Really pleased with the overall effect. Especially the poster roll. 
Got hammered for the vat import stuff this time by DHL. Hopefully the next one won’t. 

Really nice box ... but it's weird, I never paid some vat import , and I received lots of orders from Filmarena with DHL.

Just hope it's not a new policy from Filmarena & DHL ... because someone told on a post that DHL will increase their prices from July 1st !

You're absolutely right sir, it's most of the time subjective.

But this time...45 + shipping is "cheap" or even not a typical scalper price like on other Mediabooks. It's also a "fluffy" (wattiert!) one. They cost always a bit more, compared to normal Mediabooks. But, the prices of Mediabooks went up during the inflation, like everything else and they will keep rising, till we stop buying. 🤫😅

I saw few of you get "Crawl" mediabook ... all covers are nice, but the one with the skin is fu****** amaizing. 

At the moment, my priorities for horror movies are steelbooks or french amaray.

I have the amaray for "Crawl", good movie from Alexandre Aja ... it's been a long time he did not make a good movie.

my top 3 from this director : "High Tension, "Hill have eyes 1" (remake from Wes Craven) and lately "Crawl"

You're absolutly right about the inflation ... shipping & price product on Amazon US, prices for MB, steelbooks from Zavvi, & artbooks .... for all of this, prices are really increasing. 

So I do not buy as much as before especially with artbooks in US  

Today, I'm waiting for a box set steelbook collection "The Hunger Games" from Amzon IT.

What do you mean with "high price"?

The release price for it was from 40-45€ (depending on the shop)

If you bought it from the initial shop (Eyk Media) It was 46 € incl. shipping.

So if you would find someone offering it for 60-70 incl. insured shipping to France...well, that would be a very nice and very fair price. Because shipping to France with DHL is 13,99€. And the price is going up (maybe) tomorrow, because DHL raises their prices on some stuff.

hi @javi

when I say "high price" ... it's totally subjective ... price was 45 € + shipping on "shop.dtm.at" ... did not know this website. 

you surelly right saying it's a fair price ... but I never paid such price for an MB so I was surprised. 

Sometimes we have to make some choices, and I do not know if this "Martyrs" MB is a priority or not. I have also many artbooks for movies, since Covid, prices are higher

So between premium editions & artbooks , it's a hard to choose  

Already have many preorders just in France & a great artbook for this summer "E.T" (it comes with goodies inside the books). It will be very nice with my UHDClub edition

Do you mean the attached one?

 

Yes.... I would love to see some Mediabooks GB at MP...but I think it's to difficult to manage, because of the very rare stuff...some of them are just limited to 111 pieces...

Yes, found this mediabook on german websites .... but no Paypal and high price. 

I spend money this afternoon, it was not planned .... it is The Hunger Games Collection 4K Steelbook from Amazon IT, because can't be delivered with Best Buy as I lived in France.

So I'll wait for few weeks now ... and maybe I'll bought the nice mediabook ... really like this movie ... really great because you don't know why there is such violence, you have to wait till the end to understand the reason. 

As a regular, even there was GB, I would have no chance to get Mediabook with GB for very limited print run.

And the media books, I guess I'd rather just have the English on the covers,  but it's normally a German product so that can't be expected. And the foreign titles are never enough of a deterrent to stop me from getting it.  But super high prices would be....

 

The only issue i have at this point is finding something you would like to buy on Amazon,  etc and it not being shipped to"My" location.  That's a real drag!

@Mutantsmiley I appreciate your message and all informations ... just wished to know how you get your items ... don't think I'll pay for a gold coin, even if it's nice.

You're right, it's normal there is german text on german editions but sometimes .... I prefer havin a flyer with text and audio / video infos.

Since a few years Amazon blocked many things , most annoying is if you live in country, sometimes you can't ship / delivery to an adress in a different country.

And sometimes, you also have to be Prime to buy the item. 

The only thing is to have a buddy all around the world who may buy the product you need on Amazon, & then send it to you. That's the only way.

 In Germany we spend 70 € or more just for a Steel book from Canada, UK (incl.taxes), US or Asia.

Some of them sell out very quickly, but to be honest, most of them you can find at collectors groups on Facebook for a very cheap price... maybe 5 percent of all Mediabooks are getting more and more expensive. But the other 95% staying at a normal price. Just don't pay these ridiculous eBay prices.

I checked on different website for "Maryrs" Cover B Mediabook, it's 75€ or 79€ + shipping. and same price for "Eden Lake" Mediabook. 

Also those site don't use paypal. No way I'll bought it. 

