Thanks to your work on this channel, I’ve got 95% of these releases at the initial retail prices. The only one I paid a little more for was the Labyrinth 4K Book for $50 from Canada 🇨🇦 eBay sale. But it was worth it to me. And although I’ll most likely never sell my collection unless I’m absolutely desperate, it’s awesome to see how my collection has grown in value. Thanks James. 😎👍
Totally awesome video man! Yur content is always totally the best around & no one else even compares to your top notch videos!! I did not know about Starship Troopers 4K steelbook & the labyrinth 4K dolby vision differences, so prices were not too bad for both so I ordered them thru ya links! Some of these other 4ks in this vid I really want bad but I'm gonna have to save up some dough to afford them HA HA!!! I totally appreciate ya man & love this channel!!
☝️I completely understand about having to save up money, I recently had to do that same thing to be able to afford to buy the 👻Ghostbusters Ultimate Collection 4K UHD💿set!! LOL!!🤣😂😜 😘It’s very refreshing to read your comments & I love hearing my videos are highly valued!!👌 😍I like seeing your great comments & continuing support‼️Thanks‼️👍🥰
I was able to snag the Dolby Vision version of Labyrinth on eBay for around $38 this past year. I also have the Best Buy 4K steelbooks of Kong: Skull Island and the Batman 4-Film set (picked those up on release day when they came out). Another Turbine release that is OOP and valuable/hard to find is The Black Phone 4K steelbook, which they released with Dolby Vision (which the US release did not have). They also did a few 4K mediabook versions, which are all scarce.
I've always enjoyed these videos, but this is the first time that I found out that I have some of these valuable discs! I have Starship Troopers, The Final Countdown, and the Columbia Classics Vol. 2. I never buy these as an investment but for enjoyment only. So it's gratifying that I actually have some valuable media. Thanks for these videos!
Brilliant episode - sadly (for my wallet) I have seven of these high value disc sets. I am based in the UK so most of my editions are from UK releases such as Second Sight’s Dawn of the Dead, Arrow’s limited editions of Robin Hood and Robocop. I have all of the Columbia classics - although the first one is a bit of a Frankenstein version - I bought box and book and separate versions of the films - only one I have not been able to get is League of their own. I got the UK version of Ghost busters ultimate set but which dis not have red flashing lights. I also managed to pick up blue undergrounds Final countdown. My purchase of of these editions are directly down to my watching your channel😅😅😅
👍Sweet!! ❓What movie 4K’s💿 from this video are you excited for & hoping to add to your movie collection???❓ 😘Also, I’m glad to hear you enjoyed this unique episode!!👌 😉I have quite a few more OOP 4K’s💿 I could talk about in a future follow up video if this video is supported & performs well!!😜
@@InSearchofPhysicalMedia Probably none of the others unless we get a reprint down the road. 😂 I’m more looking towards the exciting Risky Business 4K announcement + Once Upon a Time in the West & Matinee. 👍🏻
I never understood limited editions or OOP unless there is a loss of rights to distribute something. I'd distribute any movie for as long as the orders were coming in and over time reasonably increase the price. Easy answer is sell the copies and pause to have people put refundable money down for a reprint. When a set number of orders are in, reprint more and sell them. Why are these distributers letting price gougers on Ebay take their business?
As someone who owns about 900 4k movies that's the best comment I've ever read about collecting. It doesn't help anyone and future generations of collectors.
I never understood how films can come out in one country(say the US) but not in another(like the UK where I’m from). Not only do I have to buy Region A blu rays but I have to pay more for them too. 4K’s are fine because they’re multi region but I usually have to pay £15-20 more than I usually would from a store. A prime example is The Abyss which isn’t coming out over here now. It would cost £25 but I had to pay £40. As for out of print films, I recently found out they once released The Phantom of the Opera on 4K in China(if he mentions it in this video I don’t know as I read your comment first and just replied) which I would buy if it wasn’t so rare that it costs about £400 secondhand(at least the one I found was).
