Hi all,

So, has anyone has received their A&E UFO DVD megaset yet? I'm curious
what the new individual volume cover art is like...

Patience, Marc. Patience.

I received my UFO Megaset today from A&E along with Space 1999 Disk 9
from Netflix. It's a Fanderson weekend at TheLynx's house.

While this may seem mundane to many folks here, for the first time in
nearly 35 years, I can watch UFO whenever I want. I just think that's
pretty f'n cool.

To top it all off, I passed my motocycle safety course today and now
have a Pennsylvania Class M license.

Alright, Marc. For the goodies. I've scanned all the outer box covers
plus the covers from Disk 1. I didn't put a webpage together, but you
can see the scans at the following link:

Slow ride. Take it easy...

Thanks!

So it appears they didn't do much extra work on the disc covers -- that is,
it sounds like the first 4 volumes have the same artwork, then the second 4
volumes have the same artwork?

Correct. I will get around to scanning all eight in the not-too-
distant future and advise when online.

Has anyone recieved the second Italian box set yet ? I'm curious to
know how it is presented and what it includes. The Deluxe Set 1 was
superb. From info dispalyed at dvd.it the second box look a little
more mundane, although it is some what cheaper.

Has any one any firmed up details of the second Japan box set ?
Considering how neat the LD sets were the Jap DVD set was
dissapointing.

Just curious to find out some info.

Great!

One thing I still don't understand...

You've got a scan called boxfront1.jpg, and then another scan called
boxfront2.jpg. I don't understand how a single box could have 2 different
fronts?

Could it be the "ends" of the box?

The web site has been polished - looks nice Bob!

Looks like A&E put some effort into this MegaSet release - too bad they didn't
do that originally.

I don't know why I felt that they should be called "fronts". They're
actually the sides of the box so I've changed the names to protect
the innocent.

Thanks for pointing this out.
