A lot is gone, for sure. But not all. Here's Lynda Carter in the swim relay.

I have a very hazy memory of the cast of ElectraWoman & DynaGirl competing in a show called (I think) "All-Star Anything Goes." It was aired in 1977. The show was a lame version of Wipeout/American Ninja with tasks that were more wacky and off-beat than difficult. I think there were a ...

Really well done! Thanks for sharing!

Quoting somebody probably famous, "How can we miss you if you won't go away?"

I suppose our infatuation with superheroines is as individual as we are. Here's mine. Superheroines are the combination of (1) really hot women in (2) sexy outfits and (3) boots. They (4) willfully insert themselves in danger, which hopefully results in them (5) getting knocked out and (6) becoming ...

Christine, Greetings from the fan who made your ElectraComps. I agree with the consensus of Cherie DeVile as EW, but I'll also throw Candle Boxxx into the discussion. She actually played the role, and did quite well, in MagnaWoman and DigitalGirl for heroinepower.com. (I think the modified the costu...

Tiffany, I'm glad you're back and, more importantly, you're in a good place. It's big-hearted of you to forgive and move forward. I'd like to echo YetiTaz's comments about your ability to muster dignity while being pummeled. To me, a superheroine's spirit in unconquerable, though her body may be. I'...

I vote for ElectraWoman too!

Tallyho, I'm with you on Daggerfan's grading method. Daggerfan's method allows for emphasis for those elements that matter to some and discount those that don't.

I've been using prepaid credit cards to purchase videos online so that my wife doesn't know what I'm doing. (No bills.) My experience has been generally good. I've been able to buy videos from sites that insist prepaid cards don't work. I usually bought a card for $300 cash, which would last me seve...

I think I recall her writing some time ago that she was only going to continue "modeling", whatever that meant, for a limited period of time. I think it was until she finished grad school. I'm sad to see her retire, but good for her. Say, the photo of her in the white outfit, what is that ...

In a former life, I worked at as a computer tech at an intellectual property law firm. Intellectual property is mostly patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. In the course of working there, I learned enough about IP to be dangerous. Danger time: It seems to me that if you're making a vi...

I'd like to take this opportunity to give a big thumbs up to Ed at heroineperil.com for producing my custom. He shot it with Niki Lee Young, who's quite hot. They accommodated me with the costume to the point where they discouraged me from using the one I send because, unbeknownst to me, it was much...

I live in Northern Virginia. We've gotten clobbered with about 16" and counting. I've shoveled twice and expect to go this afternoon and tomorrow morning. Tomorrow I'll also try out my snow rake for the first time to clear off the roof. But when I'm inside and resting, I've been attacking a pro...

I wrote and asked when the next episode of Scarlet Scorpion was due to be released. He posted photos of the shoot, and it looked promising.

That was maybe a year ago now. I agree about the owner's likely retirement.

Avenger is right: ElectraWoman!

I too was saddened to hear the news of Yvonne's passing. I know I'm not alone in having her as my first superheroine crush. I was heartened, though, because in interviews she seemed like a down-to-earth person with a deprecating sense of humor. When the Michael Keaton Batman movie came out, she said...

I bought both Black Widows and was very pleased with both. The bad guys are typical Bluestone bad guys: they're one-dimensional luddites who get pounded early but relentlessly come back and eventually wear her down. What makes both videos is Claire. She displays a wide range of emotions -- sassy, co...

On second thought, why choose?

I concur. Lots of variety involving different element. All were done very well. Well worth the buy.

Thigh high boots for my viewing pleasure, please.

Good questions, and a very good topic that is bound to generate a variety of tastes and preferences....for me, the season 2/3 Wonder Woman costume is a good start, but I would have preferred Lynda's bare legs and a higher cut on the bottoms; the hip and butt area was too covered. Other than that, I...

There was that one from the Adam West series of the 1960's where Batgirl (played by Yvonne Craig) had to dance while cossacks swung swords at her. Craig was a trained dancer, so it was a way to show off her dancing skills. By the end of the sequence, Batgirl was winded and exhausted, just as Batman ...

I like Lee Merriweather and Anne Hathaway, but loved Julie Newmar. I read somewhere she was cast as Catwoman at the last minute. She was in NY and insulted that she was offered the role on Thursday and, if she accepted, she had to be in LA by Monday. Her brother, who was visiting from Harvard when s...

Happy to help, Doc!

