Non-BBI Merchandise
MST3K Related Multimedia
There have been a variety of sources of MST3K items made and sold without ever appearing in a BBI catalog. Some were made by fans of the show while many others resulted from the merchandising agreement with MCA/ Universal after the release of MST3K: The Movie.
I know of other items that were available, but I did not get the opportunity to pick them up. If you have one not pictured here please contact me. Here are the ones I have run across.
1. The Amazing Colossal Man video, 1996 by Rhino Home Video
Although this was one of the first video releases on 4-1-96 a problem with the rights to the film developed and the tapes were discontinued.
Therefore, it was never sold by Best Brains.2. Video 3-Pack, Red Zone Cuba, The Atomic Brain, I Accuse My Parents, 1997 by Rhino Home Video
