Obviously these are no longer HMV exclusives, so maybe the thread title should be adjusted.

These ones seem a little out of place, the first set all seemed to be comic book or fantasy related, then you've got Green Zone and The Big Lebowski (which I'm gonna try and pick up anyways haha) they just dot really seem to collaborate with the first wave

 

[Wappersha]

Not too impressed with this 2nd wave. Even less with the higher prices.

They are down to £9.75 now at Amazon.

I'm still hoping hmv will get these in, in their 5 for £30

My local hmv hasn't got any in at all

Still none in Trafford centre. Had loads of Warner 90th slips but they're selling very fast. They got 39/40 and the missing one is se7en.

That will be mine.

Really liking that Gladiator one!

I like the slips ahead of the steelies. Not sure this kind of artwork looks great on a steel but that might just be because I can't afford them

I'm usually all about steelbooks, but in this case I absolutely agree with you... this style of artwork/design seems to work a lot better on the slipcovers IMO. I guess it's because cardboard slips better represent comics than the shiny metal of a steelbook does.

 

[Emac21]

I have to have that Gladiator slip.

 

[Sigill]

I wonder why they are just showing the amaray cases with the artwork. On the last batch they showed them as slipcovers?

 

[tridon]

Yeah, I have to agree; the Gladiator one is definitely the best one out of that wave.

 

[ricster]

Gladiator does look very nice. Nice price too (nearly choked in breakfast cereal)

Bit worried pic just have amaray and no slip because the wording exclusive sleeve could just be the paper sleeve in the amaray case.

Also why no kong in this wave ????

 

[PunkNinja]

I want them all!

Strange, isn't it? Spain has had a comic-cover Kong in DVD form for quite some time now.

Gladiator looks great. But Bourne trilogy on Reel Heroes Slipcover. HO. LO. ****

 

[GVZER]

Hmmm, it doesn't make sense, non comic book movies getting comic book covers, I just can't process this. Only one I got was Shaun of the Dead, I'm gonna pass.

Yeah, they seem to be milking the idea now. I originally wanted to get all of the Reel Heroes editions, but I already own most of these films on Blu, and I'm not sure I want to double-dip just for the slips.

I agree, and don't get me wrong, Gladiator looks awesome, but enough is enough lol
