    Is going to be available to buy on DVD soon, HERE.

    Yes, you read that right.
    Christ, I think a few people here can feel my excitement about the prospects of watching that again after so long!

    [Edit]That's just volume 1 I linked to, there's also Volume 2 and The Complete Box Set.

    Wuhoo! I can be ultra-nerdy for my 2,000th post by pointing out that I always had a problem with this series being called "Dungeons & Dragons" because technically, the Dungeon Master should have said (given the character classes used):"Welcome to the world of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st Edition incorporating the Unearthed Arcana expansion set!" Bit of a mouthful, but he'd have been more accurate, the dozy git.

    Apparently the characters are immortalised in a room in Baldur's Gate as a series of painting, detailing the fact that the characters never got home (as it was in the series).

    I can't believe this is my 2,000th post already. I do have a life. Honest.

    Bah, complete set's not out til September.

    I'm surprised you could get them all on mpeg Logie. I tried to get the M.A.S.K. episodes but nobody had them. Maybe if I ever got DC++ to work properly it might have been a different story.

    You know that other thread on this board about your childhood crush? My childhood crush was Hank the Ranger.

    No wonder I grew up to be the way I am...

    Hank really should've gone for dual-wielding. Nothing like two +5 keen rapiers with improved critical and Bane/Death of enemies feats...

    I think they show Mask on late at nights now...

    But I find M*A*S*K to be a bit rubish these days... that bloody Teebob... always getting into trouble...

    yes... why oh why does every cartoon have to have an annoying character who always gets into trouble...

    I didn't like them when I was a kid, and I don't like them now...

    that stupid knight robot in Jayce
    Nono in Ulysses
    Wheelie in Transformers
    Scooter in Go-bots

    Can anyone think of some more?

    Cities of Gold had that parrot thing.. but it didn't get much screen time..
