Manta Lab x Disney

[IRON MAN]

Posting here for visibility. Feel free to discuss.

Hi guys, this is John and I hope everyone is doing well. Today, I am very excited and happy to make an announcement that from July, we have become a Consumer Product Licensee for The Walt Disney Company Hong Kong.

More updates and news related to this news will be posted but the biggest reason why we obtained the license was to create Marvel Steelbooks.

More info and details will be shared soon.

Thank you very much.
John

I’d like releases for:

- Daredevil Netflix Series
- Punisher Netflix Series

Daredevils are released already.

 

[Flloydo]

I also hope this don’t affect them releasing DC films in the future

 

[IRON MAN]

That's all I want to know. Does this impact them releasing DC/WB titles?.

It doesn’t.

 

[Acalica917]

Daredevils are released already.

I’d like Premium Manta Lab releases, mate.

WOW, more Marvel. WOW, more shite... WOW, didn't think I would ever pass on a ML releases, guess what...

same here, so far i have all ml exlusives, but will skip the disney ones (exception: star wars & fox titles)

First of all, release TDK trilogy, Matrix trilogy, 2001: a space odyssey, Leon the professional, the fifth element, and all QT’s movies they promised. Then release pirates of Caribbean instead of these Marvel movies.

this!

Disney animated classics would be awesome too

I'd definitely welcome some premium editions for those!

 

[Flloydo]

I’d also welcome some Disney animations, Pixar and Disney live actions that have never had premiums and/or proper steel releases. Stuff like return to oz, ratatouille, Robin Hood, Alice in wonderland, flight of the navigator, the muppets Christmas carol, Hercules, All 4 Toy story’s, spirited away etc to name a few. Although some of those zavvi Disney Collection steels would be hard to beat. I doubt those films will get touched though

 

[Behold]

Such a shame their main objective and motive is Marvel. I have now doubt they’ll do some incredible things with them, but maybe let’s sort out Matrix Trilogy and Kill Bill first, please?

I knew there was a good reason to not be a single edition marvel collector, and this is it.

Can you imagine if they just did phase releases instead of singles?!

 

[Blazerfires]

Hopefully that means Manta Lab can finally do their Kingsman: The Golden Circle steelbook

 

[Billy Talent]

So many things they can do! Would love a Avatar or a Pirates of the Caribbean set, if only someone made a Tron Legacy set!
Let's hope Manta is gonna avoid marvel

 

[tha_lunatic]

feck disney animated movies... give me the movies for real men, e.g. aliens, big trouble in little china, the fly (86), highlander, rapid fire, speed 1, etc.

 

[Headhunter]

Tron Legacy… with soundtrack(s) please

 

[Mararagan]

I have mixed feelings as well about this good news. Yes i would like a premium version for IM, IM2, IM3, Thor, Dr. Strange and Ant Man as for the rest, i believe enough is enough already
I would love premiums for the Pirates of the Caribbean saga also @MajimaGoro

 

[Mokum]

big trouble in little china

We badly need a premium edition of this film.

 

[Space Cadet]

Does this mean new Marvel etc steels are/must be premium ? I would be happy just to get lenti steels for TV shows I've mentioned.

 

[Robsonmonkey]

This is going to be such a stupid question, but I assumed they weren't doing deals with China anymore which is why I was told a little while ago why Blufans hadn't done an Endgame steelbook. Have I got this wrong? Sorry I'm not up to date on th situation.

I wouldn't mind if they did an actual completed Disney Collection unlike Zavvi would kept chopping and changing styles/designs then world wide releases got the same title-less / spine-less artwork

Star Wars would be great as we had that awful Vader Disco Ball head

I'd prefer if they focused on lesser known titles though, if that's possible.
