Wow, these guys aren't exactly internet wizards (yet they DO have a website).

Do you think anyone has told them yet? [Big Grin]

OMFG... [Big Grin]

For Allison, the first disc is "Mikadroid" a 1991 Toho Studios direct-to-video release. The irresistible full English title is Mikadroid: Robokill Beneath Discoclub Layla. It got a "skip it" rating from DVD Talk. [Smile]

The second disc is one of five in a 1980 NHK documentary series titled Ningen wa Nani o Tsukuttekita ka? {What Has Man Created?). This one is Fune (Ships). The other titles in that series: Steam Locomotives, Automobiles, Airplanes, Rockets.

Paul,

Thank you so much for the translations! I picked those up for cheap and don't have a LD player (yet) to play them on.

That's probably a good opportunity to plug the Engrish.com web site.

ALlison: Being Japanese titles, I'd pop those two on eBone, for there are LD collectors out there that would fight over rare import titles.

I've done pretty good selling LD's on eBone with the diehard LD collectors out there who still enjoy seeing uncompressed FM analog video than the compressed MPEG form that DVD's uses.

Also, nice thing about LD's is that they are completely open for copying since no worry on the region nonsense or any form of copyguard is encoded on the discs..

Monte, I will one of these days. There's a ton that I have that are either Japanese imports, or movies that I think I can get more than $20 for (like the 80's rerelease of Metropolis). In this large collection I bought, I got 3 laserdisc arcade games as well: Firefox, Cliffhanger and Albraegas/Cybernaut. Dragon's Lair unfortunatly was not in that collection. I have a Tex Avery sealed LD box set up on ebay now. I put a reserve of $90 on it... [Cool]

Ever have any of your LD with 'laser rot'?

Be careful Allison... Monte's like that record store guy on Seinfeld... You round up all your valualable Laserdisks and then he only offers you 50 cents each..... [Eek!] . In reality he's the collector.

I've had a couple of mine rot within just a few years. Fortunately those titles look pretty good on DVD, so no great loss content wise.

Haven't played many of mine in the last few years - I assume most of them are still fine. The last LD I played was during a talk I gave last year about anime as yet another Japanese pop-culture export. The disc was Hayao Miyazaki's only music video, the 1995 On Your Mark for the singing duo Chage & Aska. At the time, On Your Mark hadn't yet been released on DVD, hence the use of LD for playback.
