Friday the 13th: 8-Movie Collection

[Thomas Veil]

Jason X is one of my favorites so wouldnt skip that...picking up this set and already grabbed the remake, Jason v. Freddy and the JGTH/Jason X German release. With the new 1-8 current price point I got all for $79. So happy. Prefer the cases as opposed to the tin on my shelf anyway.

Are the Jason X/Goes to Hell mediabooks available yet? I can’t seem to find them anywhere.

Bought mine, as the tin set is OOP and the only F13 film I own is the original (Warner release, without a menu - I hate this so much -).
Can't wait to have this on hands

Step 2: ?
Step 3: Profit

My copy came today. No idea why BBY shipped so early. No complaints though. The Slipcover (in hand) is nicer than I was expecting so that was a bonus.

I have the tin but I’m intersested in owning this one too

Yeah I got mine yesterday, still not sure how it came so fast, they may not care about street dates since it's a catalog release though.

Why?

[recS-12]

Back up discs would be my guess. I have the tin as well but for the price of this collection there is real value here. Averages out to $3.xx per movie. I also buy duplicates for future trading. One never knows what release is gonna be under manufactured and highly sought after, raising the value. i.e. the tin set. At least those are the reasons I used to justify purchasing.

I only had 1-3 and the re-make before, then I purged most of my collection and sold those so it was a no-brainer for me.

Yes that’s my belief too. Catalog titles they’re not so worried about maintaining Street date.

Many have reported playback issues over the years with some of the discs in the tin. I bought a set as a backup as well.

[moviebuff75]

So what is the more expensive version on Amazon?

There were some in the other thread but they are gone...

Slipcover, seven disc Amaray case (one slot is empty), plain blue/grey disc art.

Considering the number of people who hate the design of that set, I Honestly expect the prices of that set to settle down to a more realistic number in the next month or so
I am thinking in the 75 to $120 dollar range(and thats only till WB issues individual copies of or a double feature set of JGTH, JasonX.)
I think once JGTH and Jason X get releases the set will plummet even more.

I'll repost the pictures I posted in the other thread here;




It's actually a 6-disc case, there's a disc missing in that picture because my friend who took the photos had it out in his media player at the time.
