Absolutely! Justin - GA Starbuck - MI AtariBrian - NY NSG - TN Willie - NC CorreaGonzalez - NY Kid A - CA RickR - OR Me - TX Hows this?

All packed and ready, the Junk Box 9 from Outer Space departs tomorrow for the planet Georgia.

A good ole fashioned "User Group". I remember when me and a friend had a Vic-20 user group when we were kids. We basically just shared software on cassettes with each other. Good times!

MaxRD's group is great. Lots of great articles and vids.

Not even sure what I've seen now that I clicked

I'm not a big fan of the mobile servo either, but he made me laugh on Time Travelers when he was pretending to hoist up the rocket. Not so far. I did love the shorts. And I don't really care much for the band, or even the Moon13 set to be honest. It looks like they set it up in a format where they can cut to commercials with Oswalt's synopsis, but on Neflix it just seems odd.

I've been steaming a few episodes on Netflix, and I'm honestly pleasantly surprised. I think we're about to start Ep 6, and here's my pros and cons. Pros: Set is perfect, feels like home. Theme music is perfect. Riffing is still good, this is key of course. Characters are mostly true to form (see cons) A positive change in trying to make sure riffs don't cover movie dialogue. (Yes, some of us do want to keep up with the movie) Crow's new voice is almost spot on. Patton Oswalt Cons: Gypsy. Not digging her voice at all. (also is that an ice chest she puts down at the beginning of the movie and picks up at the end?) Tom Servo isn't familiar to me, and he used to be my favorite. Bringing me to my next point On MST3K I could tell which riffs were coming from which robot and/or host by the nature of the riff. They had definite, distinct personalities. I'm not feeling that yet with this one. Maybe it will come in time. I'm a big fan of Felicia Day, but she wasn't quite won me over as Kinga yet. Lastly, the movie selection hasn't been great so far. Mostly the lower end of average rather than truly horrible. I'm happy it's back, I think it will get even better as they go on. Thoughts?

Thanks for updating us! I like the idea of the super duper chat room

Looks very promising, I loved the original.

That is a sweet deal!

Excellent! This is the order I'll be using unless anyone see's a conflict. Just let me know! Justin - GA Starbuck - MI AtariBrian - NY NSG - TN CorreaGonzalez - NY RickR - OR Kid A - CA Me - TX

A mean looking Russian mascot is what I asked for!

I'm going to try to ship it out Friday, May 12th. That gives the end of the week for anyone else to sign up.

Just got our first artwork from my very talented friend... What do you guys think?

That Joystick looks a lot like the Tron joystick by M-Network. (Not sure who made it for them.) The base looks identical.

So I'm out with a cold and can't hit up a huge list of garage sales today, but the Mrs. is a trooper and hits a couple before she goes into work..... She shoots, she scores! I did manage to snag a complete boxed Colecovision Flashback Dollar General version, and a loose Atari Flashback 2 with controllers yesterday though

Quality. Atari consoles were built pretty tough. Rarely do I find them when they can't be salvaged. However, Wii or XBox360 consoles are already iffy if you find them in the wild. That being said, the Jaguar CD is one of the most unreliable things ever made!

DS is nice and comfy. Nothing wrong with that system at all.

Caught this documentary on Netflix last week. It tells the tale of Compaq's rise to fortune by focusing on their portable units. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4938484/ I quite enjoyed it, and more importantly because of it I learned this happened:

No problem. I was hoping for about 8-10 people, so maybe Monday May 8th?

Great! So far we have: Justin - GA Starbuck - MI AtariBrian - NY NSG - TN CorreaGonzalez - NY Kid A - CA RickR - OR Me - TX Still plenty of time to sign up.
