I am waiting for LAND OF THE GIANTS to street so I can order all three at once (assuming there won't be another announcement). Should I wait beyond tomorrow to order these in the event another jewel is announced?

 

[Peter M Fitzgerald]

I need that WILD WILD WEST set!

Here's a heads-up on a previous La-La Land Records release, from a couple of years ago, that is still available from them. I own it, and it is truly outstanding--

The other sets showcased here were previously released. La-la land is done announcing for the year (their Black Friday announcements, which this year included the Land of the Giants set, plus a Harry Potter/John Williams Collection, expanded Dracula and Schindler’s List, are how they close out the year). I love LLL Records with a passion!

I bet that'll be plenty of great listening from the history of that O-R CBS M:I!

Thanks. Me too. I actually stick money away throughout the year so when great sets like these are announced, I can just get them without angst.

I'm glad this thread got posted. I had no idea. Now I can't wait.

I need that WILD WILD WEST set!

Ditto! Also that JONNY QUEST set...thanks for letting us know about that.

 

[Harry-N]

Call me when they do THE TIME TUNNEL.

 

[Carabimero]

I put MI and WWW in my cart yesterday and thought I would simply order all three once LOTG went live. Problem is, they took MI off sale in the interim, so I only got WWW and LOTG. Hopefully they will put MI back on sale before all the units are sold. But I have learned my lesson. Next time I won't bother with bundle ordering. I would have paid $99 for MI to start with if I hadn't woken up this morning with every reason to believe I'd be paying $79.

All that said, I am excited about the two sets I have coming. And agree with Harry about Time Tunnel.

And so worth the money, it appears from what you're saying!

I'll be all over that Kolchak: The Night Stalker release, at the very least! Thanks for the heads-up, John!

 

[John Karras]

It's too bad that after the buyout, Warner Bros. trashed all of the soundtracks written for Lorimar Productions by the likes of Morton Stevens, Alexander Courage and Arthur Morton.
