OCT - H BOX?

NOV - BL BOX (Bruce Lee)

DEC - SH BOX? (Can't help but think the original plan may have been a Sammo Hung set, rather than individual releases)

2023:
WB BOX
TOTBD BOX (Tombs of the Blind Dead?)
GOH BOX
P COLL
HM UPS
WESTERN BOX (surely the same spaghetti western set listed above)

2021/2022 MIA:

D (Darkness?)
MLN
13F (Thirteenth Floor?)
B Box Set
EJ?

Mexico Trilogy, as in Robert Rodriguez? That'd be a day one for me.

I can see October's "H BOX" being a Hellraiser set Even though most are trash in that series, I'd welcome a complete set like their Halloween and Friday the 13th sets, if they can navigate the licensing hell.

Would be interesting if their UK version of the Empire set has more films. That happened before with the House and Rivette box sets.

I meant the 4k

[Jr7936]

diabolik has all the preorders. For the empire set after shipping it's $69.99 which is a very tempting price.

[RevolverOcelScott]

Yeah, DiabolikDVD is putting up the UK titles next week, so I gotta wait for that to have em all on one order.

I'm going to hold off for a bit---BN usually has that Arrow sale in July and I've been burned on those June/July titles when I jump the gun.

[jcole8882]

So the Empire Boxset is Limited Edition? Meaning it will go out of print? Then others can release some of these on 4k eventually? I'm waiting for 4k... and the extras on these aren't impressive...

It's listed strictly as "LIMITED EDITION", so yes it will eventually go OOP. But just how long are you willing to wait? It could be years before any (or all) ever hit 4K.

Grabbed the Empire box set from Diabolik as soon as the pre-order went live.

I mean if they never make it to 4k.. I still have the scream factory blus of Cellar Dweller, Dolls, and The Dungeonmaster.. and I'll just stick with them

I already own all those as well, but the new restorations and bonus features seem worth it, for me at least. The set was cheaper than I thought it would be, so I pre-ordered one from Diabolik when it went live earlier.

[jzbadblood]

Empire Boxset is way cheaper than I would've expected. Under a $100 for that is a slam dunk easy buy price.

[JupiterMission]

Will Diabolik add The Lighthouse 4k while the $5 discount is still on the Empire box set? I didn't realize they waited to list UK releases.

Lighthouse is already up at Orbit.

And from my experience, Orbit is much faster with their shipping.

Same here. At that price it was a no brainer.
