A Blu-ray box set with all films restored and the new one, and I'm game.

RocShemp

Sweet. I'd be in for the early movies.

I just received an email from them pimping out their trunk sets that are going on sale soon, and noticed this:
Um....hasn't Puppet Master always been 4:3?

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

Nope. I have a widescreen print from Europe and it was also widescreen when it was shown on one of the HD channels.

joltman

Is it just a cropped version of the 4:3?

joltman

The latest email states PM: Axis of Evil won't be available on its own until July and the 'remastered' 16:9 version of the original Puppet Master will be available on its own around Halloween.

Gizmo

Pre-sale is already up. I came into some extra cash, so I ordered a BD set. I'm such a whore.

Gizmo

Ordering now still says : AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER 3-18 on the item. Hope I placed mine right...

atreyurock

Not sure if im placing an order just yet, but if anyone is looking for an archive box set pm me I got an extra one not signed or numbered though.

Gizmo

Small FYI - They already charged my credit card.

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

Not sure. I'll try to remember to pull it out tonight and check.

I'm thinking of holding off. The only limited thing would have to be the trunks since they're selling two different products inside yet they only have one limited edition counter.

I'll just wait for the blu-ray set that'll come out with all the films.

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

Here's some screenshots from the widescreen dvd I was talking about earlier

asianxcore

What country is the DVD you were talking about from?

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

Agh, by DVD I mean MonsterHD. Then I did a disc from my Tivo.

joltman

Wow....I'm really surprised. So all this time, we've had a chopped 4:3?!?!?!? I just assumed it was filmed that way.

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

The question is, are all the other movies also chopped? Not just PM but Subspecies and such.

asianxcore

Thanks for the heads up!

Damn, now I'll have to shell out for the Puppet Master BD

I ordered my set when it was first announced and can't wait for it to ship.

I also remember catching the film in widescreen on Monsters HD and it looked great. That was seriously the best channel around and I'm still upset that it's gone. At least I was able to record Fright Night Part II in OAR before the channel got cancelled. What a shame.

BEST NEWS OF THE YEAR! HELL, THE DECADE.

I guess I'll just buy the separate Axis of Evil and PM1 Blu-rays. Hopefully all the other PM films won't take too long to come out on Blu. Is it too much to hope for deleted scenes and commentary and such?

Gizmo

Looks like this should be shipping soon...anyone heard any more in this? The site shows it as In Stock.

Gizmo

So it's the 15th and no shipping confirmation.... Do they have a forum anywhere?

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

They don't send out shipping confirmations on orders.

The Man with the Golden Doujinshi

They send out order confirmations but nothing other than that, unless I've never gotten any for some reason(I keep all my emails).

The only shipping confirmation sent out so far was the thing from Charles Band in his newsletter, or whatever it's called, saying they've just started to ship.

therock69

anyones trunk cases ship out yet mine still says in process also this is kinda getting ridiculous

Gizmo

Still nothing. I'll go ahead and file a claim with Visa shortly. Ridiculous.
