Wasn't this announced "ages" ago? The figure looks excellent, but I personally wouldn't buy a thing coming from Krekel. And after Arrow's region free disc with 4K restoration from the original 16mm negative by MoMA it seems utterly pointless.

The Blu-rays and DVDs contained in this set will be re-packs of older releases, so it's ripping of customers again with high prices for a useless, badly made bust and a cheap t-shirt with inferior audio and video presentations for the main product (the movies themselves) at the same time.

Avoid this crap and don't give your hard-earned money to cheap hustlers like Krekel.

No.
Krekel already stated that they will use the 4K transfer but they haven't received the material yet.
Only the MB version coming from Inked Pictures will contain the older discs.

HATE these films with a passion.
The malformed brothers screaming is worse than fingernails on chalkboard imho.
It rivals "The Asphyx" for putting crushed glass in my ears and stirring it with an ice-pick.
YMMV.

Oliver Krekel is doing this?

My interest just plummeted.

4k or whatever. If Krekel gets his fingers on them you can bet on some heavy DNR and contrast/color screw-up happening.

And if he takes care of these releases the same way as he did with the MAD MISSION films, he will sell you an empty bust now, collect you 140 Euros and the discs will follow in 2 to 3 years, if ever.

No again.
His latest discs e.g. Demon Wind, Drive-In Massacre, The Slayer and Men Of War came without DNR and color-altering and were quite solid releases.

But actually I don't know if giving you facts makes any sense...

That's because they weren't made from him. They are from Inked Pictures and he denied his involvement in this disks. The latest disk he made for Inked was "Sweet Sixteen" wich was an "Integral Cut" of the Theatrical and the Directors Cut, so again another "Krekel Special Uncut" Version of a Film.

Saw exerpts from the PCE of MEN OF WAR done by Krekel. Image looks like sh*t. Way too much red and of course filtered (look at this: https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?go=1&...=32991&i=1&l=0). The only advantage this transfer has over e. g. the French release is the larger framing. The framing of the French transfer (which is identical to the US DVD, US Blu-ray disqualifies with totally wrong aspect ratio) looks too tight in some scenes.

Only in the 84 Mediabook. The PCE Edition doesn't have the red tone and the german Dub in the right pitch.

Does anyone have this set for sale? Been searching high and low for it

[The Mole]

I wouldn't bother. The figurine looks wuite awful and cheap.
