has anyone bugged you for having such an Astro boy obession

I bought the Supercar dvd box set.

OMG!! I'd like to see that again, actually. (but not until I have all my Astro episodes!)

Hmmm I remember actually scaring my little brother once claiming that the various high tension and microwave towers around our area were actually letting Mike Mercury know where he was, and that if he didn't behave, Supercar was going to fly down and MM was going to take him away. Actually that's not funny, now that I think about it! Sorry Paul!!

I was also thinking of getting the Fireball XL5 set, but I really want to get the complete set of the '63 AB from right stuff', especially if I can find it on sale somewhere. The J.A. series were rather reasonable in price.

If you check on Ebay you might be able to find a much better price than retail. My partner bought the entire two ultra-box sets from two separate sellers on ebay for much less than what RS wanted. Granted, it's worth the retail asking price hands down, but when you're looking for a deal I'd try ebay. I think my partner found each set for about $60, a total of around $120. I know a lot of people are hesitant about ebay, but we've never once had a problem so long as the seller rating is high in the 99%.

That is very good to know, Earthshine. Maybe someday...

I thought of another project for a real devoted fan with seamstress talents. How about making a full size Astro 'body pillow' to cuddle up with on those cold winter nights? (Or a Uran or Cobalt one for that matter)

NOTE: According to Webster's, the word 'seamstress' implies a female doing the sewing, I wonder if there is a gender neutral version of the word.

If I could sew I would have like twenty of those (with different characters of course). I love body pillows. *u*

[Little Brown Fox]

I dunno. Seems just a little bit creepy to me. Would it be an actual pillow, or just a giant stuffy?

[Juanita]

I think I can see where your coming from...
For me, it'd be an actual pillow so I could actually sleep on it when I go to bed.
