Dont think so, at least I havent heard them mentioning this title.
No worries thanks for taking the time to let me know, was holding out as slightly underwhelmed by the uk version and FA are just releasing stunning Steelbooks every time, looking forward to 2016 got a feeling next year will be amazing for fans of FA

Yeah, I bet 2016 will bring us even more awesome releases. Cant believe how many we already got in 2015.
 
I love Schwarzenegger movies, but I would love to see more of action classics from 80s/90s (Stallone, Van Damme, Kurt Russell, Bruce Willis)
Big Trouble in Little China, Cobra, Tango & Cash, Kickboxer, Bloodsport, Die Hard

Hello Guys, we feel the need to bring you updates to Delivery Dates of upcoming FAC editions as soon as possible:

JURASSIC WORLD - postponed from 16/11 to 11/12 - during today's FullSlip inspection we found that varnish is defective on all the pieces, and the whole batch must go back into production. In current operation is the delivery of a new batch estimated at 3 weeks.

BIRDMAN - postponed from 18/11 to 8/1/2016 - because of recurrent inaccuracies on Slipcovers and current interruption of partial varnishing machine we are moving issue and dispatch after the New Year.

LOOPER - postponed from 9/12 to 15/1/2016 - looking for the closest date of production for Blu-ray discs. After approving checkdisk seems the production in the pre-Christmas period actually highly unlikely.

JOHN WICK postponed from 30/11 to 11/12 - editions that are not in the Collector's box will be shipped this year. Our box has repeated problems with the accuracy of cut parts. After yesterday's consultation with a specialist, we will have to switch from cutting each part on a special casting kit which is needed to be sized tuned and thereafter produced. We set up rather longer time reserve. Boxes might be shipped out after the end of February 2016.

T5 postponed from 25/11 to 18/12 - separate editions should be the last FAC editions the we are be able to send this year, if the printer will not get broken again in a short sequence. We would not change the Manufacturer at this time, because the risk is about the same everywhere and this technology in the Czech Republic, unfortunately nobody else has.

For upcoming editions, we plan to change the sequence of events compared to the previous model applied this year. In the beginning we present you the edition, then we start to manufacture its components and at a time when all the parts are made or confirmed delivery date of last part we are going to plan the start of pre-orders. The current year we need to finish in the existing way.
Maniacs Collector's Boxes: After today's consultation with fans and collectors we still stand by the wish to offer you something special, durable and massive with an attractive finish that will always stand behind the purchase. We will show you soon the visualization of the box from inside and outside to provide you with a fair idea of what you have been waiting for really such a long time.
We apologize and thank you for your understanding.
HC for FA Team

As sad as this I respect them for being honest and upfront and Caring about the quality of the product. I'm sure they will be worth the wait :)
 
Ordered and paid The Die Hard Nakatomi Plaza Edition long time ago. Item is in stock since 13.11.2015 (after changing the release date i guess 3 times).
But they don´t ship it. Since 6 days i´ll be waiting for a shipping confirmartion. Nothing.

My mails are answered automated with text which is posted here about the delays of the editions. For me this is no reliable company.

In taking money within minutes they are the best, but that was it.
 
Anyone know what you get for the VIP package?

Just paid for Mission Impossible and was asked if I wanted a VIP package, so opted for bronze
