Title: Turbo Duo Cap Replacement and Video Mod
Post by: Jared4781 on 02/24/2016, 08:07 PM
The time has come for me to have all the caps replaced on my US Duo and while that's being done I'd like to have a video mod done for at least S-Video or Component. Who is doing these now and has a good rep? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Keith Courage if you're in USA.  I am guessing you are in USA because USA Duo is rare outside USA.

"Mr. Courage? Mr. Courage! Telephone for Mr. Courage!"

Pee Wee's Big Adventure!  But I always got the feeling it was in turn referencing something else I didn't know about.

GI Joe cartoon. Very beginning of the episode. What's funny is I can't remember which character has the last name "Courage"...

Ha! I haven't seen PeeWee Herman in a long, long time.

Also: Because I am OCD, I have been trying to figure out which episode of GI Joe opens with those lines from earlier...

I might buy the damn episodes just to figure this out!

You know, it's actually a well-made movie!  I watched it again a little bit ago and it was a much tighter movie than I remembered it being.  No comment on the sequels, though.  I watched some G.I. Joe, I remember the multi-part episode where Serpentor gets created or summoned or whatever, and the (animated) movie which I think I have on DVD around here somewhere.. wasn't the biggest fan of the toys growing up, but I always thought those robot suits they got inside of were awesome.  Don't know nearly enough to recall a quote like the one above.

Our favorites in my group are those awkward "knowing is half the battle" segments.  Particularly the ones where the guy just pops up staring through the bathroom window at the kids to tell them not mess around in the medicine cabinet, or the one where the scuba guy just pops from under the water to inform a boat full of a shirtless boys of some safety thing or other... or the one where the kids just yell "SNOWJOB!"  Why wouldn't you name your G.I. Joe that?  It's awesome.