I do understand that being limited you raise the demand artificially, in comic books all prints are sort of limited, but you do have reprints and collections releasing from time to time. Hence, if reprints of limited editions that are successful becomes a common thing I think that’s a middle ground for the studios that can squeeze the lemon twice and the consumers that want access.
😘Sweet, welcome to my channel & I love hearing that my videos make you SMILE😃!!👌 ❓Was there any 4K’s💿 from in this video that your excited for & hoping to add to your movie collection???❓
I have The Final Countdown. I bought it as soon as it came out. I really like that movie. I am looking to get Starship Troopers. I have the other 4k but want the Sony version.
I don't know how rare it is, but the movie I've paid the most for was Sword and the Sorcerer for about 70 dollars. Other movies that I haven't bought because they are too expensive: - Bloodsport - Razorback
I appreciate the time and effort you’ve put into your videos. Love this one in particular. I bought my wife the twilight 4K box set for Christmas 2023 for $120.
Great to get these insights into the secondary physical media market. It's crazy what some of these releases end up going for and it's a shame that that many of these great releases are not always accessible to movie fans. Fortunately I have a few of the items you showcased here including that Columbia Classics volume 1 set which I am now very glad I bought at the time. I also have that Dawn of the Dead set, The Final countdown as well as several others in this vid. However there are some I'd really love to get like that Ghostbusters set but just way to expensive for the moment. Hopefully I can one day pick these more expensive items up for my collection.
Amazon has, and it's printed on the cover I believe, a Limited Edition Reprint of Starship Troopers 4k steelbook. This wouldn't fall into the $100 value would it?
That is a great video, I do have the Dawn of the Dead and Columbia Classics Vol2. Also Robocop and Prince of Thieves. Vol 1 is my holy grail and that starship troopers steelbook looks amazing!
☝️I completely understand & get the feeling, it grinds on you & bugs you until you just spend the money & but it at a high price LOL!!!🤣😂 I just bought a 4K💿 set that I’ve regretted not buying originally for a long time & I spent wayyyy too much to acquire it too!!😬😬 ❓Was there any other OOP Movie 4K’s💿 from this video you are excited for & hoping to add to your collection??❓
Missed out on starship as I didn't like the artwork, plus have the slip so I honestly didn't think about it. Tho I do have The Final countdown, Robocop, D.O.T.D ( 2nd sight ) & R.H.P.O.T Steelbook set from Zavvi arrow exclusive ( which must be worth about £150 now. Great video 👏👏👏
I just managed to order Starship troopers for £70 new unopened from a reputable seller on eBay, couldn’t get it anywhere else in the UK. Hopefully I will have it in the next 3-4 days. Thanks for putting this together, very useful.
I own Starship Troopers, Robocop, Twilight series, Ghostbusters set and the Batman set. Needless to say the Ghostbusters set is the crown jewel of my collection. But as for some of the others, I can’t believe I passed on so many that just sat at Best Buy for the longest time.
It's not crazy in price yet, but the rarest ones I have are the Maze Runner movies (all 3) in Steelbook. You can't even find them in 4k let alone the steelbook.
Thank you for another great video. I had the opportunity to get several of these you showed but just have to limit my spending! However I got the one I am most passionate about and that is Starship Troopers! I never complain as I feel so lucky to be living a good life. I do love to see what others have collected, how they are displayed and their thoughts on the quality of what they have. Look forward to the next viewing 😊
🥰Thanks so much for your SUPER THANKS & I’m glad you enjoyed this video I created‼️👍😘❓Was there any movie 4K’s💿 from this video your excited for & hoping to add to your collection???❓
I have Ran, KSI, the Spider-Man’s, and Ghost in the Shell. I ordered the Batman steel and Final Countdown (which I loved as a kid and tried to get when it released). Thanks for putting this together. I’d be curious if some of the other Best Buy exclusives become valuable.
