My Shipping Notification for Cinemuseum Jaws showed up tonight.  In so hyped for this.   

I absolutely LURVE mine! 

You will hopefully be pleasantly surprised at how beautimous and wonderful it is!

According to the updated beauty shots, each of the individual full slips is going to contain a monolith with a base. Do these monoliths look strikingly similar to the one that is in the Manta Lab one-click that just came to my door (and a good many of your doors, too)?  

Also, anybody wanna speculate what the deal is with the “lunar base soundbar”? I can’t imagine that this little thingy or whatever it is would ever take the place of my surround sound system, but you never know…

Looking forward to this!

I've yet to see any of the big Jurrassic Park Trilogy UHD Club one-click boxes on the secondary market.  Maybe John has one lying around.....

.....yeah, maybe he does!

I like this steelbook! It would seem that I also like the film much more than a majority of viewers here. It's a quality pre-quel, and it's got my favorite scream queen in the main role.

This is a must have for me! 😁

 

Expect more details on the editions and goodies in the next few days.

This is fantastic news, I will gladly add this to the WCL and Manta Lab one-click in my collection.

@R1s1ngs0n, @hansreinhardt, @Sidewinder, @BreakBeatDJ, and @Manticore4 kind of shocked no one except for @Manticore4 has taken a guess.  Unlike @R1s1ngs0n's "easy" ones, this one actually should be easy.

 

Who's gonna guess it first?

 

 

 

There's also a new 22-disc set (Blu-ray only) that surveys Wim Wenders' entire career issued by Curzon. It includes three posters and 5 Polaroid photographs from Wenders' personal collection. The box housing the set is about the same size as the recent Shawscope editions from Arrow Academy. (NOTE: this larger set only contains the standard Blu-ray disc of WINGS OF DESIRE, but I included the 4K steelbook of it for size reference). 

Here's a new limited edition 4K steelbook of Wim Wenders' 1987 film, DER HIMMEL ÜBER BERLIN (aka WINGS OF DESIRE) from Curzon in the UK. It includes just a 4K disc, no inserts or other printed materials (other than the J-card shown).

Looks great, but I'm still undecided about this

Oh, my man @tr0llhatt, this is one movie that BEGS for multiple premium editions! The film is so visually stunning, and it lends itself well to these big box graphics.

I'm so glad they are including two still frames, they look really great (at this distance).

I also like what looks like a glow-in-the-dark dealio:
