Dear Customers,

We apologize for the delay with the [ME#29] Joker Shipment. We wanted to ship them out on schedule but due to many reasons, we couldn't do so. However, we have found solution for our shipping now. Please read more about our June news.

1. Joker Delivery Delay
- One Click Reprint: During packing, we have found a problem with the One Click Box and we have decided to reprint the entire batch of boxes again to ensure the quality of the box. For the box orders, we expect it to be reprinted in 3 weeks and ship them on 29th of June. Again, we apologize for the delay.
Single slip shipment: DHL offers a shipping to regions that were suspended or blocked by Post office and we are happy that all shipments (except for box) will begin this week. Due to finding the reliable shipment company was the reason why we couldn't ship our products and the late delivery from Manta Lab. We are happy to announce that all slip shipments will be shipped by this week. Again, we apologize for the delay with shipments and we will bear the higher cost of using DHL for our shipments for this release.

2. Once Upon... Steelbook Delivery
- More regions opening with Post Office: From June, more regions are opening with Airmails and we believe shipments will not be a problem. Also, we have DHL agent to ship our goods now so it won't be a problem with shipping.
- Production Schedule: Everything is on time and we expect things to start shipping out before the release date.

3. Birds of Prey Pre-order
- Pre-order Schedule: We expect to have a pre-order in the first week of July but we want to finalize shipping for Joker first before confirming the date.
- Shipping issues: Again, DHL and Post Office will be ready by July to cover all regions. We may need to recalculate the shipping cost again to adjust our current shipping cost but we expect the cost to be not too different from using Post Office. However, there's extra fee involved with current shipping situation so recalculation of shipping fee may be needed from our side.

4. 2020 Schedule

- Many great releases: You may refer to the other image for the releases that are under designing with Manta Lab. Some may be able to release and some may not due to approval and design issues.

Thank you very much.
Collectong.

The one I’m looking the most forward to

Planned release overload though. Too much for one day (although birds of prey has already been announced and WW & Tenet won’t be this year)

They even say in their post that some of these might never actually happen, all of these threads should be changed to possible. Knowing your luck this'll be the one that doesn't happen :LOL::rofl:
 
Dear collectors,

I may (or may not) be starting my own premium steelbook company at some point this year (or next year). If I do, I will plan to release really amazing editions of all the movies you most love (if I can; but I also might not) and that already have premium steelbook editions.

Stay tuned—group buys will be opening soon!

Thank you for your support!

I mean 2 of the films aren’t even out yet :LOL:

I’ve always found it weird to have steelbook threads for films that aren’t out yet.

Yeah most likely. I’m still interested in them all and to see what they come up with but at least 4 of them I can do without. I get that they might want to do a whole Tarantino set but nova smashed it with kill Bill 1,2 and pulp fiction. Dunkirk is surely dead in the water
 
I like all 3 and I'm not even claiming the title. Are you sure you're no. 1?

Nah I can handle all 3. The second is decent as a action film. The 3rd is pony but I like the war fight And the machine city. They ruined the whole story with the other 2 films though.

Ohhh it’s the Oracle vs the architect each time and it’s happened about 7 times before?!?!? F**k off lol

but the first is king.
 
  • Haha
Reactions: milky and DMD4k
Pulp Fiction and the 2 Kill Bills: yes, because I don't have those from Novamedia's but is any other collector ready to double dip? They seem to be quite nice release already.
Matrix: f**k yeah!
Dunkirk: the project has been rejected sometimes already, maybe something has changed now? I hope Tenet won't follow the same route...
Her: I really didn't like the film so much TBH.
WW84: it's DC, we'll get it.
Drive: nice, mostly because I didn't like Novamedia's pink slip/slim lenti too much.
Blade Runner: yes please even if this would be the 99th copy from a different retailer.
Crimes of Grindelwald: just to complete the serie.

Anyway it's Manta, I'll get every single release from them, no matter what ahah.
 
i know, the sequels arent in the same league as the first one, but i like them

I’d still be happy for them to do all 3. I was just making a point that the other 2 aren’t in the same league too. But I’d still welcome a full set. Happy they are carrying on fantastic beasts. Wish they would with kingsman
