China hikes tariffs on US goods to 125 percent, hitting back at Trump

These are the updates for Friday, April 11, 2025, as US stock markets ended on a slight upswing after a turbulent week.

www.aljazeera.com

Starting today, Chinese Hollywood movies and American products will be subject to increased tariffs.
So will Manta Lab Steelbook be all shut down????
or still sell only steelbook case???? Lol

Why would they be shut down? There's no difference to their operations. The tax is for US imports, manta aren't importing anything from the US. It's the same on the other end as well, the shipping of manta lab titles should only impact US buyers who are importing, as they'll have to pay trump's tax now too. Blufans have ceased US shipping out of China for the moment, there's no word on whether Manta will do this as well.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
That's going to be tough in the US.
I wonder if Manta Lab will be impossible shipped to the US soon.
But will Hollywood companies be free to license movie designs????
Since Hollywood movies were rejected in China,
I wonder if Hong Kong will follow China's business.

Arrived in the U.K. today with delivery for Monday but I’m away this week so will pick it up from my neighbour next weekend. Not the most exciting delivery but I’m sure it will look good in hand

Mine's in the UK now, too. Delivery Monday. I went for DLA and the FS. I couldn't decide, but I'll only be keeping the one.

My DLA and FS have arrived. FS is boring, and I shouldn't have bothered with it. I'm not even opening it lol onto ebay it goes..

DLA looks decent. Good depth, colour & clarity on both sides.

Glad the DLA turned out nice. Neighbour took mine this morning

Yep, definitely the better of the two. Steel is a beauty as well.

The OC is better than I expected, it looked a bit mundane in the mock ups but I kinda appreciate the reserved design in this case? The paintbrush strokes have a rough texture to them, hard to notice as they're the same colour as the background but it's a nice little touch.

In hand I'm not sure which slip I like best, will have to mull this crucial matter over...

The front of the OC looks really sharp from the picture with a great colour Balance.
Would be great if you could post some pictures from the Fullslips as well

I haven't opened anything so I wasn't going to bother but I'll stick them in the spoiler.

The blue lenti looks like it could be winner. Damn.

If there’s still no open pics posted by Saturday I’ll take some of DL A, steel and extras

I think it has the weakest back but I'm leaning towards DL-A because it matches up so well to the first film's DL.

I think I'd probably agree DL-B is the best individually though.
