Ry's Classic Commercial Hut Here I was thinking maybe you scored yours at a flea market or a mom-&-pop movie store. For real, I've looked for a copy of it in those places, but when it became apparent that I couldn't find one there, I resorted to Amazon. And luckily, my search for it was over there.
velociraptor4you Oh no. Even though my boss scored a shitton of screener tapes several years ago. Not sure if this was one of them though. But regardless.
And the actual VHS of Cool World features the following trailers: Bebe's Kids Johnny Suede - Video Spot Cool World on SNES Promo Time Out: The Truth About HIV, AIDS and You [At the end]
In turn, if Paramount had released Arcade in its original form, a potential retail VHS would have likely had the following trailers at the start: Robot Wars Bloodstone: Subspecies II Time Out: The Truth About HIV, AIDS and You
