No doubt about it, you - the dedicated fan of The Man From U.N.C.L.E. - are VERY pleased about the Time Life release of "The Complete Collection", with all four seasons on 41 discs packaged into a sleek attache case (above) and maxed out with loads, and loads, and LOADS of extras! All that for $249.99 and an opportunity for free shipping...that's $6.10 per disc, and the packaging and other hard material (like the 4 eight-page "liner notes" booklets) thrown in for free!
Time Life wants to whet your appetite further by providing a few clips from the show. These .WMV files aren't long, but provide a few good moments that should have you begging for more. Ah ah ah! Nope, you'll have to wait until the set ships on November 27th. But enjoy these for now:
- Solo Introduction
In an iconic moment from the rarely seen color pilot SOLO, Napoleon Solo is introduced in a highly dramatic way, first appearing behind bulletproof glass, then emerging to kill a Thrush operative who has broken into U.N.C.L.E. headquarters.
- Getting Bugged
"What a goodly outside falsehood hath!" Illya discovers a deadly insect in the boutonniere that has just been pinned on Solo's lapel by a Thrush femme fatale in a scene from the first-season episode "The Deadly Games Affair."
- Close Shave!
Solo, Illya and companion Tracey (Dorothy Provine) appear doomed in this scene - set in a lost Egyptian tomb - from Part II of the "Alexander the Greater Affair," which opened the series' second season.