Adding the Spider-Man sets, the Batman set and Robin Hood to the collection. Already had RAD which I love! Actually just saw RAD in the theater, which I had never done before.
@@kevinkoch6900It’s almost as if they heard you. But the announcement came out 10 days before this video. Still, it’s a valid point that Winter People has not existed in any form of HD before this release in June. And that seems unusual since Kurt Russell stars in it and he’s had a career resurgence in recent years that would cause one to assume his back catalog of films (even the ones that weren’t hits at the box office like Winter People) would have gotten HD releases at least on streaming. But thankfully, it has made its hi-def debut finally.
I have all the Columbia Classics boxes - Sony do an amazing job on every movie, absolutely gorgeous transfers. I pre-ordered them all so only paid an average of around $250AU each, which was about average to import to Aus. Very shocked to see how much vol 1&2 are worth now. I knew Vol.1 was sought after but holy crap! Also have the Robin Hood PoT box from Arrow - I was disappointed with the transfer, unbelievably grainy and almost unwatchable for me Also the Robobcop L.E. and the Starship Troopers 25th Ann. L.E Steelbook, paid about average retail for them. Was spewing about Rad - by the time I'd heard about it, it was already sold out
I payed 90 bucks for the Dawn of the Dead 4K collectors edition. Even had to appear in person to my local cusoms to pick it up. Felt stupid then, feel smart now. ;)
I at least have a few of those: The Batman 4K Steelbook set, the Ghostbuster set, The IP Collection, and the Spider-Man set. If you got a second, mind if I ask about your Spider-Man set, did it have any audio errors?
I’ve never understood the Ltd runs. The amount of time and money it costs to do a 4K restoration then only do 10K copies of it? Whats the point. If they did 50K they would sell and they’re make 5X more. It’s mind boggling. I have the Dawn on the dead one but it seems a cash grab at the start, but if they didn’t limit it they would make far more. Don’t these companies want to make as much money as possible? 🤦🏻♂️
I’m lucky I bought the twilight series on release day. I wish I had bought a few extras to flip. Lol I just bought starship troopers remaster in February for retail. I’m Glad I snatched that one up.
No way, I actually picked up the Ran Steelbook at a local shop for $20 a couple weeks ago. Just saw it was a Kurosawa film so I jumped. Always nice to realize ya found a bargain!
I’ve got a bunch Columbia classics 1 and 2 The killers River runs through it Robocop I have a arrow steel book boxset of Robin Hood which is a little different but equally rare I think Ip Man box set Ran steel book
I have a handful of these, namely the full-on FINAL COUNTDOWN. I missed out on RAN because I couldn't afford it. I missed out on STARSHIP TROOPERS because 1) I don't like the movie and 2) the artwork was ugly. I missed out on LABYRINTH because I didn't know about it.
This set is SOLD OUT and OUT OF PRINT. Sony only did a limited run and the vultures on ebay are price gouging up and over $185+ US, the Blue Rays are the way to go. Guess I'm gonna pass on this set. I might pick up the Blue Ray's, then again I might not.
Sorry, the day I spend $150 on a 4K UltraHD Blu Ray set is the day I shoot myself! Love your enthusiasm and superb comment, but I will pass on all of these!!!
I like your channel, you spend a lot of time to provide good info, this was a very interesting one....I do have a sealed dvd of Gravity- the diamond luxe edition. You did not mention it, but it is out of print since 2015 sold for 69.99 then and thought it should be included. Did you overlook it?
I bought that Robin Hood arrow 4K for the wife january last year and just looked on ebay here in Australia and there is a seller selling multiple copy's for $53.95
i'm shocked about the Twilight Saga set - i got that one from Best Buy for $64 with discounts. I also have the Columbia Classics Vol 2, I'm glad I picked that one up for $99 a while back..
WOW! Really surprised how many of these I have already. I jumped on the Sony collections early, i wanted Lawrence of Arabia and ordered early, and continued pre-ordering all of them as they have been announced (I've got all 4).
