That delay isn’t too bad.  Mentally I add on another 90 days to any Weet release date so I’m not disappointed, and it usually works.

Gemma Chan was Minn Erva in Capt. Marvel. Agree that Movie wasn’t great.

 

As for Eternals, it wasn’t 10-12 new characters, it was 10 Original characters from the 70’s. 😁🤭 This movie was destined for bad reviews after Infinity War & End Game because people weren’t invested in it. But if you watch it without over thinking all that had gone before, then it’s not a bad movie at all. It’s just not following the trend of its predecessors (IMO). Much like the first Thor before this, it’s setting a back drop before the masses that have bad mouthed it wind up loving the story arc and characters in it. Again… IMO. 😊👍🏼

 

 

I respect the opinion.  For me though, having to watch an MCU movie without thinking of previous entries for it to be “not bad” is like having to load your beer with citrus and salt for it to be drinkable.  We’ll see if it does get another standalone or those characters just end up inserted into other movies or shows.  But no doubt it will get a Manta premium which will probably look inversely proportional to the watchability of the movie.

What was wrong with Eternals? 🤣 I'll be honest and say the only attention gave to that movie was Gemma Chan and if I had known it was a MCU title before I started it... I wouldn't have started it.

She was better in Captain Marvel as the right hand of the bad guy whose name I can’t remember.  I think the problem with Eternals was trying to stuff 10-12 brand new characters into one movie and expecting people to care about any of them with such limited development.  The best part of that movie was the voice cameo of Mahershala Ali in the post credits scene.

Can we just Thanos snap that movie and pretended it never happen?

Given the box office and critical response, Kevin Feige might have already done so

Theyll make just as much if not more from new movies and marvel is making them quickly enough to keep them busy, so again, no reason to assume theyll go backwards

I hope you’re right, but we’ll see.  I can’t imagine the premium market for The Eternals will be any more robust than the regular one.  That would definitely be the only premium I would never open.

We have no reason to assume theyll start doing old movies. The last 5 marvel movies have no premiums

We have one huge reason to assume…

I’ve always liked Marvel and Star Wars premiums and should be stoked by this announcement, but I’m just kinda burnt out on it.  Bought all the Blufans Marvel/Star Wars.  Bought all the WeET Marvel.  I really don’t want to have thirds of the same movies.

The lenti should have a extra layer of plastic on it. Dit you check if it this layer still on it??

I had this with the WeEt Venom 2 and Ant-Man and Wasp lentos and the extra layer was the cause of the weird scratches and creases

I had a dream last night that the next Weet exclusive was Age of Ultron, and one of the fullslips was Hulk.  I also then realized I think about this stuff too much.

I feel like I was pretty close on this.  At least Hulk is on the back of a slip…

One day I hope someone makes a steelbook that uses the "Art Coming Soon" graphic as the actual art

Yes, I agree it is interesting. I see the draw of a low print run however I think A1 is a much better looking slip. I like how it wraps around all three sides. The backside of the Lenticulars also look amazing as well. I think those will be better than A2 too.

I’ve always preferred the WeET Avengers A2s, but will definitely go with the A1 here.  I never liked the design they used for the A2.

Sorry IKEA, but looks like I won’t need that extra Billy bookcase after all

So happy to finally have an Ant-Man OC. Looking forward to the FAC Hard Box too. Just wish Blufans released their planned OC!

That scrapped Blufans Ant-Man and the Wasp was my first pre-order as an MP newbie.  The Blufans Solo: A Star Wars Story was my second.  I had started to think I was just bad luck after those.

Got my OC yesterday, thanks!

Maybe I’m late to the party, but I didn’t realize until yesterday that WeET had put a protective film layer over both Ant-Man lentis.  I checked and the Venom 2 lenti had it also.  I know the Steelbook magnets included in the OCs have always had this, but I like that they do it with the slips too.  What a cool thing for them to add, offering a little extra protection for us openers.

I had a dream last night that the next Weet exclusive was Age of Ultron, and one of the fullslips was Hulk.  I also then realized I think about this stuff too much.

Got mine yesterday.  Perfect delivery again, thanks MP team!

@maxpower1999 @ShadowWarrior ok, so the invoices were edited which created a new notification, but the invoice number is the same so when you go in to pay it doesn't matter. It will take you to the most recent version no matter what email you use.

 

Sorry for any confusion - Ken

Appreciate it, thanks!

I got a third one just a bit ago, and since it's a lower amount than the second, I'd like to stick with that one haha

Hi, I got 2 invoices for this group buy.  Can I PM someone to get the details on which to pay and what the charges are?  One has 2 shipping charges, one has just 1.  Thanks!

I agree. It's a nice cover. Too bad I didn't care for the movie too much.

Agreed.  It's grown on me a bit over the last 10 years, mostly the Sam Rockwell performance, but it's still towards the bottom of the MCU list

For some reason, I really like this one.  Even though it does not match the tone of the movie in the slightest, the cover has a cool retro vibe

This is so awesome! Definitely rotate as @Hollywood E Rock mentioned! Unless, do you have room for another display case like this? You can also put editions in the back on those little acrylic risers and have room for some in front of them?

Unfortunately no to the risers.  Those displays take up most of the depth of the shelf.  I have other media shelves but they hold the regular steelbooks and movies.  Maybe I can repurpose some space there.  But I love the rotation idea, so I’ll be doing that soon

The original Spider-Man trilogy looks great with the rest of my collection!  Problem is I’m totally out of display room and Thor will be arriving at some point.  There’s already 12 others not displayed that I don’t know what to do with.

Got and paid mine today, thanks!  It’s rare to be happy to drop that much money