Those editions are a bit old, so I think it's more difficult to find. Actually I'm old school, just buying from GB MediaPsycho, or Amazon or Fnac in France. Don't buy anymore on Ebay, prices are so ridiculous, as you said  

Never bought on facebook groups .... either I don't know the group or I miss the edition ... I'm not so old but not very good for buisness 😃

I did not buy it ... but yes, you can find it on Amazon.es , still in stock , only 14€

Have you guys been in my movie room again??

Hi @Mutantsmiley  

Very nice collecction edtions 👍 I wish I could have some mediabook, but now there are very expensive, 

Really wish to get a nice edition for "Martyrs" and "Eden Lake" for decent price.

Like everyone, I have limited budget, can't afford to spent 70€ in a Mediabook ... and when it's time for preorder it's sold out very fast due to the limit print run. 

Do not know if you agree ... but sometimes there is some text in german on front & back cover, and IMO , really don't like it. I would prefer english text or no text on visuals.

But it's obvious the text is in a german for a mediabook.

By the way, could you tell please how you get your golden piece and different card MP ? Do we have to pay to get them in the store ? 

Thank you

Martyrs is one of my French Top 4 contemporary Horror movies with Inside, Frontiers and High Tension being the other 3.

 

I actually own this steelbook of Ghostland. Like you said: very nice finsh with debossing. Passed on the MB for that steelbook.

 

I am not sure if the making of is also on the new Martyrs Media Book edition - as its not mentioned on the cover. However, I own the NSM Records bluray too which includes the excellent 80 min making of. That alone was worth the price for the blu.

 

Obviously, I am also a big fan of Bustillo/Maury. Hope, that especially Livide will also get a nice release in the future.

It seems we got common taste for french horror movies   Maybe you already know, but I just checked & saw on google, there is plenty of mediabook in Austria for horror movies.

I forgot to talk about "High Tension" which is excellent , I saw it in theater at the time, never saw at the movie such tension. And so, you can find some mediabook in Austria.

I'm absolutly 100% agree with you, the making of from Pascal Laugier movies are as excellent & important as the movie itself.

I never saw movies from Bustillo / Maury ... but I'll check & try to watch their movies  

It's sad because we do not have many horror / survival movies in France ... there are mostly comedy or drama in theater. 

Another must have in a collection ... never find a nice steelbook or digibook for a decent price .... movie called "Eden Lake", for me it's the best UK survival / horror movie.

Of course ... we can't miss "The Descent" from Neil Marshall. Next movies from this director are not very good. But "The Descent" is a big slap 

I have this steelbook , but you may find mediabooks in Germany / Austria

If you did not see it ... check the movie "Revenge", pretty good survival / horror , there is 2 different steelbook ... first one is glossy & embossed title, it's a spanish edition.

and the second one, is a german edition, still available , full glossy ... but if you get it in Italia, you'll get the bluray + the soundtrack on CD. 

Did not like quiet enough this movie to buy steelbook.

New Mediabooks arrived today.

Since I couldnt get them directly, a big thank you goes out to Holger @Cornbuster for ordering and sending them to me.

 

Martyrs, padded MB, bluray, Cover B, limited 500 Edition:

Really good choice ... Martyrs is a really good french horror movie ...

do not know what you get as bonus ... but on the french bluray, there is a great making of from the director Pascal Laugier 

When I saw your edition .. I checked on Amazon DE ... there is 3 different mediabook but the price is way too high. your edition is 79€ + shipping.

If you like horror movie from the same director ... you should check the good steelbook german  ... with nice finish and once again there is a long making of very interesting.

I really like this director ... there is the french singer "Mylene Farmer" in "Ghostland" ! You may also find a mediabook for "Ghostland" in germany.

There are some recent pickups in there somewhere, lol. Finally got a chunk of the collection put on display at the new home, but will need to add some shelving to get it all. I need a break, haha.

Great collection  .... l love it 😍 Your furniture & shelf are really nice & convenient. 

By the way, won't you have a spare room for me please ? 😀

 I also have a lots of Asian editions, and no clue what all the signs mean....but it's nice to look at...

same for me .. I put Asian edtions (korean, japan, chinese) all together on a shelf ... and I take a look a the spine & check on Kimchidvd with the publisher to know exactly which movie it is.

I have almost 10-15 editions from CJ Entertainment, Ara Media,... so it's not too hard to find them on Kimchidvd & Novamedia, even it's sold out long time ago.

no I get Monster Calls    Plain Archive FullSlip B

If you really like this movie and can afford it ... you really should try and get the steelbook besides Plan Archive .... 

