Added Return of the Jedi Special Edition with OBI. Laserdisc Japanese Release CLV.

Added Making of Star Wars/ SPFX:Making of Empire Strikes Back. First issue Japanese release analog audio only triangle OBI.

Worked out a deal to get both for 59 dollars after tax, free shipping. Not a great deal since they are valued at 25 each but a fair one. Especially considering the seller is in US and so i don’t have to pay 50 dollars for shipping from Japan.

Edit: Added Jason and the Argonauts ViaVision Blu-Ray import. And Supergirl Warner archive Blu-Ray

Added The Guns of Navarone (1961) 4K Ultra HD

Added Urusei Yatsura TV series Blu-Ray set 2 of 4. Discotek. No Bonus material no dub, just English Subtitles.

Added Temple of Doom and Last Crusade Hong Kong Laserdiscs. Pan and Scan Cic Video. Hard Cantonese subs. Ex Rental, rare discs i hope they arrive not broken. 45 a piece is absurd. But the seller wouldn’t make a deal.

Added digital John Wick 4, The Flash, Transformers Rise of the Beasts, Fast X, Dungeons and Dragons Chris Pine version, Guardians of the galaxy 3.

Added Blu-Rays from Cohen Media of Robin Hood/Black Pirate, and Thief of Bagdad.

I’m saving up to be able to purchase Picard season 3, The Korean Laserdisc of Temple of Doom, And Antman Quantumania.

The Star Wars Purist said:

Mysterious Chinese bootleg DVDs of the SW Original Trilogy that predate any of the official releases ('98/'99, it can’t decide, but it’s one of the two), and includes the 1997 cuts with English audio (albeit with burnt in Chinese subs)

are these the pan and scan ones? Because i had those and the source is the Hong Kong Laserdisc with hardcoded Cantonese subs.

I have the Laserdisc for ROTJ. Its warped though. And scratched.

Added The Long Goodbye (1973) Kino Blu-Ray, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969) 2000 DVD and Scrooge (1935) VHS.

Added the Black Swan which is an out of print FOX Blu-ray with Tyrone Power. I bought the Canadian pressing which worked in a region A player because even if i thought 46 bucks was a lot for it used, the US pressing is going for a hundred and fifty dollars.

Added Bubblegum Crash OVA episode 1. Illegal Army. Japanese laserdisc. Very good cover, mint disc no OBI or insert. CLV and digital sound. I got it for 11 bucks. I wanted to see if the picture was any better than the AnimEigo release. Since only Bubblegum Crisis was remastered in HD, and the US DVD and Laserdisc of Crash has always left a lot to be desired.

Added three Fox classics to my collection: How Green Was My Valley (1941) VHS, Titanic (1953) VHS and Gentleman’s Agreement (1947) Blu-Ray

Added Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Digital + making of bonus.

Added Star Trek Picard seasons 1-3 blu-ray set standard edition. I only wanted 3 but the regular set and steelbook are sold out and on backorder. I wanted release day delivery.

Added Korean Temple of Doom Laserdisc. This is ultra rare and was very expensive. But i had to have it since i recently purchased the Hong Kong Laserdiscs for Temple and Last Crusade. It is Pan and Scan CLV but mint not even smidge of visible rot no damage to the cover, burned in subs i think. It will take like a month to get here i hope it doesn’t arrive broken or gets lost in the mail.

The Thing (1982) 2006 HD-DVD
Despicable Me (2010) 2017 4K Ultra HD

Added The Flash Icon Edition Blu-Ray/4K/digital code combo.

Worst packaging ever. They way it holds the discs in a sleeve on each side leads to scratches. I carefully took the discs out, and i’m not storing them in that case.

Added Lawrence of Arabia (1962) Best Buy Exclusive 4K Ultra HD Steelbook for $40.

Added Lowry Indiana Jones Full Screen DVD. It is only the trilogy and a bonus disc.

I know i have the widescreen somewhere but i haven’t been able to find it. I just don’t feel like digging out 3 different closets of boxes to find it.

I also have added Forbidden Planet. A somewhat weird less common earlier release in Letterbox from Japan on Laserdisc. In CAV format. I don’t even know if it has digital audio or not.

Added The Phantom of the Opera (1925) Remastered Laserdisc.

Added Japanese Definitive Collection with making of trilogy laserdisc set. This is the most expensive Star Wars set i’ve ever purchased. At a whopping 200 dollars US. Real value is closer to 160 or so and i had to pay for shipping and tax so it came to 225. It is a set i’ve wanted for close to twenty years. Had a milestone Birthday and so that was the gift i bought myself with the money my father sent me, which was a surprise since the last 3 years before that he gave me nothing.

Added 2001: A Space Odyssey UHD and Batman (1989) Digibook Blu-Ray to my collection.

Added Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning part 1 digital.

Added Neon Genesis Evangelion rebuild 3.0+1.11 Thrice Upon A Time Gkids Blu-ray

I also added the last of the SAO sets because Righstuf is dead and closed.

Added Maoyu Archenemy and Hero Sentai blu ray. English Subs only no Dub. Its enjoyable but it never really develops, the mild fanservice and harem element is standard and overdone. Its like a not as good Spice and Wolf. With politics and economics. The backgrounds and animation are quite good for a show that came out a decade ago.

Added Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) Warner Archive Blu-Ray, Forbidden Planet (1956) Widescreen VHS, Metropolis (1927) Masters of Cinema Blu-Ray, Coraline (2009) 4K Ultra HD, Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro (1979) 4K Ultra HD, Oppenheimer (2023) 4K Ultra HD Steelbook, The Ghost Breakers (1940) Laserdisc, The Thing (1982) Japanese Laserdisc, Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) 4K Ultra HD and Cleopatra (1963) Blu-Ray to my collection.

Added Discotek Urusei Yatsura collection 3. It cost me 25 more thanks to the death of Rightstuf. Had to get it from Anime Corner store.

Added Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1 Steelbook 4k.

Added Star Trek IV: The Voyage home sealed with OBI evergreen Japanese Laserdisc. Gatefold.

Edit: my copy of Star Trek IV arrived and its a beauty looks brand new. Just opened it can’t wait to watch it.
