“Call Me Yo-ker!” doesn’t really have the same ring to it… Sounds like some sort of 90s totally radical interpretation of Humpty Dumpty

And yes, this is a series.

Pioneer Green Letend Ran VHS Box Set. It’s suspiciously LaserDisc sized

Pioneer LaserDisc set. It’s looks identical, except for a tiny LassrDisc logo in the corner instead of VHS

Tonight, on another episode of the incredibly specific series “Can you tell Pioneer designed this box for LaserDiscs instead of VHS?”: The Japanese Tenchi Muyo Box Set www.ebay.com/itm/36515663...

You know, it’s really kind of sad that I just reflexively add quotation marks to any search I make anywhere on the internet (EBay, I’m looking at you), because modern fuzzy matching is so awful.

“As seen on television” Well duh, what else am I supposed to watch my VHS tapes on?

I wonder if "Steven Feldman" ever got the Miyazaki info he was looking for. (Japanese Animation News & Review Issue #4 Vol. 1) archive.org/details/janr...

You know, I knew scholastic has been around for a while, but I don’t think it really hit me until seeing that logo (maybe I’m just too young). Seems it was gone by 1969 at the latest

Compare that with Funi’s release of Empire of Corpses, which used UltraViolet (another dead service) instead. In incredibly tiny print on the back, it says the magic words of “Redemption code subject to expiration”. And guess what? If you redeemed it before then, *you can still watch it!*

I’m not saying CR needs to immediately pull these products, I want them to stay in print! It just feels like there should be a sticker on the front at the very least that says it’s no longer valid. Heck, even a note on the product page would be better than this.
