Rare and Uncommon Videos

Just a small list of videotapes, DVDs, and laserdiscs I've collected over the years.  Some are rare, some are just uncommon.
Some have probably been officially released, or have been replaced with better verisons, but I'm too lazy to check.

All are of varying quality.

** I am looking for ORIGINAL IRON CHEF episodes!  The ones that are SUBTITLED ONLY,
    and NOT DUBBED!  (They appeared on American television, usually on PBS stations, in the late 1990s
    -before- Food Network started showing them.)  If you have any, I AM INTERESTED, so email me! **
