OK, a footnote in history, not a big hit, but it did make it onto super 8, I think at the last minute, so to speak. What is the history on this print?

I was about to say possibly as an optical release but something stuck in my head that Marketing did bring it out in some format. 🤮🤮🤮 There seems to be discussion whether test prints were ever made. This was 1983.
As mentioned in previously thread up there with Nude Bomb and Disco Beaver as total 💩💩💩

A collector in Germany does have a print, digitized it, so that another collector was able to send the file to Italy for printing it directly to Super 8. I haven’t seen it, and I do not think I have to. Here’s a text to it you would have to translate via Google: http://www.super8rezensionen.de/rezent905.htm

I've never seen a print of Khan, but I heard somewhere along the line, that a print or two was struck. Another fairly rare, late print was "The Final Countdown", about an aircraft carrier that travels back in time to right before Pearl Harbor and the debate that they have as to whether to come into contact with Pearl Harbor and help them avoid catastrophie, or not get involved and allow the disaster to happen. A decent Twilight Zone style film. I believe it was a 3X400ft.

I did notice a Pink Ladies television series on one of the subscription channels. Think it might have been Paramount. It of course was 2023 remake with a diverse cast so beared no resemblance to reality. Can’t remember if it was drama or musical.
