AWESOME NEWS:
So late last night, I decided, on a whim, to finally fix the NHL Overtime VHS.
As it had turned out, what had happened was, the two small plastic pieces that hold the metal spring in place had broken off at some point, and as such, the metal spring was basically unsalvageable. There’s a chance it may have still worked even without that piece, but I refused to take the chance with that.
So, what I did instead was, I did a little bit of tape shell swapping. I put the film for this tape into the shell for my retail VHS copy of “Touched By An Angel: A Christmas Miracle” (which I technically don’t really need anymore, as I now have that awesome screener copy, but I’m still keeping both anyway), and then took the film for that tape and put it into the shell for a spare VHS of “Casper: A Spirited Beginning” that I had. (It was a leftover tape from one of the old Punk Nerd unboxings, as you may remember). And then I put the original lids for both tapes onto the new shells, so that they would still have the original week and year codes. (All 3 tapes used in this experiment had the same design, so the lids were essentially interchangeable).
So now this tape has a completely new shell, and it has been tested and works perfectly! And I still get to keep my “Touched By An Angel: A Christmas Miracle” retail VHS!
Very awesome that I was able to salvage this tape! Even more awesome that I happened to have two other extra tapes with the exact same tape design as this tape, which allowed me to keep the original lid, with the original W&Y code!

Oh, and on a random side note, the 1994 Winter Olympics Figure Skating Competition Highlights VHS, despite being printed in early 94, and having a faded barcode, actually had nothing at the end! Very surprised to see that!

Just checked this tape and yep! Another WB Hits VHS with a ton of blank film at the end! Just as I suspected!

Some sweet sealed VHS Orders!
Two TM Tapes from eBay, (from two separate sellers, despite it being two from the same series), and a Warner Bros. Hits VHS from the Retro Rest Stop store on Mercari!

Hoping and praying that all 3 of these will be clean, and that we don’t end up having a repeat of “Picture Perfect”, or even “All About Cowboys For Kids Part 1”, (the latter of which I still ended up keeping anyway, and it surprisingly played perfectly, despite being molded. And I already explained on what I plan on doing with the former tape)

Fingers crossed that these tapes are clean when I get them! 🤞🫰

Yeah, that was unfortunate to see!
At least the two other FFFF tapes, and all the other really good tapes were all clean! Including the other sealed tapes! (Except for that one NHL tape that had the weird off center metal piece. Hopefully I can fix that one up somehow!)
Thankfully this one isn’t super uncommon. So I’ll probably just look out for a better copy, and then reuse the shell on this tape for something else!

Absolutely amazing “rainy day” haul from my favorite Thrift Store!
(Plus a bonus “surprise” tape that I found at the literal last minute!)

Stay tuned!!!
