It feels like Hammer couldn't organise a brain transplant in a mad scientist's laboratory.

Does anyone know of the big box will be avaliable on Amazon.co.uk or Rarewaves?

God I hope so. I would hate to miss out

Thank you.

How do you know if you got any freebies?

I know the patch displayed as part of the Quatermass orders, but nothing is showing for me with this order. The poster is quite nice, but the 'Now Restored in 4K' text ruins it IMO.

Guess I got nothing... like Charlie

I'm surprised how sad I am that I missed out on the Melvyn Hayes autograph by about 30 seconds! And I think his performance in the movie is very annoying!

RossyG · 08-29-2025, 12:01 PM

If the freebies have gone then they’ve pre sold over 730 sets in an hour.

Other boutiques take note. A FOMO scramble for a fun gimmick giveaway can work wonders.

Yep, those of us that got the quad are getting the signed pic and premiere ticket too.

But no idea why they bother with the countdown. From Kronos on, it's been 15-20mins early, so no-one doing what they're told by Hammer to do has a shot.

Isntitdavid · 08-29-2025, 12:18 PM

Probably been asked before (sorry if so!), do Hammer charge you at time of purchase or at time of dispatch? I've had a heavy month but don't want to miss out!

You could have had all three! The poster was in my basket and went out of stock just as I was hitting the button.

T4ffer · 08-29-2025, 12:42 PM

I wonder if Limelight will have it too. They do have The Man in Black.

If not, I will be relying on Rarewaves' delicate packaging.

When you order with Hammer.

Amazon and HMV charge on dispatch. Given it’s a LE would go for HMV rather than Amazon.

As Noel Coward once nearly said "extraordinary how potent cheap tat is".

All three items were shown in my order basket.

Only 500 copies.

The first 30 got the poster, photo and ticket.
Next 170 got photo and ticket - I’m in this group.
Next 300 got the ticket.

Am amazed they let you triple or double up on the gifts and didn’t give you just the best gift available at the time.

Meant only 500 not 730 got the gifts.

A quad poster on high grade paper and a signed photo from the only remaining main cast member are a bit better than "cheap tat" for something we were ordering anyway...

The repro ticket? Fair enough, cheap copy - but no-one was spending 60 notes on that.

That's what they've done before. I was more after the signed pic than quad, but very happy to have the bundle.

It shows on the order but removes the price:

Ah, yes, of course. As a one-gift-****** I’d forgotten that the logboy elites had got two or even three.

I ordered mine at 11.40 direct of the website and no freebies showed up in my basket.