I have: - Ran 4K BB Steelbook - Labyrinth 4K 35th - Starship Troopers Steelbook - Arrow Robocop Limited - Ip Man 4K collection set - Twilight Steelbook Set
After comparing the prices you stated to online prices, I'm assuming it's for NEW ones. Its hard to find them used. I have a copy of Twilight Time's release of Where the Sidewalk Ends, new, still wrapped. Prices range $100+. I bought it new for $30 and want to watch it, but by doing so, it would lose it's value. I guess I could sell it and buy a used copy at half the price and pocket the rest.
Also, Sony has been known to reprint some 4K steel books too. They’ve done it with Lawrence of Arabia and Fright Night. Moral of the story is have patience if you miss out. Sometimes they get a reprint, because the manufacturer or studio know they’ll sell due to demand. As far as the Arrow Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves release goes, that was a UK release only. I foresee it getting a U.S. release. It may not be Arrow that does it, but at least we’ll get the 4K eventually. Now, I doubt the Sony Ghostbusters ghost trap set comes back, but you never know with the home video release of the new movie. We may get another ghost trap boxed set, because Sony knows there is huge demand.
Managed to get Starship Troopers for £35 when it was reissued last September. I also managed to get the steelbook reissue of Lawrence Of Arabia for £40 around the same time. That was supposed to get a reissue in the UK a couple of months ago and then got cancelled. I also have the Robocop set and The Final Countdown first issue.
Sony had better eventually release the OG Ghostbusters with the Dolby Vision transfer on its own. That’s too big of a movie to not make that version available again!
Man I got about half of those and didn’t really think some went up so much I didn’t even realize how lucky I was to get that ghost in the shell steelbook and thankful I was able to get the ghostbusters trap, though I thought the recently released 4k steelbook with ghostbusters 1&2 was the same disk
I'm a big fan of 4K + 3D combos, and at this point a lot of those are OOP and rare. I'm pretty close to collecting them all but a few are just ridiculous (Dragons 1 and 2 both cost an arm and a leg from france)
I have the Lybrnith 35th anniversary 4k. I have the Mr. Smith Gose to Washington and Dr. Strangelove from the Columbia Classics Volume 1. And I have Anatomy of a Murder and Stripes from Volume 2.
I am very fortunate and lucky enough to own the Kong 4k steel and Ran 4k steels. I also own Lawrence of Arabia 4k BB steel ($110), Sleepy Hollow BB steel ($100+), The Exorcist BB steel ($60+), Goodfellas 4k slipcover (50+), Jumanji 4k steel ($60+) and Wicker Man 4k steel ($70)
I was able to get Ghandi, Lawrence of Arabia, Jerry McGuire on 4K elsewhere and I’ll have to just stick with my Blu-Ray of A League of Their Own because I just can’t justify the price now. And I wasn’t interested in the other two movies in that collection.
Kind of boggles the mind they would only print 10K copies or so. Sure it's limited, but at roughly 35 bucks a pop and some cost with the design and casework manufacturing, that's not much profit. They should print 50K copies, it would help to flatten out these ridiculous scalpers and they would make more money eventually themselves.

Wow I bought all the Columbia Classics box sets when they came out for around $100. Didn't realize some of them would become so rare and sought after.
Like, why the hell would so many of these go OOP in the first place? STARSHIP TROOPERS?! Why would that go OOP people love that movie!

I'd distribute any movie for as long as the orders were coming in and over time reasonably increase the price. Easy answer is sell the copies and pause to have people put refundable money down for a reprint. When a set number of orders are in, reprint more and sell them. Why are these distributers letting price gougers on Ebay take their business?
As someone who owns about 900 4k movies that's the best comment I've ever read about collecting. It doesn't help anyone and future generations of collectors.
