Totally radical CGI effects!

CGI from the era where everything glowed, looked like a cardboard box, or both.

Of particular note is the "MAGI Synthavision Demo Reel", which contains footage for a tank game I desperately want to play mixed in with footage of an actual Atari game.

Heh--other than the Obligatory 30-second Combat Scene every episode for the toys to interact with, it was a pretty quality show (then again, it was JMS work, so that may be a given. :-) ) I had both jets, the Interlocker throne with the periscope, and..I forget what it was called, but it was basically a little stand that when triggered sent out the 'damage' frequency for a minute or so, then the 'score' frequency after that. Didn't have too many figures (Power himself, Sauron and..can't remember if I got a Dredd with the Interlocker or not.) Saw the 'Power Base' playset in the stores, but never got to play with one.
