Yes, but all 7 for GBP 112 (sans code) is a bit rich.
Should be GBP 11.99 each max at pre-order (imo)
Specially commissioned artwork which should look good in a zero or satin finish and as artwork is so packed on the front and insides I think I can excuse the lack thereof on the back.
What I cannot excuse is that the set is incomplete.
Why 7 and not 8 steelbooks?
Why no PHANTOM OF THE OPERA (1943) as included in the 8-film Universal Monsters Coffin Collection / Essential Collection etc.?
As it stands there's a bunch of films from the early 1930's and one from the 1950's but nothing from the 1940's.
Possible reasons for this (?):
- Universal are not going to remake PHANTOM along with the others
- There have been SO MANY films inspired by the PotO book (1901) by Gaston Leroux - apparently over 30 (I'm only familiar with 5 of them on Blu-ray - 1925 with Lon Chaney, 1943 with Claude Rains, 1962 with Herbert Lom, and 1989 with Robert Englund) as well as years of shows in the theatre Maybe Universal felt they could add nothing new to the saga.
- I'm thinking PHANTOM would be the most expensive in the collection to produce what with those spectacular sets etc. but then again I read somewhere that the interior of the Paris Opera House used in the 1925 and 1943 films still exists . . . but probably now at almost 100 years of age a bit the worse for wear.
