Dear Collectors,

we kindly inform you about the current dates of the expedition and the preparation schedule of editions ahead of us.

This week we were supposed to start shipping FAC 128 SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME MANIACS BOXES, but the delivery of holograms has been postponed, so far it seems to be delayed for about 14 days due to spring holidays and partly due to the beginning of spreading coronavirus to the Czech Republic and other European Union countries.

Except for the holograms, everything is ready for the MANIACS BOXES SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME.

Due to the postponement of the expedition of the SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME boxes we are also postponing the start of pre-orders and expedition of FAC #127 GHOST IN THE SHELL and FAC #129 THE ROCKETMAN editions by 14 days. We would like to have these two editions ready in the week when we launch pre-orders. We will present both these editions this week.

We originally planned to book March's capacity for the editions of BLACK BARONS #22 STEPHEN KING'S IT (1990), BB #23 STEPHEN KING'S IT (2017), BB #24 STANLEY KUBRICK'S THE SHINING, BB #25 THE EXORCIST Extended Director's Cut. Editions No. 22, 24, and 25 have been approved, edition No. 23 awaiting approval. The positive news is progress in approval of BB #7 13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI. This edition is not yet timelined but will be finally introduced in the coming weeks.

After the BLACK BARONS #22 - 25 premium editions, we will introduce FAC editions THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS 2, FAST AND FURIOUS PRESENTS: HOBBS AND SHAW, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: FALLOUT. The components of these editions have been approved and we will show them to you soon. If we manage everything right, some of these editions might go on sale in April. If there are any delays, we will start selling them in May 2020.

For technical reasons, we are postponing the release of exclusive editions PREDATOR (1987) for May / June, mainly due to the long tuning of the embossing tool and the related shift in the delivery of this exclusive SteelBook.

Thank you very much for your cooperation and support.
Stay tuned and wait for the gradual introduction of your expected editions.

Yours sincerely,
Team FA

Dear Collectors,

let us inform you about the titles that will be scheduled for pre-orders in the next week and also a little about the background of further preparations.

Next week we will launch pre-orders for titles:

FAC #133 INCEPTION
FAC #134 JAWS
FAC #135 THE BREAKFAST CLUB
BB #26 IT CHAPTER TWO E1 (HARDBOX GIFT for purchasing E1 + E2)
BB #26 IT CHAPTER TWO E2 (HARDBOX GIFT for purchasing E1 + E2)

Some time ago we announced that the 134th title should be X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX, but we still had to postpone this plan for a while. During June - August, the Fox studio will go under the MagicBox distribution, and what we haven't managed to release yet, it will be necessary to approve it once again under the new distributor. Thus, not only DARK PHOENIX but also the exclusive PREDATOR will undergo a repeated approval process.

Please allow us to thank Bontonfilm for their long-term cooperation. We have made a lot of beautiful editions together that will remain unforgettable.

As mentioned above, from September 2020, the titles of the Fox studio will be transferred to the major Czechoslovak distributor MagicBox, who will further represent the WARNER BROS., UNIVERSAL, DISNEY, FOX, PARAMOUNT studios. The only studio that will not be represented in our territory until February 2021 will be the SONY studio. If the SONY studio makes an agreement with MagicBox by the end of this year, the new collaboration could slowly start in the old dormitories from February 2021.

Due to waiting for a repeated approval process, we have decided to postpone the X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX title indefinitely. In its place, we decided to deploy the premium edition JAWS, released for the 45th anniversary of this film.

We will introduce the premium editions of JAWS, THE BREAKFAST CLUB, and IT CHAPTER TWO to you by the end of this week.

We are preparing other great shots for you in the next weeks and months.

We look forward to your orders.

Thank you for your support and cooperation.

Kind regards,
The FA team

I hope the fact that Disney has now taken over Fox since this had first been announced isn't going to be a problem......? :(

They had the proofs in hand and all ready to go. Can't believe they needed re-approval.

Sadly, the Fox properties are going to be verrrrry low on the totem pole. The recent 4K releases of movies like SPEED and HEAT had already been done before Disney aquired Fox. I hope I am proven wrong on this - since there are many films in the Fox stable that need attention (DIE HARD has never been given a proper remaster).
