Gentlemen,thankyou for your comments.But my question was,has anyone made copies of their DVD's of UFO,which
I think you,ve all answered in aroundabout way.

To buy the whole set again would cost £80.00.As I have purchased a new computer within the last 6 months (which included a DVD burner) I took the step of backing up my original's.
Each of the DVD-R disks cost £1.00.
So,overall I,ve spent £16 to backup the whole set.

As I,m aware that there is a particular sensitivity in respect of copying copyright materials,I thought I,d put the question
in the form that I did just in case anyone wanted to know how.
I also think irreplaceable is the right word.I've got 3 original disks (not UFO) that for some reason or other will no longer
play in my computer or on my DVD player.One of these is no longer available.

Paul Foster Figure Kit

lunadude2001 <russell_smith@ntlworld.com>
Browsing the Comet Miniature site, I noticed they are advertising a
Paul Foster figure kit, from the one image they have posted it looks
OK. £50 seems to be the going rate for these type of kits.

They are also advertising a set of three Gay Ellis figures for £50.
I also noticed they have substantially reduced the price of the
Ashomia Moonbase kit. So it might be worth a visit
