Challenge #6!
ABCDLMNOP: Alphabetize and Summarize!

 

For this week's challenge, we're going to be spelling our usernames with the first letter of a movie's title! (Un)fortunately, how hard this will be is entirely based on your name. We will also be sharing the origin of our names. Here's the rules!

• Only the first letter of the title can be used. If it starts with "The", use the word after it. If It starts with a number, use the first letter of said number. Any editions will do!
• Only one movie per letter. For those who think they can spam X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I've got some bad news for you. You can only use that movie once. But the other X-Men movies are fair game!
• Tell us a little about yourself. How did you come up with your username?
• Cheese It! Maybe you're short a letter or two. Well, you can always get creative! For example, let's look at my submissions:

I—I Am Legend

N—National Lampoon's Animal House

F—From Dusk till Dawn

I—The Incredibles

N—The Notebook

I—Inglourious Basterds

T—The Thing

E—Ex Machina

D—Dredd

O—Onward

O—10 Cloverfield Lane

R—The Raid

S—Star Trek Beyond

 

If you're wondering why I included 10 Cloverfield Lane for O, it's because I counted it as ONE ZERO, not TEN. Is that an illogical approach? I prefer to call it inspired.

 

And finally, the origin of my username. I came up with it shortly after playing BioShock: Infinite (big spoilers ahead)

...

...

... because I loved the character of Elizabeth so much. It's based on the finale with the lighthouses, there now being "infinite doors" for her to travel through.

 

>Elizabeth: Look at that. Thousands of doors...opening all at once. My god, they're beautiful.

 

>Elizabeth: See? Not stars. Doors.

>Booker: Doors to...?

>Elizabeth: To everywhere. All that's left is the choosing.

>Booker: What are all these lighthouses? Why are we...who are...?

>Elizabeth: There are a million million worlds. All different and all similar. Constants and variables.

>Booker: What?

>Elizabeth: There's always a lighthouse. There's always a man, there's always a city...

>Booker: How do you know this?

>Elizabeth: I can see them through the doors. You...me, Columbia, Songbird... But sometimes, something's different...yet the same.

>Booker: Constants and variables.

>Elizabeth: Yes.

 

>Elizabeth: You can wait as long as you want. Eventually, you'll give him what he wants.

>Booker: How do you know all this?

>Elizabeth: I can see all the doors, and what's behind all the doors, and behind one of them, I see him.

Yep Bioshock Infinite was truly a good game and the only Bioshock I’ve ever played.

Now can any form of media count for this challenge or is it only steels?

So did anyone go to the vicepress website and pick up an edition with an exclusive limited signed 24 x 36 poster print  of the cover art  … before they sold out …I picked this one up naturally…😆👍…

 

 

Mate you are a legend I had no idea they were bundling in the posters. I follow them on instagram and when I saw the artwork I was like damn these would all make some nice posters but wasn’t sure if they would release the posters, I ordered the Goodfellas on Zavvi but I’m going to c@ncel that and order it from Vice for the poster. Thanks again

This time it is not a new steelbook but it makes me as please as a special edition : A NEW LIBRARY 🤪. And what means a new library? A new way to classify OC, slips, steelbooks and Amarays 🥳🥳🥳.

 

From my point of view, it looks so nice now 😍😍😈

 

Just realised I might not be home for this upcoming week so I thought I’ll get week 5 challenge done now,

Alright so a quick rundown on my history with steelbooks, I got my very first steelbook back in 2011 Christmas which was for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, since then I was hooked and collected video game steelbooks since.

Come May 2020 that was when I got my first movie steelbook which was for Your Name.

My first premium was Reservoir Dogs by Novamedia which I got on 9th July 2020. This being my favourite movie by Tarantino this was a must have for me.

My second premium was Captain America: Civil War by WeET. This is most definitely my favourite release by WeET and that fact they chose my favourite poster for this film it was a instant buy. I got this on the 3rd September 2020.

My third premium was Avengers: Infinity War but as that is also by WeET I’ll skip that and move onto my fourth which is Blade Runner 2049 by HDzeta. It was a tough choice at the time between this or FAC but i decided to go with HDz. I got this on the 24th December 2020.

Fifth premium was Iron Man by Blufans. As this is my favourite MCU movie of all time I just needed to get this. Got this on the 25th January 2021.

My sixth premium was Wind River by FAC. Artwork is simply beautiful on the slip and so is the steelbook. Got this on the 24th February 2021.

As for what brought me to MP that was the Avengers: Endgame WeET release back in December 2020, this was also my first GB and I chose the SL.

