oh wow Space Explorers, that's a deep cut. last i heard the lost episodes were still MIA. some say they got lost during studio shifting but who knows for real. have you tried lostshows.com or reaching out on retro toon forums? sometimes collectors have this kinda stuff without realizing it's gold

Heard about these elusive episodes myself. The story goes that they were never fully completed due to budget cuts, and the footage that was done got shelved. Occasionally, storyboards or scripts crop up on auction sites, might be worth tracking if you're that invested.

True aficionado here. If we're talking Space Explorers, you might be onto something but the 'lost episodes' are a white whale. Rumor has it a few VHS copies were circulated in niche collector's markets around the early '00s. You might want to check European eBay listings from that era, they sometimes turn up there.

Not to burst any bubbles, but are we even sure these episodes exist? Could just be one of those collective false memories or myths like other 'lost' media from the 90s. Everyone says they've 'heard' about these episodes but no one's actually seen them.

Working in animation, I can tell you shows often produce extra content that doesn't see the light of day. These episodes might've been canned before airing, and since digital archiving wasn't a thing, it's gonna be super tough to find them. Best shot is someone who worked on the show. Try LinkedIn?

Not to be that guy, but before you fall down the rabbit hole, you should check out this thread on toonmythbusters.net debunking some of the claims about these 'lost episodes.' Might save you some time!
