Check out this hard to find mint on card action figure of Mechanicles the greek inventor with an obsession for cleanness from Aladdin TV Show.

Youtube’r chanforcartoons is uploading the series in Russian. I just watched Bad Mood Rising it’s fun to watch it in a completly different langauge then English or Dutch. I laughed when Iago said “Now if that pumice-headed genie would just make an appearance…” I knew that a second later big blue would crash on him just like he did before and would many times over. Hilarious!

Trough Disney-Princess club I spotted fan art from the series episode “Do The Rat Thing” in where Jasmine and Iago are turned into animals and spend the day trying to get back to the palace for help. The princess learned to respect her poor citizens more getting a fresh perspective on her city at the time. The piece is made by purplegoldfish in 2006.

Heather uploaded the transcript of “Which Way Did She Go”. The last Sadira episode in where she meets her sandwich sisters and prevents them from taking over the city. With the other 3 transcripts 1/3 of the Aladdin TV series has got a transcript.

Worth mentioning is Unali’s Disney art gallery at Deviant Art. Her work varies between so-so to excellent there’s some Aladdin related art like Mirage in the episode “The Lost Ones” Wicked!! And a drawing of an Elkatib, childeren who years ago joined the sorceress. I think it was that they don’t have to grow up. Anyway the catch is that they can only walk the earth one night every seven years.
The episode is on YouTube though I can’t promise you it’s still there in a few months. If that’s the case surf to Aladdin Central’s image gallery for over 320 screenshots the transcript is there too.

Heather made lots of screens of the Mozenrath episode Black Sand, free for grabs but a back link to Aladdin Central’s Image Galllery is much appreciated. Anyway I thought it was a good time to discuss Black Sand.

Mozenrath uses the mysterious black sand the replace everyone with a disguised Mamluck. Rasoul and his guards are the first victims to the sand, next is Jasmine followed by Genie and the Sultan even Aladdin is sucked into the world of the black sand.
It’s my least favorite Mozenrath episode and an average series episode. The story is shaking; it takes a long time before the story takes off. Iago has a few funny lines and Genie he’s an idiot Like when’s succumbed to the sand, delivered in a wooden barrel he thinks it’s the barrel fairy giving him the container. Lucky his role is relative small. Iago is the one with the smart remarks like prying at the Jasmine mamluck, the parrot doesn’t know she’s a mamluck, if there’s a party at hand.
There’s a good piece of action halfway in a fight between Aladdin and the Jasmine clone. Because after Aladdin’s succumbed to the sand Carpet in essence saves the day by going in attached to a rope giving his friends an escape route while Iago and Abu distract Mozenrath and Xerxes.
The good guys return to Agrabah, they fight off the Mamlucks and Mozenrath is defeated by his own hand.

… to burn Agrabah to the ground. Drawn by Lithor and Captain-Lilou this is by far the best drawing of Mirage I’ve seen at DeviantArt. Aladdin’s worse feline opponent comes to live with incredible detail, beautiful coloring & shading. The rest of this graphic artist work is certainly worth a visit. Also, over at Aladdin Central there’s a nice short discussion starring the big bad kitty.

I simply can’t let this one pass by without making a note about it. While I love most bad guys in the Aladdinverse one way or another it is Chaos who makes it in my top 5 for being a cat (cat lover here) his quirkiness, humor and simply being the most powerful feline I’ve seen in a cartoon.

Until a couple of years ago Production Cell’s from the big studios like Disney and Warner where exclusively sold at animation galleries prices range from affordable to extreme expensive. With Internet and EBay/PayPal in particular prices went down somewhat but more importantly for Joe and Jane Average buying a cell from their favorite animated movie/series became much easier. A computer with Internet access and a credit card is enough.

Since last year I noticed the market for Aladdin TV Series production cells exploded, the amount of cells for sale seems to grow by the week. Episodes that I didn’t even know cells excited from appear on EBay for reasonable prices. Take the scene below, it’s from the ep Moonlight Madness, if you remember Aladdin takes Jasmine on a romantic outing to an island but a lost treasure is also located on that same island. Here we see Genie aiding Aladdin to distract his fiancée from figuring out Aladdin didn’t go to that island just for romance.

Genie as waitress. the pink Cadillac the bird and monkey prepping food it all gives me a American 60’s/70’s vibe as portrayed in the classic TV series Happy Days or Grease though the car reminds me more of Miss Saigon then any anything else. Taking about Grease; Saturday Night Fever: dress Aladdin and Jasmine 70’s fashion and they blend in fine. Wikipedia sources a 2005 BCC article on just what I wrote above:
“For me, the drive-in conjures up images like ones in Happy Days. As our world becomes more hectic and less safe, the more the drive-in becomes a wholesome retreat from it.”

Someone posted the Italian Series Intro on YouTube it reminded me of the mid 90’s, it was around ‘95 I think when I saw some of my favorite Aladdin episodes like The Secret of Dagger Rock on the Italian channel RaiUno. My local TV provider had the channel behind a set-top box which I didn’t have still despite the bad static on regular cable I could watch and hear bits and pieces.
