Amazon will go live in next few days/weeks

The amazon price will start at MRSP $59.95 you won't end paying that higher price

Is it easier to import to the UK with Amazon or direct from Arrow. Just wonder if the packaging might be better with Arrow. Does anybody know ?

Has anyone tried to fit a steelbook in the single release of conan the barbarian ?
thanks
A SteelBook would fit as it’s a Slipbox that has space for separate amaray case + booklet + poster

You might need to remove the amaray case and poster if it’s a tight fit
