Such a shame that after 4yrs we get the same **** matt flat steelbook this could of been lovely with a bit of embossing /debossing on WEA say the feather floating on the back etc.
Already own the steel and I put in the 4K disc so find it very hard to splash out nearly £50 for a slip and collector cards this time.

This is why it must be incredibly hard being an FAC enthusiast/collectible holder now, IMO anyway. They expect you to lap up the sh!t releases like this in order to buy the more sought after ones, i.e. GITS, Inception, Jaws etc... Reject too many times and risk having your collectible number revoked. Some collector's will just burn out after being expected to buy the 'majority' of whatever FAC decides to pump out. None of these editions from the beauty shots alone are pulling me in and make me want to buy them. 3 separate editions and a frickin' box for a WWA steelbook 4+ years after initial announcement is ridiculous anyway. Way too much and way too late I'm afraid :sleep: Next....
 
I had an order request in for the Maniacs box set with Filmarena... but after seeing the final reveal and the fact that it costed £192 plus customs charge... I just couldn’t justify the price :sorry:

Dear collectors,

let me kindly provide you with some current information from our positions.

Today we have completed the second premium edition of ALLIED and BB #7 13 HOURS edition will be completed on Wednesday, September 9, 2020.

Delivery of SHAZAM! discs arrived today and we can start completing the E1, E2, and E3 editions.

After returning from holiday, this week we checked the ALLIED and SHAZAM! Hardboxes, which unfortunately did not pass and will have to be reprinted again.

Unfortunately, the new production of Hardboxes will have an effect on the postponement of the FORREST GUMP and GREMLINS editions.

JOKER beauty shots are waiting for the final confirmation that they can be published. That could happen in the next week.

We apologize for the wait and thank you for your support and cooperation.

Regards,
JC for FA and BB

Dear Collectors,

FORREST GUMP Editon 1 lenticular magnets have arrived and they look awesome.

We kindly inform you that we have been waiting for the booklets as they were delayed due to the Covid measures at our printing partner. We were assured they should arrive by the end of October.

Thank you for your support and please accept our apology for the delays.
Enjoy your weekend.
Best regards,
Jan

Dear Collectors,

let us kindly inform you about the status of preparations for individual editions and some news.

Within several days we should receive the delivery of FORREST GUMP T-shirts, which is the last part of the MANIACS BOX mosaic we have been waiting for. By the end of this week, we will start sending orders that contain this FORREST GUMP MANIACS box. Along with the FORREST GUMP editions, we will ship the GREMLINS editions, which have been waiting for the FORREST GUMP box to be completed.

Completion of all three editions FAC 140 JOKER in the HARDBOX should be ready by December 18, and gradually, as the editions are completed, we will send them to you together with KING KONG.

We apologize, but the production of lenticulars for the FAC 141 - 144 editions has been delayed, and due to the fact that these lenticulars will be delivered on December 21 - 22, we will not be able to assemble these editions this year. We will return to completing these editions after the Christmas holidays and plan to start dispatching them from January 11, 2021.

Let me once again apologize for the series of delays that have accompanied us practically all this year. We will try to apply the acquired knowledge for release date planning in the next years.

The MANIACS BOX BACK TO THE FUTURE is still in approval, so we decided to use the titles GODZILLA 2014, GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS E1 + E2, and KONG: Skull Island for pre-orders within December 14 - 17. If the BTTF MANIACS BOX is approved during December, we will deploy it to pre-orders in January 2021. Other titles coming soon for pre-orders are DOCTOR STRANGE E1 + E2, CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR E1 + E2, DOCTOR SLEEP E1 + 2, WIZARD OF OZ, ANNABELLE COMES HOME.

By the end of this year, we managed to complete the update that many of you have been waiting for a long time, namely completing the digitization of our warehouse, including the electronic connection of reserves of previously released FAC or BB editions, which we need to keep in case of unexpected matters such as damage or loss. We have already tested some titles in test modes, everything worked without problems, nothing prevents the gradual deployment of other titles.

Thank you very much for your support and cooperation.

We wish you a Merry Christmas holidays and we wish everyone who is experiencing any troubles that our lives will soon return to normal.

Best regards,

JC for the FA and BB teams