Returning to the dart idea, it occurred to me today you could use paper clips beneath the costumes to secure the magnetic darts.

tamonicus

Sorry to be late to the conversation. On the dart matter, I have a suggestion. Get two sets of darts: a real one -- like shown below, and one with a flat magnetic tip. Both darts must look roughly the same. You may be able to transfer the flights between the sets of darts. http://www.dartswarehouse....

@avenger, it's a stand alone. And it follows the original EW&DG story pretty faithfully.

tamonicus

I liked Red Vixen for the exact reason she didn't work for jlocke -- her costume was plain. I've always been a sucker for shiny metallic costumes. They accentuate the curves. I know I'm an EW & DG freak and endorsed that earlier. But getting a couple of actresses to sync their schedules must be ...

Electra Woman and Dyna Girl done in a more 'serious' tone and with Batman tv perils/death traps but without the camp and craziness.....if it wasn't such a guitar addict I'd be sending money towards this project, but I wholeheartedly wish this endeavor well and with much success! I echo very much wh...

A little over a year ago, Christina and I made a deal. Sadly, not that kind. She asked if anyone could make her a couple of ElectraComps for her ElectraWoman and DynaGirl characters. I offered to, and she agreed to grant me one year's access to her site, ChristinaBound.com, and the first video using...

I couldn't agree more.

Just had a thought on breakaway props: How about using large pieces of styrofoam cut to shape? If you can get them from appliance or furniture stores, they'll be plentiful and free. No broken shards to worry about. You could even cut a slit In the foam opposite where she gets conked to create the br...

Make a video with a hot superheroine in spandex and boots (not platforms) and knock her out a time or three. Price it reasonably and chances are, you'll be getting my money.

tamonicus

I have two answers for this question. I buy based largely on what I see. Namely, I look for a superheroine who appeals to me, a costume I like, good videography, and at least some believability in the acting. But what makes a video memorable is a solid and cohesive story, one that makes sense. The m...

Guess I should have applied myself in junior high art class. Sigh.

tamonicus

Oops. I was too quick in making my choice. I think I should have selected "heroine 3rd person" instead of "witness 3rd person".

tamonicus

Here's my two cents. I'm fine with masks, I'm fine without masks. What I'm not fine with are masks that distract from the superheroine. Some look like they were purchased at CVS on the way to the shoot, an obviously paper version of what Van Williams and Bruce Lee wore in the Green Hornet. That's on...

I just discovered that New Goddess (www.new-goddess.com) is providing access to all of its superheroine movies for $10 for the holidays. No expiration date is given, but I don't recommend dawdling. I was able to get a few movies that I wanted at a pretty sweet price. Also, many of the movies have be...

1.) The single ending / multiple endings don't make much difference to me. I typically buy both of NGC's endings. I watch the heroine loses more often, but also enjoy the winning version if she shows off her hot bod. 2.) Death is a deal killer for me. KOs or the like only. 3.) I prefer not knowing t...

I gravitate to human superheroines and really appreciate the creativity of a KO from something other than gas, chloro, or a conk on the head. Among my favorites are ElectraWoman getting disoriented from the vibrations of a gong strike (Ali Baba), ElectraWoman flattened by a laser (Ali Baba) , and El...

korda: I have ordered a few customs over the years and never had any serious problems, just delays on the part of producers. Exposing your customers is the same as committing business suicide. Kithos is right about saying she's retired. She's just put herself out of business with this shit. My advic...

Really, really looking forward to the release. I'm very excited. BTW, I don't think there's any fear of legal issues concerning the names "ElectraWoman and DynaGirl". In a former life, I worked for a patent & trademark law firm. To do a trademark search, check TESS at uspto.gov or foll...

There's something so right with ElectraWoman on ABC, where Krofft Supershow was originally broadcast all those years ago. Too bad there wasn't a fight between ElectraWoman & Catwoman.

tamonicus

I totally agree. I guess they do this because it's a) It's very easy to get a good WW costume b) The character is so popular I see where you're coming from, but I take a dimmer view. I think some producers are too lazy and to invent characters. I really don't see what's so hard about buying a leota...

Let me try to summarize the last several comments (which I agree with wholeheartedly): Superheroines fight crime and especially dastardly villains. They willingly put themselves in danger (heh, heh) and have survived their share of close calls. Those are the acts of someone with a lot of courage and...

tamonicus

Besides the platform boots (already mentioned), I really despise superheroines with lots of tattoos. A few small discrete ones I'll tolerate. But beyond that is a deal killer. That's a shame, because that includes some great looking women with superheroine swagger. But when they resemble Chris 'The ...

I selected "Other", by which I mean a KO scene of some sort.

Just read your message about 35 minutes before airtime; set the DVR. Thanks for the alert!
