I sent them another e-mail. If no response in 48 hours I will start the chargeback process. Since they charged us when we pre-ordered, that window is getting shorter and shorter. I urge anyone else who bought these discs to contact:

Man, you seem to have gotten lucky. I haven't received mine either.

DVDs or BDs?

Argg. I tried calling and they were closed. I'll try tomorrow.

Still nothing for me yet either. I'm starting to think they're just going to wait out that chargeback window now.

Gizmo 08-19-10 07:03 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Called. They said they are still waiting on replacements which should be available in 1-2 weeks. Still? It came out a month ago to the general public. I'll give them 1 week before I call back again and either demand replacements be sent out or file a charge back.

Then how did LosingMyMind get replacements already? Sounds like they are jerking us off.

Just to be safe, did you actually get fixed discs, LosingMyMind? Or did they just send you the same versions over again?

How many orders have you placed with them? I've only made about 4 or so but I've blown almost 500.00 for those combined.

Still waiting on part of my order from July 16th.

ChrisHicks 09-10-10 02:05 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Anyone get their replacements yet?

Gizmo 09-12-10 12:48 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Nope. I called on Wednesday and they said they are getting their discs in soon and mine should arrive anyday. Of course, I'm 30 minutes from them and I still don't have them so I will call again tomorrow and tell them if I don't have them by Friday I will start the chargeback. It's fucking nuts that we paid top dollar for these discs and 3 months later still have a defective product.

ChrisHicks 10-07-10 08:38 AM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
I'm guessing with the lack of update no one received a replacement yet?

Gizmo 10-07-10 08:56 AM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Nope. I'll call today and rip them a new one.

I got mine in a white bubblepack envelope yesterday. Anyone else got their replacements?

ChrisHicks 10-09-10 05:35 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
^^ I got mine in the mail today. To be honest I really didn't think I'd get them. If they are actually corrected versions I'll give Full Moon a big thumbs up even if it took a few months.

Gizmo 10-09-10 05:43 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
I got mine. I'll never order from them again. Not only did we pay a premium to get them early, they sent the box sets out late and continued to sell the corrected versions for months before boxset people got replacements.

Yeah, when they screw customers who bought the boxset then it's time for them to re-examine how they do business.

Did they actually fix everything though?

I received mine as well and to think that I actually given up hope.

I have not even popped them in yet. I'm still pissed I had to wait 3 months for replacements.

Gizmo 10-16-10 02:57 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
...and the new discs are even more fucked up. Constant freezes every 5-10 seconds. This just rocks. Full Moon, go fuck yourselves.

LG BD590. And yep. The old disc didn't do it.

Sorry you had to go through this, Gizmo. It definitely makes me more wary if/when I buy any of their BDs.

They don't have any other BDs announced (or planned that I know of). Of course, I'll never order anything from them again.

Just saw them today at a sci-fi/horror con. They were selling individual DVDs for $10 when the e-mail they sent out today says $6.66 each. I asked about the Axis box sets and both the DVD one and the BR one are around the 8xx's right now so I think they will be part of a 50% off free shipping sale at some point.

I also asked the guy about the audio issue and he had no idea what I was talking about.

These are in another thread but I think they fit in better over here (2 items signed by Charles Band and Charles Band talking to Joe Bob Briggs).

Subspecies in blu makes me drool, but after their last release, I am going to wait for some reviews before i whip out my credit card for this one.

SterlingBen 07-07-11 07:38 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
One of the rare older Full moon films I haven't seen. Will be picking this one up when my Evergreen card renews next year + 50% off free shipping sale.

Here's hoping they start delving into the 80's stuff.

asianxcore 07-08-11 02:53 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
I really, really hope that they don't mess Subspecies up.

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Awesome news! I dig the Subspecies series, and I'd like to see the rest hit BD at some point.

Mods: can we get a thread title change to make this the official Full Moon Pictures Blu-ray thread? Seems like it's going to become that anyway.

Eric D. 07-08-11 06:38 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Hopefully this won't be plagued with issues like the Puppet Master titles.

With a few exceptions like the first Trancers film, Charles Band/Full Moon doesn't own the Empire Pictures titles from 1983-1991, MGM does.

They do own some of the earlier Charles Band films from the 70s and early 80s, like Laserblast and Parasite.

On a related note, what Full Moon DVDs had substantial extras aside from recycling old Video Zine segments? I know there were Collector's Editions of films like Retro Puppet Master and Subspecies IV that had audio commentaries from the directors. Anything else?

Tourist Trap had a great audio commentary.

asianxcore 07-20-11 04:00 PM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Obviously is an improvement on the old DVD, but since it's Full Moon, I'll wait on the final product for any other comments :)

joltman 07-21-11 08:36 AM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
Sorry to be 'that guy', but shouldn't the thread title be changed to a general Full Moon thread, or else move Subspecies talk to its own thread?

RocShemp 07-22-11 06:41 AM

Re: Puppet Master and Puppet Master: Axis of Evil Coming to BLu-Ray
 
I always liked the Subspecies series but was always bothered by how a certain major conflict in the first film
Spoiler:
(Radu versus Stefan)
was resolved in such an anticlimactic manner at the beginning of the second film.

But it was cool how each subsequent film (with the exception of the fourth film - when in the story does that even fit?) picked up exactly were the previous films left off.

Bumping the review for anyone who was planning on picking this up.

Going to get it no matter what. Will never be released again and would like to have the rest come out some time also, never going to happen if no one buys this one.
