2. Sweetness!
I'm surprised that they got Godzilla vs. Megalon on DVD. No one was ever expecting that one to be released. You also forgot to mention that the spiders in The Giant Spider Invasion eat people through what appears to be their butt.

3. Now I know
what I will reluctantly give my SO for Christmas. Our local library has a bunch of old episodes and he's been so freakin' happy about it lately. I don't mind though. It's not like I'm not a geek. :silly:

8. Love the series, but the DVDs are way overpriced
Considering the production budget for the show was like $12 an episode, charging $10 an episode for the DVDs is just plain extortion.

10. When I posted the thread for the Volume 9 DVD set...
...someone replied, stating that BitTorrent was their friend too.
