missed it :( so it means better release but no signed poster and not super limited like the US slipcover version

Might get a Zavvi exclusive steel and a booklet or something.

And while we are talking 50s sci-fi. Arrow should release The Incredible Shrinking Man 4k. In a super duper collector's edition, with thick booklet featuring hand drawn storyboard and photos from the sett + never seen extras and the original novel, signed by the late Richard Matheson.
 
I would love to know what happened to the restoration Ignite were doing for the 1962 classic Day of the Triffids, that was on the cards for a long time and now it's off the radar. If ever a film needed a serious overhaul it was the one.