Happy Sunday challengers.   After a fun week 4 challenge from @raylight that was all about going places, it’s time to announce week 5 where we will be dusting off our way-back machines and going back in time, so without further ado…

 

 

Psycho Challenge - Week 5

There’s A First Time For Everything

a/k/a We Were All Newbies Once

 

For week 5, members need to dig back deep to when they first started collecting premiums.

 

To satisfy the week, you must post 5 different premiums from at least 3 different retailers that represent the first (or close to the first) you ever owned.

In addition, this week is all about our origin stories so for each release, please let us know why/how you found and acquired that particular edition and what about it motivated you to continue collecting that retailer or premiums in general.

 

Finally, one of the editions should be the one that you first bought when you joined MP, or the title that led you to MP.

 

Let’s see how we all got started!!

 

also don’t forget - if you have an idea for a weekly challenge let @extantsrevenge know by saying so in your submission. 

 

 

Lucky for me I actually keep dates on when I acquire each release. 
 

I’ll get around to this when I finish my shifts.

I thought Manta Lab has a good deal with Warner??

So what are they waiting for.

I think the next release is going to be 2001 a space odyssey. From there I’ll guess they’ll continue with that sneak peak of the upcoming moves they revealed last year.

Nice steelbook ... could you tell us please what's the finish ... spot gloss, zero-finish, full glossy ....  ?
I do hesitate to buy it. Good movie but not my favorite.
Thank you  

Zero finish, but it looks nice when you reflect some light onto it, the colours get more vibrant.

@MoneySniper

@goose_3387 you are a absolute legend, thank you so much

This is my second attempt for challenge 3 so hopefully this time I pass 😅.

Seeing as though video games extras count towards this I thought I’d change it up a bit.

1: Previously I showcased my posters which were included with the Force Awakens release by Blufans as per below.

2:  Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Harden Edition

I got this Christmas back in 2011 and it was also my very first steelbook I ever got. The best part about this release is the diary of the character you play from all 3 parts. The immense detail that is in this is crazy as it’s actually made to look like it’s gone into a battlefield. 
 

Below are some random pages of the diary,

3: Final Fantasy XII-2 Limited Collector’s Edition

Oh where can I start with this, I absolutely adore the minimalistic Final Fantasy logos with the white background and with the Final Fantasy logo it’s such a beauty. This release came with the game, art book, soundtrack, steelbook and I completely forgot but a loose lenticular card as well.

Couple of Goodies came in from across the pond.

 

Star Trek: The Motion Picture 4K UK Version from Universal

 

I went with the UK version since it the different versions of the movie on Blu-ray as well as the 4K versions and special features Blu-ray. The US 3 Disc version only has the 2 4K Discs and the Special Features Blu-ray.

 

Next up l, is the Day of the Dead Season 1 set from Dazzler. It's a remake of the Day of the Dead Movie in episodic format.

 

Last, is a set that I've waited years for. Freddy's Nightmares on Blu-ray. It has not been made available officially on Blu-ray, so a custom set was made for me. I had to wait a year to get it, but it's well worth it. It also has the Best of Freddy's Nightmares and bonus features from Nightmare on Elm Street. 

I am loving those Transformers in the background, great collection of the G1 figures.

Hi @goose_3387 hope all is well.

Thanks again for making me my current Civil War signature but I think it’s time for a upgrade.
 

Recently rewatched Breaking Bad so I’m in a Breaking Bad mood, if you could use the image attached and Ideally if you could have Jessie & Walter on that right side of the signature and my name on that left in the Breaking Bad font that would be awesome.

Hope this doesn’t cause any inconvenience for you & thanks again.

For challenge #3 I have chosen the foldout posters that were included with the Force Awakens by Blufans.

Each slip included it’s own unique poster as below.

Double Lenti,

Single Lenti,

Fullslip,

Cool thing about this posters is that each side shows a character as per below.

Front,

Back,

Just realised we’re now on page 500! Now onto page 1000

My favorite extra item is the ouija set that came with my limited edition of Witchboard. It is super high quality and I use it often. 
 

 

 

 

next would be the coffee mug that came with the Cinemuseum Joker OC. I use it on my shelves to corral my MP Swag pens. 
 

 

 

next would be the awesome horn that came with the Cinemuseum OC of The Terrifier. No reason other than I think it’s just really original and looks nice on the shelf with other extra items. 
 

 

a couple of honorable mentions would be the extra items that came with The Shining OC and The Rocky Collection.