I never understood how films can come out in one country(say the US) but not in another(like the UK where I’m from). Not only do I have to buy Region A blu rays but I have to pay more for them too. 4K’s are fine because they’re multi region but I usually have to pay £15-20 more than I usually would from a store. A prime example is The Abyss which isn’t coming out over here now. It would cost £25 but I had to pay £40. As for out of print films, I recently found out they once released The Phantom of the Opera on 4K in China(if he mentions it in this video I don’t know as I read your comment first and just replied) which I would buy if it wasn’t so rare that it costs about £400 secondhand(at least the one I found was).
I do understand that being limited you raise the demand artificially, in comic books all prints are sort of limited, but you do have reprints and collections releasing from time to time. Hence, if reprints of limited editions that are successful becomes a common thing I think that’s a middle ground for the studios that can squeeze the lemon twice and the consumers that want access.
In Search of Physical Media, Subscribed because your videos always make me smile!
😘Sweet, welcome to my channel & I love hearing that my videos make you SMILE😃!!👌
❓Was there any 4K’s💿 from in this video that your excited for & hoping to add to your movie collection???❓
I have The Final Countdown. I bought it as soon as it came out. I really like that movie. I am looking to get Starship Troopers. I have the other 4k but want the Sony version.
Yay! So glad I have the Lybrnith 4k 35th anniversary edition. I bought it at Best Buy for $19.99. Didn't even realize it was limited.
I don't know how rare it is, but the movie I've paid the most for was Sword and the Sorcerer for about 70 dollars. Other movies that I haven't bought because they are too expensive:
- Bloodsport
- Razorback
I appreciate the time and effort you’ve put into your videos. Love this one in particular. I bought my wife the twilight 4K box set for Christmas 2023 for $120.
I got my twilight box set for 80$ 😅😅😅😅 I’m never going to sell
Nice! I would just say maybe reconsider, because Lionsgate are notorious for rereleasing sets or doing single titles later
Great to get these insights into the secondary physical media market. It's crazy what some of these releases end up going for and it's a shame that that many of these great releases are not always accessible to movie fans. Fortunately I have a few of the items you showcased here including that Columbia Classics volume 1 set which I am now very glad I bought at the time. I also have that Dawn of the Dead set, The Final countdown as well as several others in this vid. However there are some I'd really love to get like that Ghostbusters set but just way to expensive for the moment. Hopefully I can one day pick these more expensive items up for my collection.
These things can get crazy. I just sold my Alien 4k slipcover on Ebay for $60!
Great video and even better channel keep up the awesomeness
I had no idea Columbia Classics Vol 1 would be worth so much had opportunity to buy it at $150 and passed because I thought it was too expensive lol
It is 150& now!! On amazon
As of 10/21/24
Amazon has, and it's printed on the cover I believe, a Limited Edition Reprint of Starship Troopers 4k steelbook. This wouldn't fall into the $100 value would it?
Good channel good too see old titles being upgraded
Great job as always, James! A very fun video!
Cool video- thanks James. Never seen someone do this
That is a great video, I do have the Dawn of the Dead and Columbia Classics Vol2. Also Robocop and Prince of Thieves.
Vol 1 is my holy grail and that starship troopers steelbook looks amazing!
That Rad 4k is the only Vinegar Syndrome title I missed out on. Really bugs me I missed it.
☝️I completely understand & get the feeling, it grinds on you & bugs you until you just spend the money & but it at a high price LOL!!!🤣😂
I just bought a 4K💿 set that I’ve regretted not buying originally for a long time & I spent wayyyy too much to acquire it too!!😬😬
❓Was there any other OOP Movie 4K’s💿 from this video you are excited for & hoping to add to your collection??❓
Vinegar Syndrome is having a sale this weekend. I nabbed an OOP copy of Rad 4K from them for $50 a couple of hours ago.
Missed out on starship as I didn't like the artwork, plus have the slip so I honestly didn't think about it. Tho I do have The Final countdown, Robocop, D.O.T.D ( 2nd sight ) & R.H.P.O.T Steelbook set from Zavvi arrow exclusive ( which must be worth about £150 now. Great video 👏👏👏
I just managed to order Starship troopers for £70 new unopened from a reputable seller on eBay, couldn’t get it anywhere else in the UK. Hopefully I will have it in the next 3-4 days. Thanks for putting this together, very useful.
