First Annual Hal Roach Studios Sale Starts Today
06/07/22 by Staff Writer
Today we're kicking off our first annual Hal Roach Studios sale at ClassicFlix.
For the next seven days, you'll be able to get extremely low prices on all our releases produced at the studio from The Little Rascals to The Streamliners to feature films and TV shows.
In addition to the lowest prices ever for our Vol. 3, 4 & 5 of our Little Rascal releases, of particular note are both The Little Rascals - The ClassicFlix Restorations, Volume 1 and Public Defender - The Official Complete Series which are part of the sale. This is noteworthy because:
* Volume 1 is currently out of print, but we received some returns back from our distributor so we have a limited number in stock
* Public Defender was just announced today and is on sale even though it's available for pre-order
The sale ends June 14th at 11:59pm.
NOTE: Because our releases of Roach produced properties will continue to grow, we're hoping this to be an annual sale. Therefore, we are adding it to the other three regular sales throughout the year which are our "Anniversary", "Super Summer" and "Winter Blowout".

Excellent, got 1 of each of the Little Rascals set. Vol 2 thru Vol 5 are on sale at Amazon for $23.91 thru Classicflix themselves with Prime shipping for anyone that has Amazon credit to use. Also got the two other BDs as well to even out the fair $3.99 flat rate shipping (state sales tax still applies)

Didn’t want to wait for the box set collecting all the volumes?

With Classic Flix that may or may not happen, and if it does it could be well after several are OOP (as V1 is currently) before that happens. Once the few copies they got back from distributors are gone you'll be solely reliant on whatever stock may still be in the hands of some vendors or after market sellers.

That said - They *did* re-release Public Defender as a "Complete Series" set after the individual S1 & S2 releases went OOP.

I am gonna take my chances and wait for a complete set.

Hell, I still haven't watched all my Little Rascals/Our Gang on my DVD sets yet. And I have had those for YEARS...ugh...

The owner of ClassicFlix confirmed on another site that they plan to release "The Complete Little Rascals" on BR this fall.

adding this to yet another 2022 decision of mine gone wrong 😊

While I'm curious about the price of that set (and expect it to be quite a bargain) I don't regret purchasing the individual volumes. And I've purchased them shortly after release paying ~$24/each for them. If the all-in-one release of the 2 seasons of Public Defender is any barometer then I'd expect it to sell for roughly half the price of the individual volumes.

With no weekend going by where some one does not remark that my pitbull looks like Petey from ‘The Little Rascals’, the curiosity reached a fever pitch. And with Vol 1 going out of print, didn’t want to chance it.

I don't blame you a bit... When I heard V1 was OOP I was quite pleased I'd already purchased a copy as these films are loooong time favorites (I watched them every day after school as a kid). This makes the 4th time I've purchased them (once on VHS, twice on DVD) - and likely the last (unless I pick up a "Complete Set" as a backup copy) as I just don't see them being improved upon after the spectacular job done by ClassicFlix.
