Best Box Set

[SR Junky]

I'm thinking about buying either World or Foundation, and I still haven't even bought the girl/choco one.  Which are the best box sets?

[MexicanSpaniard]

get them all if you can

[blazini]

girl or world... maybe even cliche.

[Edward Penishands]

toy machine box set gets watched a lot by me.  second goes to girl/chocolate

[Duffy]

girl or world...

World is sick, commentary on all videos, lost footy, ads, etc etc.

[The Mess]

they're all sick to have on dvd...case you lost your vhs access like me.
- i'm psyched on the blind deal from last year...video days, tim & henry's, 20 shot bit, etc..
- about to get the world one. that should be a heavy contender.
- then zero and foundation.
- toy machine is good. got that one a few years back.
- plan b set that tony mag put out is rad to have.
i guess all of em.

toy machine is the way to go, I know I'm gonna get hated but that mid nineties slow, sloppy califorina schoolyard skating really isn't my cup of tea...however innovative it was, just hard on the eyes you know?

The best box set would be if the sect made one.

[RRRRRAD]

I was just thinking about this the other day.

[blazini]

i bet the sect will put their old vids in the mind field extras..

[Lumpy Oatmeal]

the girl and world ones are sick......i havent really seen much of the other ones

[blazini]

transworld will probably make one also... like thrasher.. they gonna put like 3 vids on  1 disc or somethin

[MyUserName]

i'd be happy with just a dvd release of photosynthesis.

[SkateTurtle]

zero, girl and world

[Raw!!!]

transworld will probably make one also... like thrasher.. they gonna put like 3 vids on  1 disc or somethin

That would probably be huge and expensive but so worth it.

[skatebored]

I'd pay $100 or maybe a little bit more for a Transworld box set if each video had its own case or mini-case and if it included them all.

Right now Im considering the Zero one.

They're prolly gonna have a hard time getting the music rights for that one

They have that rolling stones song in the intro  and all

plus i think those dudes don't care cuz they were claiming to rerelease memory screen like 5-6 years ago, it was in the catalog and all they just never did it

[barr]

get the girl/choco one
do it
do it now

I liked the New Deal video set that came with the Andy Howell book.  The Plan B box was digitized kinda shitty so some of the night skating looks like ass.  Thrasher set is pretty good and covers a pretty wide time period compared to the others with alot of somewhat obscure Norcal heads.  Girl/Choco set is pretty dope.  FTC Trilogy is pretty good if you can find it.  Foundation one is nicely packaged and pretty good.  I don't own the Zero box so I can't say anything about that one.  I just didn't feel like paying for videos I already own just to have misled youth and thrill of it all.  Also, I already owned all the world vids on dvd thanks to ebay so I didn't feel any compunction to buy the world box either.

[bothersome]

depending on what kind of skating you wanna see, foundation is the most bang for your buck.
thrasher is second.
i have:
thrasher
foundation
cliche
girl/choc
world
cliche
ftc
plan b
h street
blind

I fully support this. I want Mosaic but it's 30usd on dvd. I'd rather spend a hundred and get Memory Screen,TimeCode and Photosynthesis back as well.

Did they ever put out the rest of the videos (Not the New H-Street Video, Lick, Next Generation, etc.)?  I have a bootleg of these videos on dvd from ebay, but I'd still buy these.  Also, since I forgot about the Santa Cruz videos.  The older ones show how skateboarding videos were like before the Mike Ternasky method of video-making started dominating the skate video production style.  I finally realized that Nike was probably trying to go for some kind of Stacy Peralta style of video making (think an updated Ban This) for the Nothing But the Truth vid.  At least that's my take on all the skits.

World is sick, but i'd go with girl.

From what I understand, the H-Street box set contained every H-Street video (including those you mentioned), in addition to A Soldier's Story and Now N Later. It also had something called H-Street: The Story, which I suppose is some kind of documentary.

I'm talking DVD re-release.  I'm aware of the VHS box that had all of those titles (the ebay set I bought were rips from the VHS to DVD).  The quality of the authorized DVD re-release of Shackle me not and Hokus Pokus were some of the best I've seen come from shoulder mounted VHS rocket launcher camera footage and Hi-8 digitized.  I really hope they would bring out the rest of them if they already haven't.
