This limited edition Jet Li double feature includes two breathtaking martial arts action films directed by Corey Yuen (The Transporter). In The Legend of Fong Sai Yuk Jet Li stars as a carefree young martial arts expert who gets involved with a government official's daughter just as he discovers his family is part of a rebel resistance movement. While his fighting ability and charm made him a local champion, his epic battle for freedom would make him a legendary hero. Acclaimed choreographer Corey Yuen directs Li at his jaw-dropping best, including an unbelievable sequence fought entirely atop the heads of stunned onlookers. In The Legend of Fong Sai Yuk 2 Martial arts sensation Jet Li kicks back into action as the heroic Fong Sai Yuk in this explosive follow-up to the powerfully entertaining original. Having fought to save his father from the wrath of the Chinese government, Fong Sai Yuk joins his father's underground revolutionary organization, the Red Flower Society! But in the camp of rebels, a traitor lurks! Now, at a time when few can be trusted, Fong Sai Yuk must utilise his every skill in the fight to overthrow his nation's brutally powerful empire!

I'll have some of that.

Shame no English dub options available but will definitely order when its out.

[drush9999]

Great news, I have the US Roninflix set, but the PQ ain't great

[cooey]

No Frank Djeng commentaries (another release where apparently he wasn't asked....)

[Jackie Scanlon]

Note the first one will likely be cut for horse falls.

Here are the individual covers for the two films with great artwork from Kung Fu Bob

They are already in the OP under the spoiler tag as to not clog up the OP

Oh, totally missed that spoiler tag, thanks . (I'm using dark mode on here, so probably doesn't help)

[ShawDonkey]

Great cover arts but Jets pose in FSY1 looks bit too similar to Martial Arts of Shaolin.

I'm assuming these are UK only?

Yeah, Ronin Flix still have rights in the US I believe.

Hoping to replace my old Hong Kong Legends/Dragon Dynasty blu of the first (dodgy picture but good subtitles) and the Ronix Flix double feature of both (slightly better picture - crap dubtitles for both pictures!)

If the subtitles are decent, then this is a winner already. These films are great, especially the first.

The subs will be much better than decent.

What is making this limited? I am not seeing any unique LE features. No booklets, poster, etc. Is it just the hard case?
??

[Abel Ferrara]

I asked the QC guy on Facebook if it was uncut and he said yes. Hopefully it is.

& the subtitles are WRONG (dubtitles instead of proper subs) as someone else pointed out.

This -

- Deluxe Edition Includes Rigid Slip Case with new artwork by “Kung Fu” Bob O’Brien
- Individual Digipaks to hold each film with new artwork by “Kung Fu” Bob O’Brien
- O-Ring Slipcase to leave the rigid case clean of logos

Once this has sold out, it'll be replaced with amarays.

Is the uncut and original color grade as well which you will notice at the start of the film with the flashback scenes in FSY 1. They included the audio commentary I did with Chris on FSY 1 (Cut) from the RoninFlix release plus the brand new one I did for part 2 with Peter. PQ and colors look freaking fantastic.
