As an Aussie, Umbrella have been the saviour to us local collectors for the last two decades. I'm always impressed by what they release. The VHS was probably the main reason I purchased this set. I also bought the censored T-shirt. I enjoyed your video. Straight to the point. No bs.
Hey Dan! Thank you for the feedback! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. And yeah, umbrella has been great for Australia for sure! I’ve had the opportunity of meeting fellow Aussie collectors whenever I go back to Perth (My wife’s Aussie) and they have always raved about Umbrella. Rightfully so, they have some amazing releases. Just really hoping they figure something out for us international buyers In terms of shipping. I have a few more orders from them on the way which I’m very excited for.
I had a similar ding on my box as well due to the paper thin box I reached out with pictures and they sent me some money back so good on them for that.
Too bad your package of this was flawed, but happy you liked the set. Mine should ship to me 7 days from now, and really excited to have this in my hands.
@@joshfulcifan1015 that’s amazing! Thank you so much for subscribing! Glad you enjoyed the videos! Yeah, it’s been hit or miss with the packaging. The first order I placed with them was fine. Second was good as well. The 3rd came damaged, had to get it replaced, and this one came the way you saw. Hopefully my next order doesn’t come in pieces! lol
i agree with everything you said especially the shipping package. i was so worried that something wouldve been badly damaged cause even the box was messed up like yours but luckily when i opened it everything was fine. wont be that lucky everytime though
@@ryantalksphysicalmedia thanks so much for subscribing! Just checked out your channel as well, subbed as well! Us physical media guys gotta stick together! 🤓
I didn't need the glasses or the Legos so I went with the little cheaper one. I truly can't wait for this. This would've been my #1 set for 2024 but I didn't get it in 2024 🤣 I love the extras with the art cards and stickers and stuff. idk why though but I do haha
I want this so bad!! But that really stinks about the shipping. I’ve heard a few other people have the same issue… The VHS is 😍 and those slipcovers are gorgeous. Thank you for making this video!
@@ScreenCentered yeah. This is now my second time I’ve had this happen with the shipping. The last time it occurred an item was damaged and had to be replaced. And yes, the slipcovers are amazing for sure!
I went for the cheaper option I have nothing to play VHS in anymore wasn't bothered about the Sunglasses and that pathetic Art Brick Set was of no interest to me at all
Umbrella has had good boxes. They changed warehouse and they had the bad boxes, looks like they’re still trying to get rid of the bad ones. I got their late night with the devil set in a week or 2 ago and it came in a great box and packaged great too
Yeah, they had made that announcement on their IG. Interesting because I received their late night with the devil damaged. The vhs tape was in pieces when i opened the box, that was my first bad experience. But the super Mario one was perfect though… I’m waiting on one more from them, curious to see what they do with this one….
I prefer this release over the US release but it’s still not “perfect” you still have all the digital grain obviously added for the aesthetic, but the blacks look much better, highlights are intentionally blown out and the color saturation feels more filmic. It’s a bit brighter too at moments. The audio in my opinion is the best part of it. Clearer and crunchier sounds than the US release. I’m running 9.1 Dolby Atmos with definitive speakers and it hits hard. Dialogue is clear as well.
I'm hoping part 3 gets another US release (maybe extended edition?) in the near future because the cover art for the 4k is blah, and the art for the steelbook is dreadful. Part 2 had great cover art for the US 4ks and steelbooks. The slipcover art on the part 3 4k you showed should have been the main artwork across the board. Sounds like I'm picky. Because I am. 🤣
@@JB-pl1iu well I guess that makes two of us! 😂 I’m picky as hell too. And I was very underwhelmed with the US release which is why I went with this for the regular slips and the ESC collection for the steelbooks. These steelbooks are unlike any others. I have the steels for part 1 and 2 from them and they are top tier.
The 95 dollar set i think was best value...i didnt like that lego version...looks horrible.vhs is nostaligic,but not practical because 99% of ppl dont have a working vcr or the bad tvs to hook them too.
@@chrisleehaessley yeah. I wish they sold the VHS separate. Would have picked up the cheaper one as well. But I’m a sucker for watching stuff still on my VCR 😂

I unboxed this set on my channel also. I an TOTALLY happy with the purchase! 🙂
@@WorldMoneyWins very nice!! Hopefully your items arrived in better condition than mine did!
The real struggle is waiting for shipping lol
LMAO you are not wrong!!
Fantastic video! Enjoyed your breakdown, and opinions of the release and shipping experience as well.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch!
I had a similar ding on my box as well due to the paper thin box I reached out with pictures and they sent me some money back so good on them for that.
That’s great to hear!! Last time I had this happen, they replaced my vhs tape and sent me a free movie lol 🤷🏻♂️
My boxset was dinged on 2 Corners but only a minor gripe

By the way, checked out your videos, and really cool. Consider me subscribed, and Greetings from Australia👍👍

@@WolvesAtYourDoor exactly! It’s just not something anyone wants to gamble with!
Glasses can be displayed on a Art Mask with a Santa and beard just a idea
@@horrorstateofmind2724 oh dude I love that!! I may just have to do that 😂
Very nice set! For me it's a bit steep for the quality of the movies but lovely nevertheless! Subbed from a fellow collector

@ much appreciated dude!

I would have gotten the cheaper one as well but I wanted that damn VHS 😂
@ChinoCollects wtf! I swear when I placed my order that the description said it had the VHS...fuck.......sigh.....now I'm disappointed and sad....

@ I wish they would have sold the VHS separate, otherwise I would have gone for the cheaper version myself
@@ChinoCollectsmine came in perfect condition the box was perfect too! I got the big collectors edition
@ that’s great!!! Glad it’s not happening to everyone!

@ maybe different regions get different boxes (I’m Irish)
@@froggyfresh08 you’re definitely right. That would make the most sense
Nice video bro
Thanks!! 🙏🏼
Is the quality a lot more crystal clear than the abysmal "4k US" Version. Literal terrible film grain, and also not HDR.

180 why so many pieces. 😂
Too many! I put it together finally and it took may way too long 😂😂

That box is NOT thinner than a pizza box lol.
Next time I’ll do a video with a pizza box next to me just for you
