Well, well, a plethora of happy five-star reviews up on Amazon this morning (except for the one-star review by the poster who has never reviewed anything before and seems to have little or no past record who simply says "does not work", what, his brain? Probably one of the cine-whiners trying to cause trouble, one of their ilk has been attempting to trash Paul and the set on Facebook but what else can one expect from them, certainly not quality work of their own, if they created more of that and less bullshit, someone might be impressed).

As the Associate Producer of STOOGE-O-RAMA (they have to pay me a royalty for the name after WEISS-O-RAMA), I say this is a fabulous set, and very few seem to be disagreeing, if ya ain't got it yet, what's stopping you?
