Wow -- that is COOL (I guess 100 posts is the magic number!)
Okay -- this is probably a Jeffbert question -- back in the '60's I remember a particular episode where they showed Astro's jet boot collapsing and firing, kind of in slow motion.
It seemed like they were describing some of his powers -- my brother and I were always especially fascinated with the transforming jet boots, so we were blown away to see that -- it went by so fast, and we never saw the episode again. For the life of me, I can't remember the rest of that particular show -- but it seemed like it was in the beginning where they did this "demonstration."
Any chance that anyone out there remembers this/what episode it was? I'd love to see it again (maybe that's the design they used for the beginning of the 2003 series, but I seem to remember the foot "folded together" and was drawn up into the leg (kind of like the arm cannon).
THANKS!

There are 2 occurrences, if I rightly recollect. I need to turn on my desktop to find them, so you must wait.
BTW, you make me feel OLD. If you are a senior member w/ about 100 posts, what does that make me w/ >6000?

Yeah, in more ways than that!!!

I throw out those AARP solicitations, though!

Hi ya, Jeffbert -- here's your reminder.
It's interesting trying to figure out/remember where all the other people who post are living. There seems to be a great deal of activity while I'm asleep!
Evening is falling here on the East Coast of the US (the same Orange County as the infamous Orange County Choppers, and yes, I've met most of them and know people who've know them a long time). I've got to go sing now and will check in later (dress rehearsal for a choral society concert -- I love music too)
Funny, I've been using the Internet for soooo long, but only for work/research. This is the FIRST TIME I've made "web friends" -- I think you guys are GREAT!
