If
you grew up in the 1970s, then you were a fan of The
Six Million Dollar Man. That’s a scientifically
proven fact. The show that invented bionics and mixed
secret agent action with science fiction shenanigans
starred Lee Majors as Colonel Steve Austin, rebuilt
as a better, stronger and faster cyborg after a jet
crash. The show spawned a popular spin-off (The
Bionic Woman), a fistful of merchandise (including
the small-parts-laden action figures) and saw our
hero battling everything from spies to Bigfoot!
Now,
you can relive those glory days with an insanely huge
complete box set from fabulous Films. The collection
contains all five seasons of the show, the three original
TV movies that spawned it and the three TV movies
that followed it, alongside copious extras (including
crossover episodes of The Bionic Woman,
seventeen featurettes, commentaries and more) in a
gargantuan 40-disc set. Which probably means that
you need a bionic arm just to pick the damned thing
up!
If
you have £199.99 (probably less online) to spare
and what better thing were you going to spend that
money on? Food? then the collection is released
on March 26th.
