reruns often) and 2 more from the Sci-Fi era (Soultaker and Final Justice)

Now I just need to get Volume 15 before another 3 sets come out.


*Edit*

Oh no, I just found out Volume 16 comes out on December 1st with:

The Corpse Vanishes
Warrior of the Lost World
Santa Claus
Night of the Blood Beast

I'm a MST3K DVD addict; I have all the box sets, most of the stand-alone DVD's (awful prices for single movies given what the box sets cost, but, c'mon, I HAD to have Mitchell and Manos!), and now I've even gotten the Film Crew DVD's.

I'm not obsessive about running and buying many things right away, but I end up like a bloodhound once I hear a new set is out.

[AriadosMan]

I want the set with Warrior and Santa Claus over the current no. 15 set



AAAAAWWWWWW OOOOOOO DDDDDDDAAAAAA PPPPPPPEEEEEEOOOOOOOO IIIIIIINNNNNNN DDDDDDDDDAAAAAA WWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOAAAAHHHHH

You're aware they're now starting to release RiffTrax DVDs of some rather famous bad, and even not so bad, movies (2 Shorts DVDs, Plan 9, the original Little Shop of Horrors and Night of the Living Dead)

I just found out about this a couple of days ago. I haven't gotten any RiffTrax yet (though some trailers I watched were great) and I plan on getting some of these from Amazon soon.

Must I feel bad when I intend to buy the DVD sets and Standalones in the long run...along with the rest from Cheepflix.com? (Since the chance is zero that full season sets will appear in the far and near future?)

I possess now the full KTMA und the first two comedy central one and I now begin to attack Season 3 with my purchase of Vol. 3.

I've already bought a lot of those as Video on Demand from the site, but I'll still end up keeping tabs on it.

I'm also looking at buying some Cinematic Titanic.

I haven't even begun to buy the stand alone DVDs. I was always worried that they would wind up throwing them into a future boxed set and I'd wind up with doubles. I should start working on that soon I suppose.

I believe I am only missing Volume 9

[BoilerRoomBrawler]

I have yet to begin.

The day that it was announced that it was going out of print, I went to the mall, Best Buy, AND Circuit City to try and find a copy. Then I drove an extra 10 miles out of my way to another mall and in the very last store I checked they had one last copy that I spent $59.99 plus tax on cuz I knew it would be over $100 on eBay shortly afterwards.

[robferatu]

I have them all except for Volume XV, that includes both versions of volume 10. Anyways, I'm usually pretty good about pre-ordering them months in advance, but Volume XV kind of slipped by me.

I'll probably order with a few others things I've been planning to get from Amazon this weekend.

[mattperiolat]

I'm another poor guy who missed Vol. 9. Was lucky and got Vol. 10, but my collection REALLY is weak:

VHS of Amazing Colossal Man
All single DVDs except Manos.
Vol. 1, 2, 10, and 20th Anniversary, plus Giant Gila Monster.

[lildude8218]

Apparently Volume XVI is going to have a limited edition version which comes with a Servo figurine. so now your Crow figure from the 20th anniversary set won't be lonely

[Cry Me a Wiggle]

Is it weird that I want an Observer/Brain Guy figure most of all?

Anyway, I only buy sets that are packed with episodes that interest me. The last I bought was the 20th anniversary tin, since it had two Sci-Fi episodes and Laserblast. I'm not too worried about getting all of the sets, because the obsessive compulsive in me hates that the sets make the episodes out of chronological order on my DVD shelf.

Actually, I may just stick to the Shout releases, since they have the nice slimcase packaging for each individual disc. That way, I can technically order them any way I want.

I wish Shout Factory would go ahead and re-release the Rhino Box Sets that way we'd have Volume 9 at a better price then what's on eBay right now.
