A random idea........which came to me after eating my 5th box of Cracker Jack
and 7th Twinkie.............
If someone wants to build a BB item, jet car, bike, studio stage, bus, etc in
whatever scale......why not those of us who are modelbuilders kit bash one by
contributing to that one person whatever parts we may come up with? 
If it turns out really cool, it could be pictured on the website and maybe
auctioned off at a sci fi con for a worthy cause?

**** By the way - best I remember theres some good Jetcar ref photos
on the official site for any kit-bashers out there. - ArcLight ****

Chris-

Do I take this to mean there IS a sequel script on this site? I went looking
and only found the TABB film. What's the title? What should I be looking for?

Sharkey

**** Its there, just hidden pretty well. Check out the Writers on the Net
section and look for one called The Manchu Terror. Obviously its nothing
more than fanfic and has no shot at being made, but its a fun read. Bears
a few similarities to Raftermans script but since theyre both sequels to
the same film, I guess some of that is expected. - ArcLight ****

Imho, ArcLight speak with non-forked tongue:  these are my views exactly.

This is also true of the fabled 'director's cut,' each copy of which is an
nth-generation re-dub of a single 3/4" tape from long, long ago. If that
goes up on the Web for download -- or if even just the "cut" scenes go up
on the Web -- it will not be taking a legitimate nickel out of anyone's
pocket, except Ebay profiteers, for whom I have zero sympathy. 

For the record, *of course* it's not legal. <I'm shocked, shocked! to
discover there's downloading going on!> However, if the TV series goes
forward, or they do a fancy DVD and stick on the extra scenes -- Fox might
care again.

So go for the freebie!  Kill profiteering!  Up the Net!

 Greetings from the Fabulous Florida Keys!. BBI Crazy Horse reporting
in.
 WOW!!! The wednesday chat was the biggest yet. I hope that more of you
will make/find time to make a visit. Even Arclight showed up, and he's a
busy man! Try it, you'll like it!!!!!
 As most of you know by now, Dr. Banzai had to throw the match against
that Jedi in order to lull the red lectroids into a false sence of
security. I hope it works.

**** Hope youre okay down there, CH. Or at least know where your 
water-wings are at. Gotta be getting tired of these storms by now Id
think. - ArcLight ****

BBI Abacus here,
In Dragon's absence I am sending in his weekly post because I know he
would have wanted me to. Before he went to Chicago to meet with Siam
Candiru to engage in truce talks between the Blue Blazes and the
Zhaolong, he had nearly finished his post. So, I'll put a few finishing
touches on it and send it off to ArcLight. If you have somehow missed
the events of the last week and a half you can go to the Official BB
site and catch up. All the posts are on the Bunk House Wall starting
with Wednesday, October 06, 1999 at 08:39:21 (PDT).

Wednesday's GABB set a new record of 9 attendees all at once! It was a
very lively chat with many veterans in full color. Many came by for only
a half hour or so to say hello. Those that qualified for the drawing
that hadn't from a previous Gabb were "Pam" and Lady Rhian. Saturday
morning's GABB was again less attended but "Ed"  qualified. BBI Sabre,
Texas, Riptide, Dragonstears, Crazy Horse and Gumball qualified from the
previous week.
The names are tossed into a hat and the winner is: BBI Texas!!!
Please contact us privately with your mailing address so that we can
send off your prize, the Jet Car Illusion toy or the two part Marvel BB
comic, your choice.

The GABBs will continue in BBI Dragon's absence, same time, same place.
We will be at: http://home.talkcity.com/

Wednesday October 20th, evening 6 PM PST/9 PM EST
and,
Saturday October 23rd, morning 9 AM PST/12 PM EST

The usual details can be found in past issues of this newsletter.

BBI BanzaiSGI, when you get any of those BB models finished, a Jet Car,
motorcycle, motor coach or jet, please take some pictures and send them
off or scan them, they would make a great addition to "team-banzai.net",
believe it!

Always True Blue,
