Bulk orders will get cancelled and be made available again for the steelbook

Best news! I already preordered both editions but i'm glad bulk orders (scalpers) are getting cancelled so people with real interest in the edition, instead of people who buy to resell for profit, are getting a chance to get themselves a copy!

Not sure the amount of hits to website is overloading the arrow website looks like they don't have the capacity to handle the amount of hits to the website causing it to crash

This release has a huge demand probably the highest demand release they had to date

Has the demand been big for this Paul? Is that why the website crashed again?

Explain it one more time please

We are hoping that the Arrow store will be back up and running this weekend, but currently have no firm idea when.

Almost perfect release with the only thing missing for me being a Blu-ray of "The Thing From Another World" (1951) - one of the best sci-fi films of the 1950's standing shoulder to shoulder with "Invaders From Mars", "The War of the Worlds", "The Day the Earth Stood Still", "Forbidden Planet", "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", "The Quatermass Xperiment" and "The Incredible Shrinking Man".

As for this artwork: it goes without saying that it's a classic and an improvement on the 2013 U.K. horizontal steelbook artwork even though it's over-familiar as cover art on home video releases going back to the days of VHS through laserdisc and up to DVD, Blu-ray and now steelbook:-

Would hate to be the oncall engineer at Arrow this weekend.

Rule #1 - Don't make changes on a Friday.