I own Starship Troopers, Robocop, Twilight series, Ghostbusters set and the Batman set. Needless to say the Ghostbusters set is the crown jewel of my collection. But as for some of the others, I can’t believe I passed on so many that just sat at Best Buy for the longest time.
It's not crazy in price yet, but the rarest ones I have are the Maze Runner movies (all 3) in Steelbook. You can't even find them in 4k let alone the steelbook.
Thanks
Thank you for another great video. I had the opportunity to get several of these you showed but just have to limit my spending! However I got the one I am most passionate about and that is Starship Troopers! I never complain as I feel so lucky to be living a good life. I do love to see what others have collected, how they are displayed and their thoughts on the quality of what they have. Look forward to the next viewing 😊
🥰Thanks so much for your SUPER THANKS & I’m glad you enjoyed this video I created‼️👍😘❓Was there any movie 4K’s💿 from this video your excited for & hoping to add to your collection???❓
I have Ran, KSI, the Spider-Man’s, and Ghost in the Shell. I ordered the Batman steel and Final Countdown (which I loved as a kid and tried to get when it released). Thanks for putting this together. I’d be curious if some of the other Best Buy exclusives become valuable.
Is there any talk of a limited addition complete set of twilight?
Was lucky to get a Crying Freeman 4k from Germany Amazon. To think I almost hesitated
You can buy the first film in Germany for €25-30 (mediabook)
Adding the Spider-Man sets, the Batman set and Robin Hood to the collection. Already had RAD which I love! Actually just saw RAD in the theater, which I had never done before.
9 to 5 from Twilight Time is going for over $100 as well. I don't understand why someone can't release this.
I imported the Final Countdown set to the UK ..I had no idea it was so valuable...it's a great movie..
Damn, I'm a rich man! Got a few of these. Should have kept that extra Volume 1 of the Columbia Classics Collection....
Can you do a video on the rarest oop slipcovers?
The Rarest DVD that never made it to Even Blu Ray is "Winter People" with Kurt Russell. Priceless.
Winter People came out on Blu-Ray from Sandpiper Pictures a couple of months ago.
@@tenzingnorgay93 After my comment. I love it.
@@kevinkoch6900It’s almost as if they heard you. But the announcement came out 10 days before this video. Still, it’s a valid point that Winter People has not existed in any form of HD before this release in June. And that seems unusual since Kurt Russell stars in it and he’s had a career resurgence in recent years that would cause one to assume his back catalog of films (even the ones that weren’t hits at the box office like Winter People) would have gotten HD releases at least on streaming. But thankfully, it has made its hi-def debut finally.
I have all the Columbia Classics boxes - Sony do an amazing job on every movie, absolutely gorgeous transfers. I pre-ordered them all so only paid an average of around $250AU each, which was about average to import to Aus. Very shocked to see how much vol 1&2 are worth now. I knew Vol.1 was sought after but holy crap!
Also have the Robin Hood PoT box from Arrow - I was disappointed with the transfer, unbelievably grainy and almost unwatchable for me
Also the Robobcop L.E. and the Starship Troopers 25th Ann. L.E Steelbook, paid about average retail for them.
Was spewing about Rad - by the time I'd heard about it, it was already sold out
I payed 90 bucks for the Dawn of the Dead 4K collectors edition. Even had to appear in person to my local cusoms to pick it up. Felt stupid then, feel smart now. ;)
I at least have a few of those: The Batman 4K Steelbook set, the Ghostbuster set, The IP Collection, and the Spider-Man set. If you got a second, mind if I ask about your Spider-Man set, did it have any audio errors?
Glad I picked up star ship troopers at the time.
