FWIW, the OC run was increased from 400 to 500 (at least that's what the Manta page shows).

If later confirmed it would spell more trouble to sell the singles than at 400 OC. They're all available still

Is this not the norm with Manta? I thought these would all sell out in a few hours.

I guess I wrongly assumed this would be a popular title! Lol

Season 1 is a masterpiece. Also one of my favourites as a stand alone. Season 2 is ok but I only just watched season 3 last week (which is why I rewatched season 1 after) and it was great. Not sure why I put it off for 3 years!

OT: I'm still hoping for a Digipak release in the US like they had for S1 and S2. They were spectacular!

... although I have to admit my faith is dwindling by now.

They look very cool. I was hoping they would continue the steels with the mondo art. I’d happily buy season 2 and 3. First one is awesome

The movie was bombing so hard in the US they temporarily changed its title and it didn’t make enough money to even be profitable. COVID-19 didn’t help but BoP already was disappointing well before then.

I like the movie and this release has potential to be really amazing but I’m not surprised it’s ML’s slowest seller that I can recall.

Also with the way joker slips turned out, certain art choices with it and OUATIH and the finishes - particularly joker, then that may of had an affect on sales too.

Whilst OUATIH has grown on me as a whole and the finishes are better than joker, I do really like all the art choices with this one. I really hope they go back to how they were on finishes. Plus the lentis are so much brighter than joker they should look good

No more joker esque releases please, the steel is nice in hand but the slip finishes and lentis are a huge let down. Even the SL because it’s so dark




I feel like I said joker and finishes too many times

Spoiler

Joker.... Finishes

CM hasn’t sold out any at this time, 5h since live. Their print run is roughly half of Manta’s. They’re both going to end up selling out but this isn’t a very popular film, that is clear.

For me there are 2 things that kinda ruin the film. 1st could of been less of something and 2nd more of something. But other than that it’s still decent. She’s the only thing I liked about suicide squad anyway so I’m glad she got her own film


My 2 issues:

Spoiler

Less narration and more Bruce. Simple

I guess I’ll grab those singles on the Christmas Sale.

Right, I forgot about the Mondo steel for season 1. Even though I'd prefer a third Digipak, I'd also buy the steels if only they did both seasons.

Also with the way joker slips turned out, certain art choices with it and OUATIH and the finishes - particularly joker, then that may of had an affect on sales too.

That's what I'm thinking, too.

I appreciate everyone’s input! I definitely have a lot to learn.

The question is when... The Mule was pushed back to August, and still there are other releases that go out before such Hobbs&Shawn, Jumanji or Joker

Anyway, even if it's in a few months, people could still be waiting for it...

 

[Blazerfires]

Full Slip sold out as well now.
