So I'm confused.... did all 1,000 units sell out already? Or is the listing just up on the site, but not actually active yet?

Edit: I see their Coming Soon page states "These titles are coming soon, so grab a coffee, sit back, and keep refreshing this page!" Phew!

As per my above post, it’s not been made live to order yet.

88 do this with all their products that they list on their website. It’ll go up as out of stock initially then it’ll be made live to order a little closer to release date.

Rigid slipcase…so, an Arrow-style chipboard box? Slipcases aren’t “rigid”. Can’t tell from the pic.

Sky_Captain · 04-20-2024, 10:35 PM

It's only thing getting rigid, at that price.

The film's pretty ****ing boring. And I HATE that scene with the pregnant woman. Still probably gonna buy it though, 'cause I'm a ****ing idiot like that.

Thank you. I don't think my mind was fully functioning that day...

Based on previous experiences, does anyone have an idea of when they might possibly go live? I'd really hate to miss this and Absurd.

I've got this limited edition I purchased several years ago on eBay, but I've never been able to figure out where it actually came from. Searching the UPC just shows others that were for sale at one point.

It'll be a little closer to release date, but I'd imagine by the end of next week. I would think you'll have ample time to get it, I can't see either of them selling out quickly

I'm trying to tell myself that and believe it.... On one hand, this is the 4K debut of one of the most famous of the Video Nasties, in a limited edition package.... On the other hand, Anthropophagus is one of the most boring, un-rewatchable snoozefests out there

Sometimes I'm so confused as to why I like the stuff I do

CompleteCount · 04-21-2024, 03:21 PM

Ah, retro covers. The wife made this for a client a while ago.

I wonder what title will be on the print. THE SAVAGE ISLAND is such a dull title.

WJB · 04-21-2024, 04:15 PM

Blimey. £90 for the pair!

I've made some silly purchases before in pursuit of my hobby, but considering I have the previous BDs of both of these, I just can't justify those prices sadly.

They are the standard releases, the expensive ones are website exclusives (I think).