I didn’t realize until weeks after getting my Starship Troopers steelbook that I could feel a dent under the J card 😒
I’ve never understood the Ltd runs. The amount of time and money it costs to do a 4K restoration then only do 10K copies of it? Whats the point. If they did 50K they would sell and they’re make 5X more. It’s mind boggling. I have the Dawn on the dead one but it seems a cash grab at the start, but if they didn’t limit it they would make far more. Don’t these companies want to make as much money as possible? 🤦🏻♂️
picked up the starship troopers sb when it dropped, so glad i did
I'm excited that Sony have released the Amicus musical Ring a ding rhythm on blu ray.
I’m lucky I bought the twilight series on release day. I wish I had bought a few extras to flip. Lol
I just bought starship troopers remaster in February for retail. I’m
Glad I snatched that one up.
I got about half of the movies you got on this video
What if I told you I had one of The Final Countdown 4ks in my hand yesterday at FYE for 60 but didn't grab it I'm going back to pick it up
No way, I actually picked up the Ran Steelbook at a local shop for $20 a couple weeks ago. Just saw it was a Kurosawa film so I jumped. Always nice to realize ya found a bargain!
I’ve got a bunch
Columbia classics 1 and 2
The killers
River runs through it
Robocop
I have a arrow steel book boxset of Robin Hood which is a little different but equally rare I think
Ip Man box set
Ran steel book
I am lucky I got the Ran Steelbook, and Arrow Robocop wanted Starship Troopers, but I procrastinated on getting it. I didn't realize that was OOP
I have a handful of these, namely the full-on FINAL COUNTDOWN.
I missed out on RAN because I couldn't afford it.
I missed out on STARSHIP TROOPERS because 1) I don't like the movie and 2) the artwork was ugly.
I missed out on LABYRINTH because I didn't know about it.
This set is SOLD OUT and OUT OF PRINT. Sony only did a limited run and the vultures on ebay are price gouging up and over $185+ US, the Blue Rays are the way to go.
Guess I'm gonna pass on this set. I might pick up the Blue Ray's, then again I might not.
Vinegar syndrome has a lot of different films on 4k at their website.
I like to hear the movies that prices have increased
Just like the streaming subs
Sorry, the day I spend $150 on a 4K UltraHD Blu Ray set is the day I shoot myself!
Love your enthusiasm and superb comment, but I will pass on all of these!!!
Final Countdown is well worth it.
I have the 1963 Amicus musical called Just for fun on dvd by Sony.
I love Amicus films. Why isn't Danger route 1967 available on blu ray.
i have the Columbia classics one i also have the ghost busters set
I got the Starship steelbook a year or 2 back I think on a release
I actually completely forgot i got rad with the lenticular from vinegar syndrome. Had to check the shelf to make sure lol
I got the Starship Troopers 25th Steelbook, still in wrapper for £24 ;)
I like your channel, you spend a lot of time to provide good info, this was a very interesting one....I do have a sealed dvd of Gravity- the diamond luxe edition. You did not mention it, but it is out of print since 2015 sold for 69.99 then and thought it should be included. Did you overlook it?
I did pretty good. I have The Final Countdown, Ghostbusters, and Columbia Classics vol. 1 and 2
I bought that Robin Hood arrow 4K for the wife january last year and just looked on ebay here in Australia and there is a seller selling multiple copy's for $53.95
I have the killers. Too bad I opened it
i'm shocked about the Twilight Saga set - i got that one from Best Buy for $64 with discounts. I also have the Columbia Classics Vol 2, I'm glad I picked that one up for $99 a while back..
wow the Starship Troopers Steelbook i have this 😮😮😮 & Robin Hood, Robocop
WOW! Really surprised how many of these I have already. I jumped on the Sony collections early, i wanted Lawrence of Arabia and ordered early, and continued pre-ordering all of them as they have been announced (I've got all 4).