I have the steelbook, but I placed an order on Plain for Fullslip Type A ... I think the artwork fullslip for front & back is so good .... it's like one big picture. 

The Full Type B is the same ... one big picture, only colors are pretty the same as the steelbook.

Other thing ... I really like your mediabook Apocalypto ... the finish looks so nice ... can you please confirm is there english sub ? Thank you  

Don't have this mediabook, I get the zavvi steelbook but visual is not "waouhhhhhhh"

Sieben Minuten Nach Mitternacht/Monster Calls    german BD for my Premium

 

Hi,
Did you have the french steelbook ? it's really great, full glossy .... but no german audio and no german sub ... there is english audio & sub.

here it is : 

The content for editions looks really crazy .... holy sh** ... so amazing on pictures.

Hope I'm wrong but on the picture the effect Double Lenti do not seems "wouahhh" .... maybe should I choose the finish for Fullslip.

Maybe In hands the effect will be really nice ... with depth ...

It's so great, UHD Club get only the trilogy ... , is there any reason why the fourth movie Crystal Skull is not in the editions ???!!!

IMO I don't like the last Indy movie, so good for me, but I guess for all big fans, it may be a bit disappointing.

Very happy with the work from UHD, once again with the pictures "beauty shots" .... and so looking forward to get it in hands 😃

Bonnes Vacances à toi @Benoit46  

Sorry I don't have Twitter, Instagram ... use Facebook with Messenger only to communicate. 

And do not subscribe to many GB (waiting some Hdzeta, MLAB ....), my purchases are mostly WWA steelbooks from France & Zavvi. 

Not sure it's really helpfull or interesting for others ... 

Steelbook visual is the same as Blufans ... and one Full edition is also the same as Nova 

The difference ... WeeT propose editions with 4K contrary to Blufans & Nova, it was only 3D & 2D.

Matrix Resurrections & No Time to Die, are the worst movies in the beginning of this year (IMO)

First time, I see a title on pre order still available on MLAB ... that's a proof it's a big disappointment ...

really hope they'll think about their strategy, the item is maybe not what's fans are expecting.

Really big fan of John Woo ... IMO "The Killer" and "Hard Boiled" are two masterpiece .... and would be so great to get those movies at UHD CLUB.

There are so much items and visuals to make perfect editions ...  

For "Hard Boiled", the edition hidden in a bird cage (like in the movie, we replace guns with edition in the cage) ,  I'd love it  

here some items in the movies which are symbols and not much difficult to make for an edition : Origami , police badge in "Hard Boiled". a lighter , fake bill, a dove.

As much as I've been a passionate student of the Matrix (even had t-shirts made), the two sequels were so devoid of the original philosophy that I now have only the first release in Zavvi 4K steelbook and the recent TOC 4K renditions; however people love collecting for so many reasons that there's always value in these sets.

 

I can't comment on this 'reboot' as I would never entertain it myself, but it's all good. 😊

I always think about one thing .... with all those collector fan for premium editions, do they buy mainly editions for movies they like or collectors people do buy everything (even movies they really did not like) ?

in my case, I can't buy a premium edition for a movie I really did not like.  With Matrix 4, I just bought the Zavvi steelbook, that's it.

There doesn't seem to big a lot of interest in this title.  I know a lot of people didn't like this last movie in the franchise

We can say it's not the best movie for all Matrix movies, there was so expectation before the release, and a big disappointment after.

But there is maybe another reason ... perhaps people don't like the new strategy MLAB ... making only 2 editions and an item

This item (only 10cm) seems really cheap for this realase compared to the item in Dunes One-Click. 

As long as the materials will cost a lot , I guess we'll get less editions for Box ... even Hdzeta made 2 edtions for "BvS". 

The paper, the ink ... are materials with higher price than before the Covid crisis. 

Like Dune visuals ... I really like the Fullslip ... and a bit disappointed with DL.

I guess with the increasing price for materials ... they maybe choose to make only 2 editions and a "goodies" which is a symbol for the movie.

Just saw also beauty shots on Collectong ... and I noticed that now they sold PET Protector for editions or one-click !

Do you think they still will include PET Protector for One-Click with GB MediaPsycho ?

Thank you  

Invoice Paid !

Thank you ... 🙏

Steelbook is nice but most I'm not a fan of this movie !

Don't like it enough for buying premium edition ... I'll wait for the first Matrix instead !

The WCL edition was amazing, but I'm very curious & looking forward to see visuals for Fullslip. 

I can't imagine what's possible for lenti on this title ... no doubt MLAB will do great work as usual.

I have a few steelbooks for this movie but the vintage touch for the steelbook is really good idea and I think it's the best compared to others.
