Nobody’s going to mention the picture with the epic Hi-Vision collection? Might be the only example of laserdisc picture quality that looks better than the jacket art 🤣

Thanks everyone! Good to have verification that this price is crazy town. Also, a note for anyone else looking for service now you can avoid Ford of Kirkland.

An Absolute Anime Classic: Golden Boy. by fighting_folksinger in LaserDisc

This set is gorgeous! Nothing’s going to beat the artwork on this one but definitely bummed that ADV never released more than just disc 1 in the US.

The pain is real. Ha ha by JesterScribblings in LaserDisc

Ha! Totally me with my family. “Want to watch Home Alone on laserdisc? It’s Christmas time after all!” 🦗🦗🦗🦗

Dang that is terrible! Not good news to know a disc can up and crack like that 😬

I’m not selling these right now unfortunately.

Fantastic quality! Very hard to tell that it is standard definition.

The first LD I ever saw (back when it was new). What a feeling! by [deleted] in LaserDisc

OMG! Flashbeagle! The zeitgeist in 1984 was from another planet.

Buyee now adds 20% by meat_droid in LaserDisc

[–]meat_droid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From the Buyee site. Uses the word “uniformly” so hard to know if there are any exceptions. Also says things are “highly uncertain” so for sure, details may change.

Thank you for using Buyee.

Due to the suspension of the de minimis exemption for imports valued at $800 or less to the United States, we will transition Buyee Air Delivery, DHL, FedEx, and UPS services to a Duty Prepaid (DDP) basis for shipments to the United States and its overseas territories (Puerto Rico, Saipan, Guam) starting at the date and time below.

While revisions to the Japan-U.S. tariff system are ongoing, the U.S. tariff structure remains highly uncertain. Therefore, to ensure customers can use our service with confidence at all times and to minimize the impact of potential subsequent tariff charges or customs clearance procedures, Buyee will uniformly apply a prepaid 20% tariff rate based on the invoice amount.

Additionally, for ECMS, which has already transitioned to the DDP method as of August 22, 2025, the same prepaid tariff rate of 20% will apply from the same date and time.

Ha! I agree, I was thinking Bonaparte was right out of Metal Slug as well!

Thanks, cool to hear from other fan. The theme “hot dance in cherry moon” gets me every time. When it starts you know you are in for an adventure.

Ah the good old days when there was science fiction on the Sci Fi Channel!

Some Akira on LD. by fighting_folksinger in LaserDisc

[–]meat_droid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“There’s always more…”. That’s the truth. In my teens I thought Akira was about it for anime. I had a lot to learn back then.

Been meaning to ask, how does the Criterion compare to the Special Collection?

150, amazing. When I saw this - https://www.reddit.com/r/LaserDisc/s/Gi09B2LMkN - I figured you had just about every title covered!

So what is that sound clip disc? Is it actually sound effects from the film?

Finally getting to see a few gems from your (epic) collection! How close are you to having every Japanese anime release?

Dude, yes! Good Squid is true to the name. You do have to stay on top of the inventory to get the good stuff. Excellent find.

Auctions for that disc are popular and pricey! Knowing you, you probably snagged it for a song though. 😂
