So, I found this set at a garage sale over the weekend, and I was wondering if you guys could help me out with any information on it. I've done a little bit of research on it, would this have been used on the Toys R Us kiosks? Does anybody know what games are previewed on these particular discs? What is a kit like this worth? Thanks all for any help!

Yea, I have seen these before. I think there was one at one of the stores at the mall back in the 90's. It let you watch video previews of upcoming games. It was at a big station. I never saw inside of it, but this must be what went inside it to make it all work.

I'm not much of a disc based collector, but I would love to have that LaserDisc, if not to see what is all on there.

I'm working on finding a way to record them off of the laserdiscs onto a DVD or something, I'll keep you informed on what happens.

When you say DVD or something I hope you mean or YouTube Don't forget to post the link here! I'm sure someone here would be able to help you out if you wanted to release the video from the laser disks.
