Possibly the first of the 8mm extracts I saw at the age of 11 - the Universsl 8 200FT release of BUCK ROGERS - seen at home shortly after I saw it in a double-bill of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA and BRIT25C.
This extract contained a modified voiceover using the same text in the beginning of the theatrical release, followed by selected scenes on board the Draconia, his first meeting with Huer, Wilma, visiting old Chicago a brief sequence at the dance with Buck's immortal boogie with Ardala and the first fighter battle in outer space.
There is one irritable edit involving the fighters, when Buck blows the pirate ships up and it cuts to the pirate ship blowing one of the Earth Starfighters.
The music score isn't from BUCK ROGERS, but Stu Phillips music from BATTLESTAR, but this doesn't affact the enjoyment of a really neat 8 minute digest. Print quality overall was very good.
