Have you ordered it yet? And if so... Did they charge your card right away? Just wondering if they wait until it ships to charge you.

Fair point; I hadn't heard of that before.

Now all the shorts will be available once Vol. 6 (and this) come out.

Anybody else think it's odd that Shorts Vol.3 will be an exclusive, semi-difficult to find one, but "Lost Shorts" will be put in a package and sold in stores?

That is odd. You would think it would be the other way around.

Wonder how long it will be before Poopie II and the Scrapbook tape are included in a DVD set?

The only thing I can think of which might explain it is that 'Hired Pt.1' is on the "Lost Shorts" disc, and 'Hired Pt.2' is available on 'Manos' [which, logically, would mean they should be together ... but putting that sort of logic aside, they want to have 'Hired Pt.1' readily available somewhere].

But that doesn't seem like it'd matter that much.

Thanks, went ahead and ordered it.

Also keep in mind this isn't released until August 31st as it is.

If anyone is wondering what to do with their extra copy of Manos, someone is setting up episode donations to send to the troops at: http://www.mst3kinfo.com/.

Good idea. I ordered the set (even though I would rather see a review...but I'd never be able to wait). At least I know something is on it's way some day. The shows aren't released fast enough for my taste.
Great idea for the Manos discs...though I bet they ask for more. One is not enough.

The new collection should be up for preorder soon. The sale date is Sept. 21st.

Mine came in the mail today (ordered 8/6). The case is a standard size keep case with a hub on each side for the two discs - the "shorts #3" bonus disc was in a paper case inside the keepcase. The bonus disc (along with the insert) is just floating around loose in there, so don't panic if you hear the dreaded "rattle" when you take it out of you mailbox.

No idea, but I just ordered mine.

Per MST3kInfo.com:

And we are receiving a number of reports from folks who ordered Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Essentials (see news item below) through phone or internet orders. The good news is that Rhino has gotten a huge response. The bad news is that if you haven't received yours yet, they are "completely back-ordered," meaning that it may be a couple weeks before they get to you. Those who ordered special "rush" shipping, and haven't got it yet, have been able to call and get that portion of the purchase price refunded.

I still haven't gotten charged for my order. Hopefully it won't take too much longer for Rhino to catch up on the orders.

I'm really hoping the response gets them to continue with these kinds of promos though.

They're now selling, through that same site, an MST3K DVD club membership. It looks as if it's just gonna be sending you each one which has already been released monthly, beginning with "Mitchell" ... but it might be something to keep an eye on, in case they wind up with exclusive stuff.

Got mine a couple days ago. Almost panicked when I didn't see the extra disc, but it was actually shrink-wrapped inside. Oddly it contains a chapter insert, but the 2 discs are on each flap so the insert just falls out.

It looks like a new pressing of Manos which worked out well for me. I previously tried 2 different discs and both would lock up on my player 3/4 of the way through. This new one played through no problem.

So is the "Manos" on the 2 pack the same as the single disc from a couple of years ago? Hopefuly I can get rid of this old version without losing any extras and whatnot.

You aren't kidding. I just watched mine and that was funny stuff. I am very thankful to this site for pointing me to this offer. Those shorts, especially the 3rd, were priceless.

I'm just going to hope that this will reissued at some point.

I can't decide whether to go with Amazon STL or pay $15 more to get the shorts disc. Is it worth it?

Well, I'm in. 30 Bucks is kind of steep, but it sounds like the shorts will be worth it.
