The 3D is particularly nice, and has a real comic-book title feel to it. For a real-world example, have a look at the Basecamp type treatment:
The Typodermic site has some other great fonts to purchase, including an excellent silent movie font, and lots of others for a variety of uses. For free fonts, head over to SearchFreeFonts.com for over 7,000 typefaces free to download.
Got any other recommendations or favourites?

- Blue Highway is a copy of Interstate. A very good copy :). I use BH as well, because I can’t afford to pay $1000 for the Interstate line. Definitely a nice font to work with.
