Released on 12/12 cannot believe how fast #001 Blade Runner is almost out of their 3000 copies… glad I got all 4… they are worth the extra $ IMO, but on “ Rarewaves” website they list sold out but their ebay page still lists available at about $130 , which lately most for sale are $300 and up! dang! If any one interested.

Classic Films

Here is an unboxing video of these sets.

They really look and feel like you get you what you are paying for in a Special Limited Edition! Can’t wait to see what titles might follow.

The future of physical media, unfortunately.

“Cmon man”…to each his own no?

Bonus content or just swag ?

DVD Polizei

Being able to play a movie over and over and over, versus having it on "digital" and never knowing when it would expire and also worrying about internet connection speeds.

Physical wins every single time. At least for me.

smurrlock

Absolutely agree!

Looks like Vinegar Syndrome's clasp box releases but with better movies.

I wasn't slagging physical media, but these pricey deluxe sets will soon become the only way to acquire physical copies. The music industry has already gone through their media cycle and we'll likely be there in the States within a year or two.

kool, yeah possibly… but for a guy in his 60’s who looks back on his “ collecting “ history… NOT from a monetary pov but if I only still had the many, um lets see from 16 mm tape reels of, stooges, classic monsters, scale models of movie / music / TV, etc, and on… just from at least from this collector’s pov, these recent releases just seem like true deluxe editions, with beautiful art work and packaging , without over doin it on the swag imo-
have a safe & happy year y’all & prosperous dvd collecting this year.

Kinda glad Blade Runner sold out otherwise I’d be really tempted to pick up all four. I would have grabbed them immediately if they weren’t so fucking big. I think they’re too tall to fit on my shelves.

How about Tim Burton’s Batman in a “ Vault” series?

smurrlock

Just wondering…do you???, as I do have quite a few Box sets I’ve collected , that surely do not fit on a “ standard” video media shelf,much larger than these… solution… find or build an appropriate shelf! Works for me great! They are out there but again, to each his own.

I have a media room that essentially houses my movie collection with shelves built to fit. I have plenty of oversized or oddly shaped sets, however those spots are quickly running out.
Knowing my urges, I thought it was best to not jump into this collection. I’m assuming there will be more than four, which means I’d want to continue.
