Weeellll, if you had the Turbo Duo...you could already be playing Macross

Speaking of strange laser disk releases... Has anyone noticed the back
of the Dojinshi magazine? Under the ad of Gametronix LD's, we have
listed:

"Macross - Super Spacefortress (dub)"

Has someone actually bothered to press an LD of this horrible dub?????

Anyone got any info on this?

(I don't want to order it, a friend of mine does. I just want to

        A terrible blow has been struck to the anime world. Yes, it is 
another case of misinformed public opinion of anime. In San Jose, land of 
Nikaku and the first two AnimeExpo's, The Professional: Golgo 13 opened. 
It got a pretty nice review. Then, the short review came next week:

        The Professional     (3 stars)
        
        A Japanese adult adventure cartoon- which means, basically, an 
        hour-and-half of large-scale-teen-age male wish-fulfillment.
        No MPAA rating, could be R for non-stop cartoon violence.

Are we gonna let this stand? Huh? Huh? Huh?
HELL NO!
        for all you anime-activists, the address is:

        San Jose Mercury News

Right!  And when you thought they said "Riker", they were actually
saying "Rikaa", an obvious reference to an as-yet-unreleased episode
of Giant Gor.  Get a clue people, why would they use a reference to
historical figures when they haven't run out of anime references yet?

Cal-Animage Beta recently reprinted an updated copy of Jim Lick's LA

Books Nippan is still outdated.  As of two years ago, they no longer
validate parking at the One Wilshire Building.  Instead, there is an
open lot not too far, westward along 6th, I believe.

Does anyone know which lot this is, so that the change may be made to
the Shopping Guide?

  Speaking of Vison,  Did anyone notice the Drive-in movie in BGC8, wasn't

   I mentioned before that there is an ad on Japanese TV from Japan

   In addition, JAL has also released a pair of travel brochures
featuring the Simpsons in various snow-related activities on the covers,
and throughout the other pages.  Each picture is signed by Matt, and is
copyrighted by Twentieth Century Fox.  There's also some extra
paraphenalia you can get for taking one of the tours (a booklet, and a
"passport emblem" with the Bart-man on it.)
   Looks like Groening is doing pretty well for himself these days.

Other stuff:

   I was wrong in reporting that Hen #1 had come out a few weeks ago.  It was
indeed, as I had been corrected, issue #3.

   The Black Magic: M-66 storyboard book is out.  But, unless you really
like the OAV, or have a passion for the behind the scenes efforts that
go into creating animation, this book is probably ignorable.  The
artwork looks like xeroxed pencils, and nothing really caught my eye as I
scanned the pages.  It is a thick book, and the panels are pretty
readable, though.

   Virtual Jump supposedly came out on the 4th, but I haven't seen a
copy of it ANYWHERE.  At Manga no Mori, the counter clerk kept asking if
I meant "Sunday" Jump, and the guy that she brought out to help me
didn't really have a clue, either.  After going to the magazine racks,
he turned around and said "sold out."  But he didn't really seem to
recognize the title, either.

   I'm not sure what's happening, but the Japanese don't seem to be
throwing out as much of the phonebook manga as they had been up to just
a few weeks ago.  This means that I'm not finding them on the trains, or
in the train stations, now.  Possibly, because it's getting so cold at
night, the homeless people here are grabbing it up before me.  Or,
there's some other competition out there for the "gomi" manga...

Well, I said I'd summarize and post on the issue of mail-ordering a Turbo
Duo... but I didn't get a great deal of response.  Here's what I've been
able to determine.

Chips 'N Bits, at 1-800-753-GAME, was out of stock, not expecting any more
for a couple of weeks.

Turbo Zone, at 1-800-995-9203, supposedly has them in stock, but their
phone-answering hours seem to be pretty limited, so I haven't been able to
contact them.  (Can't call during the hours I'm at work)

Game Dude, at 1-818-764-2442, has them in stock, having "3 or 4 left".
They want $289, which sounds good until you hear that they want another
$40 to ship it to you.  2nd Day Air (UPS), but still... I got an authorization
number from them in case I decided to order.  First couple of people who
ask for the authorization number can have it.  The real reason I didn't
order from them wasn't price, however.  THEY DON'T ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS ON
CONSOLE ORDERS.  They wanted me to send them a personal check (which would
take some time to clear before they'd send the system) or a money order.
I can understand them wanting to play it safe, but that's just too 
inconvenient for someone who wants their system as soon as possible -- you'd
have to wait 3-4 days just to have your check reach them!  Ick.

So I called a random place out of EGM, and....

Game Stuff, at 1-213-724-5733, has them in stock.  No silly authorization
number.  Credit card?  No problem.  They wanted $299, plus $20 shipping
(to ship it the same way Game Dude wanted $40 for, 2nd Day UPS).  That's
still $10 cheaper.  And I didn't have to wait a week for my check to reach
them.  Sold.

	Sorry, I don't think my .sig worked in the last post about
how to get a hold of FSTS/Dragon.  My apologies.
