Hearing news that China is to end a nearly four year ban on all Marvel films ahead of Ant-Man and Wakanda Forever.

Picked up this little beauty this morning, impressive lenticular. 😎

Big thanks @blu.steel33 @Masterblaster @ksosk and all the MP team. 😍

I missed the Doctor Strange release and was just gonna ask how Disney/Marvel/Zavvi were handling the slips. So, thanks for the warning! I'll stick with the Best Buy steel-only edition when that goes live then and keep my MCU shelf (mostly) consistent. 

Doctor Strange was just average, nice sturdy slip box, standard finish on the artwork, let down by the printed banner and age logos. 

The slip looks nice, shame it's going to have a 4k printed banner and printed age rating symbols.

I don't know if it's the same as the Doctors Strange ITMOM... If so, it's going to make me seriously pause.... I hate that the Huge 4K banner and the age indicators were printed right onto the slip and not stickers....

 

If these aren't printed on and are stickers, then I am all in... 

I got the Carlito's Way Zavvi collectors edition which is a Universal release, it had a card insert not a printed banner.

The two Paramount releases Event Horizon and Untouchables had a printed banner.

So i reckon this will be a card insert as it's a Universal release.

Great! Hopefully they put the features on the 4K disc, too. Otherwise, I'll have to pick up the US release since I don't have a region-free player. Unless Uni Blu-rays are region-free?

I believe Universal should be good, maybe someone can confirm.

Thanks for info, @Ari and @hdblueman. Guess I'll just sit tight and wait for an email from them on an updated release date. But sometime between July and September is good to know!  

Its UK release date on all three formats has been marked as July 18^th 2022, and we’re getting good-looking bonus features too.

Apparently the US release comes out on Tuesday! Zavvi is still showing a Dec. 31, 2022 release date - has anybody heard anything about a UK date yet? Or word on if this steel will have any de- or embossing like their steel for The Green Knight?

HMV have the release date as 18th July 2022, for the First Edition release of Northman.

Just checked the Royal Mail tracking app and it has gone from item leaving overseas on the 4th of November to we will be delivering your package today, I guess the ball is rolling again 🤷‍♀️

Just checked my tracking and it's on way to the post office depot. I must admit i thought we would have to wait till the New Year. So that was a nice surprise.

Live Pics Spine

 

 

 

Got my copy delivered today and was surprised to see the spine was characters and not a title. 😡

Not a big fan of the character spine thought they had stopped that.

Strange as pictures on Zavvi show a title.

That looks lush. 😍

Great questions 👍.

 

All UK members will have the regular UK HUB, French members will have the regular French HUB. All other european members we will see which HUB works best.

Thanks for the response. 👍

Big thanks to MP for taking on the FAC GB's for us members much appreciated. 😍

@extantsrevenge can i ask how the hub will work for us in the UK now.  Will we have an European hub, or will our copies be shipped to the US and back to Europe?   Just trying to gauge how much shipping will cost for FAC/BB editions.

Hi @forenhase,

Thanks for the best Group Buys i have ever taken part in, i mean that too.

Always perfect editions.  You were always polite and easy to communicate with.  I will miss your GB'S but completely understand your decision.

Hoping MP can get something together for us in the UK, so we can still source FAC/BB editions.

Many thanks Andre really appreciate all you have done for me. 👍👊👍

Here's a picture of the light up box from my copy pretty cool effect. 

@forenhase received my E3 edition all safe and sound.  Beautiful edition many thanks for another flawless GB. 👍👊👍
