Anyone see any non-DVD bootlegs of the show? I have. They're REALLY rare.

On eBay, they're selling Christmas ornaments of the gang and Miss Finster. I would buy them for Christmas, but...they're actually just the McDonald's toys with a little ornament hanger hoop on their backs. Not authorized by Disney at all, and the even have the (C)Mfg for McDonald's Corp. on the back of the toys.

A few months ago, I was at a flea market, and I saw a pack of bootleg Recess toys. They were the McDonald's figures, but repainted, and somehow the copyright on the back is gone. The set was called "Schooltime Friends", and it included:

* T.J. Detweiler (His jacket was painted so that there was a big white space in the middle to represent his shirt, since the toy had it's jacket zipped up)
* Vince LaSalle
* Spinelli (Red stripes were painted onto her tights to be more on-model, but the paint job whomped)
* Gretchen Grundler (An effort was made to paint her sleeves white and her dress bow pink, but the paint job was really bad, and peeling)
* Mikey Blumberg
* Gus Griswald
* Miss Finster
* Esmerelda (From The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

...Esmerelda?

Anyway, we went to said flea market last month, and someone must've bought them.

I know we've been friends forever
But now I think I'm feeling something totally new
And after all this time, you've opened up my eyes
Now I see you were always with me
Could it be you and I never imagined?
Could it be, suddenly, I'm falling for you?
Could it be you were right here beside me
And I never knew.
Could it be that it's true that it's you? ♥

That's just cheap!

And I never knew that Esmerelda was a member of Third Street School....

She must go there to hide from Frollo.

I'd personally like Disney to release a new set of Recess figurines for us. How about a gifts set that includes the show on DVD and figurines? That'd be awesome and I'd buy it on the spot.

RECESS and all related titles are copyright of The Walt Disney Company. I am just a fan, and I'm not making any money off of this.
