Dude, does it come with a nickel bag in each box set?

Sweet! That's a must-have ... y'know, somewhere I have a picture of my mom dressed up as Witchiepoo for Hallowe'en back in '69 or '70 or thereabouts. Scary part was that she had the act down perfectly... :)

What does it say about me that I was majorly addicted to those shows when I was a kid. Wonder whatever happened to Jack Wild?

I'mmm... A... Me... Chanical Boy... Like A Me-Chanical Toy....

According to WEHT.net (http://www.weht.net/WEHT/Jack_Wild.html) ("What Ever Happened To...?"), he went through a standard-issue child-star decline of depression and drug & alcohol abuse. He finally kicked that, got married, and started rebuilding his acting career. Played Much the Miller's Son in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. Newest film is a bit part in Moussaka & Chips (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0451130/). Lost his voicebox to cancer in Oct. 2004.

Yee Hah!! Though I msut admit, I already own HR Pufnstuf on video... I was weak. But can't wait for the rest! Oh happy childhood memories.

Watching Sigmund and the Sea Monsers is one of my earliest memories; I loved that show, though I remember very little about it (I was about 3 when it was broadcast). Ditto Land of the Lost. Gotta get that DVD.
