I'm pretty sure that WeET also will be releasing Far From Home next as well. I pre-ordered No Way Home from Manta and Homecoming from WeET on the same day in September, and I instantly thought I should have waited for WeET's version of NWH. Manta's set is awesome, but WeET did better with Homecoming IMO. So if this one doesn't wow me, I may just wait for WeET. I don't love FFH enough to have two one-clicks.

Are you me? I also just one of these from @Masterblaster! It's a fantastic release!

I've participated in a lot of group buys with Media Psychos. But every once in awhile I missed a release due to my membership tier (back when I started and wasn't Gold/Platinum) or make the decision not to participate and then regret it big time (Manta Interstellar, WeET Spider-Man Trilogy come to mind). One of those that I chose not to participate in, and regretted it instantly after the GB was closed, was the release below: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse One click from WeET. I want to thank @Masterblaster for the opportunity to grab this one! This movie, and it's phenomenal sequel, have become two of my favorite Marvel movies off all-time! Grail attained!! The very last picture also has the 4k release and the Amazon Japan exclusive. #Teamopenitup #Lifeisshortsoopenit

A2 Fullslip

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is my favorite slip of the three, but they are all looking good! A2 uses my favorite art from the movie. Makes me wonder what they are going to do with the WeET exclusive art wise. 

Wanda Vision one-click from Manta Lab. Thanks to @Masterblasterand crew for the group buy and safe and fast shipping on this beauty. Another winner from Manta. One-Click box is nice and has extra room for a Steelbook or small slip. I'm going to put the Wanda Vision 4k Steelbook in there. Steelbook is good. Both the Double-Lenti and the Full- Slip are top notch. There's not much for extras, but that doesn't bother me too much. I actually like this set a little more than Multiverse of Madness. I would have more hyperbole but I'm watching my 49ers play like crap against the Vikings right now and I can't concentrate. 😂 #Teamopenitup 

Moonage Daydream and Akira Kurosawa's Dreams from the Criterion Collection. 

I was able to order this beauty just now. The Best Buy exclusive was available for about 7 seconds a few days ago, so I couldn't snag one.

heard there were mixed feelings on this one. haven't seen it yet I bowed out after endgame.

There have been some good to great movies and shows since Endgame: Shang-Chi, Spider-Man No Way Home, Wanda Vision, Loki, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. But alot of meh to crap as well: Love & Thunder, She Hulk, Secret Invasion, Black Widow etc. 

While the one click, Lenti, and Full Slip are just meh IMO, I'll admit that it's a great looking Steelbook and Double-Lenti. I have the Best Buy exclusive steel that has the same art as the Double-Lenti. 

But, again IMO, this movie is the definition of complete and utter s***e. One of the worst MCU movies/shows I've seen, right up there with She Hulk. Even Chris Hemsworth has mentioned he disliked this movie. 

The only reason I even have the Steelbook is because I have every MCU release and the hoarder in me could not leave my collection incomplete. 

What I would like to see Manta do next for this line, if they are insistent on Marvel, is a Loki Season 1 boxset or a Shang Chi set. 

Ordered all three! Loved this one even more than the classic first movie. 

@Masterblaster PM reminder. 

I ordered this direct from Neon. Would have preferred to use Diabolik DVD, and saved $5.00 shipping as well, but such is life. I'll add this proudly to my 6-7 other versions of this classic!

More Manta Lab. Great Flip-Flop Lenti on Wanda Vision. The OC has the same size as OCs for 3 Editions, does anyone know how that space is filled in this one?

 

Also the last Volume for Monster 😃

 

If room permits, I will probably put the upcoming WWA 4k Steelbook inside my Wanda Vision one-click. 

@Hollywood E Rock @nathan_s82 I joined the Group Buy when it opened, but have not received a Club Membership.

Today's delivery Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness One Click from Manta Lab. Thanks to @Masterblasterand crew for the super fast and safe shipping. Thanks to my brain for deciding to buy this. But perhaps most importantly, thanks to my wife for not killing me in my sleep after bringing home another one click. 

This is another good release from Manta. The pictures don't do this release justice, as the Double-Lenti in particular is quite stunning in motion. The Lenti on the one click was very good. I was very apprehensive about it but was pleasantly surprised at the quality.

I wouldn't put this up there with some of the other Manta releases in the last year or so, that I own (2001, Leon, Inception etc.) but good nonetheless.

You're absolutely right! And OC boxes, too, if you ask me. 

 

I remember when I first came into the game, Blufans was the top dawg. WeET had just put out their first OC, Captain America: Civil War, which didn't even have a box; it was really just more like a continuation of the KimchiDVD slips. (Which btw, I still don't understand the dynamic between Kimchi, WeET, and SM Life. Lol)

 

Then came GotG Vol. 2. It was nice. But we'd later see this was almost like a trial run. The box was mostly just a Blufans design. Then came Black Panther and that REALLY set them apart. It was a bigger box and held 4 editions instead of 3. And the design of this release was simplistically masterful. I thought to myself, if this is any indication of what's to come, they're going to be making a legitimate run at the title. And that's exactly what happened. 

 

For comparison purposes, this is my digital collection. WeET not only has the best designs, but they're putting out volume, too. I really would've loved to see Novamedia continue their Marvel line. The only 2 they did were amazing designs as well. (And the handful of other releases without a box were incredible, too.) Now let's see what Manta Lab is gonna give us!

 

How'd you come up with the digital collection picture? 

Received today.

A couple of pickups.

Hello i was wondering if i havent gotten a club invite by now if that means i wont be able to get into the groupbuy. i also havent gotten one for the manta spidey

 

cheers
 

 

@swish @Gary K

You no longer get an invite to your Group Buy Clubs. Instead, we are now automatically placed in the Club within 24-48 hours after placing our order. Check Clubs, filter it to your Clubs, then they should both be there.

Edition A

 

 

Edition B

 

Since the B's have changed, are we still locked into our A or B choice? I know you have to go all A or all B.

Kind of funny how both Manta & WeET revealed their beauty shots on the same day. Wonder if they were both waiting to see who would release there’s first.

Might have been the case. I also can't remember the last time we had two high profile Group Buys on the same day. 

I saw the alert for this before WeET Homecoming, and immediately ordered a one-click. No offense to Manta Lab, as it looks like they have done another Spectacular (pun intended) job, but after seeing the beauty shots of Spider-Man Homecoming from WeET, it made me second guess whether I should have just waited for a WeET No Way Home. 

I'll reserve final judgment until I have them in hand, but this looks like another winner from WeET. They make the best one click boxes in the premium game, and their slip art choices are usually on point. Now let's see how they do with Far From Home and No Way Home, which have less quality art to choose from IMO.
