Bones

So I just caught up on this thread. Paid the invoice before I saw the unboxing video and after seeing that im really kind of super excited. Im glad I have room to put my own steelbooks/blurays and I think I’ll be using the puzzle box for a few of the other releases. For my money I got into the boutique labels for the packaging and all the extras. I own these movies several times over but now I have a reason to search out the steel books for them.  Shipping aside I think $260 for this set is an awesome deal. I love all the care that MAG puts into their products. I don’t even love anaconda but that set is amazing. 
I just have to figure out how to explain to the wife that I spent $$$ for a set that doesnt have discs and for movies I already own. I mean we’ve been together for over 20 years and have 3 kids and a mortgage so I don’t think she’ll leave me. 
I hope...😬😬😬

Invoice Paid! Thank You!!

This set is absolutely gorgeous! Thank you @ksoskfor putting this together! I was a huge fan of the anaconda set and thats not even a movie I love lol. I am totally here for the presentation. Glad I jumped on this ine right away!

This retailer is something else. I liked anaconda when it came out but havnt seen it since. Took a chance on it and joined the GB. Got it yesterday and let me tell you it’s truly something special. My 6 yr ild is into monster movies and we “discovered the treasure box” contents together. Made her super excited to watch the flick. Had someone told me a year ago that one of the Crown Jewels in my collection would be a $125 bluray copy of Anaconda I would have thought they were crazy. Im a real sucker for packaging and presentation and this thing took the cake. I cant wait for the other releases!! Not sure how many people opened their copy but for those who don’t, im going to try and take detailed pics of all the contents in the next few days. I absolutely couldnt be happier that MP is the exclusive retailer in the U.S.

@Bones we had a change and you're now on this list for this, so you have secured both releases.

Thank you so much @extantsrevenge!!!!

Its been a hot minute since i posted my pick ups so i thought i would do a group pick for the last month or so. Just because i havnt posted doesn’t mean i stopped buying! Including items from John’s  (@Masterblaster)wonderful Big sale items. 

Special shout out to @mwatkins02 for the beautiful Alien Black Barrons for the secret santa gift! Thanks Home skillet!

I was lucky enough to get a oop copy of the prince or darkness steel from hamilton books so i could match my big trouble in little china shout set!

Also, not sure if a thanks is in order or not lol, but thanks to my good friend @Grendel, and a post regarding his Special edition of the Thing soundtrack, a seed was planted for me getting into vinyl. It finally bloomed. Thanks Buddy! Lol. 
Picked up an open box Rega P2 at more than 50% off retail from work and some records. Im not sure who hates me more, my wife or my wallet lol. 
also included is a pic of my modest set up. My room isn’t suitable for 5.1 so ive chosen stereo only. 

Merry Christmas to all the psychos around the world. While the year has been tough, finding the positives has helped me and my family. I am so grateful to @Masterblaster and this community for bringing a little joy to me this year!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas Psychos from California !!

Thank you to the best Secret Santa ever @mwatkins02!! I absolutely love my gifts! I couldnt wait to open the fac alien set. Maybe in a few years i will be to jaded to care about opening my editions. But now I have to open every one that comes in. Thank you to @Masterblasterand all everyone at MP for allowing me to join such a positive and wonderful community!

Also since i was lucky enough to grab the nova JW one clicks in the huge sale, i will be making a small shrine to one of my favorite movies series. The sophia marker set is stunning!

You can make your request with @Benoit46here using the FNAC GB.

 

When they finally have a link you can fill that out and he’ll take care of you.

Thanks Buddy!

Will we be having a GB for this or do I have to go direct?

Looks a really nice set @Bones

Not that I know anything about Jordan Peele films.

Sounds a bit adventurous calling two films a "collection" though. 

(just my usual stupid observations) 

Thanks @DodgyDave and @Grendel!

I wouldnt call it a collection as more of a box set and I have yet to see Get Out. Guess theres no excuse now! I did however enjoy Us and it was one of those late night, drunk, sign up for a group buy kinda things. Now heres hoping I wont regret Anaconda LOL.

Today was an excellent mail day! I was in the fence about the Jordan Peel set at first and even more so when I had to pay the invoice but im so glad i got it! It’s absolutely gorgeous! Thank you Media Psychos!

My latest pick ups. Thank you to @mwatkins02for such a wonderful price on my first grail. The Black Barons Exorcist. Such an absolutely beautiful version of my second favorite film. The arrow steelbook of re-animator was a gold find at fye today for $20! Any recommendations on what i might use to protect the second sight DOTD? I dont want anything to happen to that beautiful set!

Ive been wanting to watch this movie for sometime but havnt yet. I heard its fantastic and I cant wait to buy a physical copy!

My guess is that both editions are limited to 500 copies each, a sell out is guaranteed, so if you want one Set join fast. I'm also sure that we will not get extra on this one, so I might close after we reached our allocation. Will be a great addition to the Shining edition for sure.

Any Idea when this might go up for the GB? I want to make sure I'm on that list!

I have never seen this movie. Would this be a fun blind buy?

@DodgyDave I would Love that The Wolverine Steel Dave! 🙏🏼

Oops never mind lol

As the folks that tend to post in here, are a little more eclectic about their collections and purchases...

Does anyone want some "FREE" steelbooks ?

The steelbooks are free and I will pay for them to go to a relevent hub in the UK. Obviously there would be a small amount to pay MP for moving them around and combining at a later date.

They are all sealed and in perfect condition (as far as I can tell) except the rare German Ghost Rider. That has a tear in the seal on the front. They would also most likely be Region B only. Some may be Region Free. 

I just need to clear some space, and maybe someone will find a good home for them, or some of them. If not I'll probably bin them. I can't be bothered to eBay them at 99p start. 

 

 

I would be interested in the wolverine if if its available. Thank you @DodgyDave!

Paid!

Here is my little haul for the week. Doesnt have as many premiums but I'm trying to catch up! A big thaqnk you to @RAK for my second Manta Lap release!!

I also got my first shipped GB in the Nova John Wick: Parabellum, however now I have a hole that needs to be filled lol.

The last two are a couple of basic but fun steels as well as a custom hand made covid mask made by Callosum FX Studios and signed by Tom Savini.

Didn't know this thread existed 😍

 

I love to cook for the family. This is a homemade pasta, with chilli and tomato 😍 

I actually was searching for the Beetlejuice GB but had accidently had a space between Beetle and Juice and it quoted @Grendel for the curing method used for his knives. I would call it a fun accident! LOL

As these are Carbon Steel which, while keeping an exceptionally sharp edge, are prone to rust, I had to cure them.

To do this, I made a mixture of Grapefruit Juice (a flower vase full) and Cider Vinegar (1ounce).