Watch out for fakes
I have:
- Ran 4K BB Steelbook
- Labyrinth 4K 35th
- Starship Troopers Steelbook
- Arrow Robocop Limited
- Ip Man 4K collection set
- Twilight Steelbook Set
After comparing the prices you stated to online prices, I'm assuming it's for NEW ones. Its hard to find them used. I have a copy of Twilight Time's release of Where the Sidewalk Ends, new, still wrapped. Prices range $100+. I bought it new for $30 and want to watch it, but by doing so, it would lose it's value. I guess I could sell it and buy a used copy at half the price and pocket the rest.
The release of 'Helldivers 2' is the reason the 'Starship Troopers' Steelbook 4K. It's very similar to the film!
Also, Sony has been known to reprint some 4K steel books too. They’ve done it with Lawrence of Arabia and Fright Night. Moral of the story is have patience if you miss out. Sometimes they get a reprint, because the manufacturer or studio know they’ll sell due to demand. As far as the Arrow Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves release goes, that was a UK release only. I foresee it getting a U.S. release. It may not be Arrow that does it, but at least we’ll get the 4K eventually. Now, I doubt the Sony Ghostbusters ghost trap set comes back, but you never know with the home video release of the new movie. We may get another ghost trap boxed set, because Sony knows there is huge demand.
I thought there was a rerelease of the ghostbuster 1&2 steelbook with the new transfer
😂whaaat!! Twilight.....that totally surprising😮
Managed to get Starship Troopers for £35 when it was reissued last September. I also managed to get the steelbook reissue of Lawrence Of Arabia for £40 around the same time. That was supposed to get a reissue in the UK a couple of months ago and then got cancelled. I also have the Robocop set and The Final Countdown first issue.
Sony had better eventually release the OG Ghostbusters with the Dolby Vision transfer on its own. That’s too big of a movie to not make that version available again!
OMG how come Ford v Ferrari (Le Mans 66) Best Buy Exc 4k Steelbook is not on this list lol..!!
Man I got about half of those and didn’t really think some went up so much I didn’t even realize how lucky I was to get that ghost in the shell steelbook and thankful I was able to get the ghostbusters trap, though I thought the recently released 4k steelbook with ghostbusters 1&2 was the same disk
I'm a big fan of 4K + 3D combos, and at this point a lot of those are OOP and rare. I'm pretty close to collecting them all but a few are just ridiculous (Dragons 1 and 2 both cost an arm and a leg from france)
I have the Lybrnith 35th anniversary 4k. I have the Mr. Smith Gose to Washington and Dr. Strangelove from the Columbia Classics Volume 1. And I have Anatomy of a Murder and Stripes from Volume 2.
Super Mario Bros. Trust The Fungus edition is running around $600.
Yep takes the piss how scalpers are allowed to do this
I am very fortunate and lucky enough to own the Kong 4k steel and Ran 4k steels. I also own Lawrence of Arabia 4k BB steel ($110), Sleepy Hollow BB steel ($100+), The Exorcist BB steel ($60+), Goodfellas 4k slipcover (50+), Jumanji 4k steel ($60+) and Wicker Man 4k steel ($70)
I wish Suspiria 2018 got a US 4K release. There was a German 4K but it goes for $400 :/
This is like a running list of all the movies I passed up lmfao
I was able to get Ghandi, Lawrence of Arabia, Jerry McGuire on 4K elsewhere and I’ll have to just stick with my Blu-Ray of A League of Their Own because I just can’t justify the price now. And I wasn’t interested in the other two movies in that collection.
Out of these specific sets/steelbooks, I have Ran and Starship Troopers. The one I wish I had is the Airheads Blu Ray.
I’ve got the limited numbered (mines 574/1000) Spider-Man legacy set but the other one that’s all in white with the embossed Spider-Man on the front
Kind of boggles the mind they would only print 10K copies or so. Sure it's limited, but at roughly 35 bucks a pop and some cost with the design and casework manufacturing, that's not much profit. They should print 50K copies, it would help to flatten out these ridiculous scalpers and they would make more money eventually themselves.
I bought Starship Troopers steelbook 2 months ago for 22$ + 20$ Delivery to Poland. Glad I did bought it though
