Pretty forked up for a while, but things seem to be improving.

Looking forward to Terror Express. Been over a year since that one was announced.

I saw the most recent Dark Force live feed and Bill’s legs really scare me. To DeFalco, please send him my wishes to get better but also please tell him to start taking his health way more seriously. I know people with diabetes and drinking sodas is a major no no.

Yeah - it's really non of my business but why Packard still brings him Junk-Food and Soda (at Bills request i guess) boggles my mind. Just try to help him eat better.

He should switch to flavored seltzer water. Most of the good brands have zero sugar and taste pretty great. Wegmans has their own line and I love them. LIDLS also has good ones.

Makes eating a burger much more enjoyable, than a glass of water!

Hey Dark Force, I knew there was no promise of swag every time but you spoiled me with the first shipments containing those cool magnets. I'm glad there will be more swag to come. It does pay to be a subscriber in my opinion. Thanks.

They should think about maybe giving away prizes to subscribers like:

• Autographed 8x10 photos of Dave
• Lunch with General Tom
• Private flexing sessions with Dave

[FoxJam]

I'm sure the lunch would be at a Sbarro.

Dave, saw your Blue Monkeys post on the FB site. Why is it taking the plant forever to figure out how many survived; it should be simple math?

ONLY 32 BLUE MONKEY available for purchase along with very limited inventory on other limited quantity Dark Force and Code Red titles. We are still awaiting word on the remaining BLUE MONKEY inventory that has survived the accident at the replication plant. We will make them available as we receive them. Welcome to BIG MONSTER WEEKEND at Dark Force where small quantity of inventory has survived the carnage. Stay tuned for more details so you don't miss out on the last of some big cult titles!

Anyway, anyone recall what the source was for this release?

The Dark Forces do not operate in simple ways

I am sure Dave hired a slipcover inspection specialist and he is working around the clock to grade the remaining slipcover inventory

Whoa, you may be onto something there Ruined. A CGC graded release never crossed my mind, but with all of the collectors out there DF could be first to market.

Do they do ratings of luminosity and consistency of glow in the dark paint application?

[Frightener22]

"Giant cast featured in this 1975 R-rated thriller...Sam Waterson...Zero Mostel...Joseph Wiseman...Shelly Winters...Donald Pleasence...Vincent Price...Jackie Cooper...and more! This will be a star-studded Dark Force release worthy of the hi-def arena."

Found the answer, re: Blue Monkey:

An INCREDIBLE HD transfer from the ORIGINAL 35MM NEGATIVE!

[cgurley]

I see Blue Monkey is available again. Also some copies available without the slipcover for cheaper.

You should be thanking the drunk forklift operator

Perhaps. But that aside, Dave didn't have to mark these down to this very fair price either and so I prefer to thank the guy that made the decision to offer these at a reasonable price rather than someone that damaged goods.

It's actually more complex than it seems rdodlak. Someone has to sort through hundreds of them and if there is even the slightest bit of damage to the slipcover it has to be discarded. Not only for the hefty price of the Collector's Edition but we would want the customer's to have only perfect ones. The other complication is that the replicator sources out the slipcovers and these custom one's are extremely expensive to run. So it has to be decided if they will re-run a batch to replace damaged ones or just refund us. It is quite a mess but hopefully we will have more answers in the week ahead. To answer your second question the source for the release was the original 35 mm camera negative. That's how we got it so incredible looking. It has been a top seller, it's just a shame what happened to a big portion of the remaining stock.
