The Jimmy Wang Yu Collection - Shout Factory

[Chemical Lemon]

While I was checking the info on the Bruce Lee Premiere Collection I noticed they have another DVD set coming up. Haven't seen it mentioned, I think it was just listed, apologies if there's already a thread for it.

[KUNG FU BOB]

Here are the films on the set:

This Four Movie set includes:

ONE-ARMED BOXER (1972)

THE TATTOOED DRAGON (1973)

BEACH OF THE WAR GODS (1973)

MAN CALLED TIGER (1973)

Hey guys, guess who the lucky artist was that got to paint the cover art? It was really tough for me keeping this exciting job under wraps. Hope you guy's dig it.

Thanks man! I always tried to get gigs like this. Now that it's actually happening, it's far out!

Here's a close-up detail from the piece. I tried to get the "hate" in there. LOL

I'll be selling prints of the complete piece a little later in the week, for those that are interested.

Nice work brother! You're the best.

[Morgoth Bauglir]

Pretty sweet cover. I like how Wang Yu is front and center with his black hand of death.

[One Armed Boxer]

That cover brought a tear to my eye, amazing!

[Secret Executioner]

A great artwork indeed - I prefer that of the Angela Mao collection though.

[paimeifist]

Awesome, release date?

[Secret Executioner]

Awesome, release date?

Just check the link in the first post and you'll see it's set for a mid-Noember release. Guess some know what they'll order for Christmas.

[Doctor Schnabel von Rom]

Will put the box on my wishlist. will buy it because i don't have the Tattooed Dragon in my collection and there is only an hk vcd of the movie. the other movies i have allready. good stuff!

[Cold Bishop]

Not nearly as exciting a lineup as the Angela Mao set. Then again, not much they could do, seeing they were stuck with the Golden Harvest films only: no chance for Four Real Friends or Screaming Tiger or Two Cavaliers or such.

Still, congrats on the artwork. And two stone-cold classics make it worth consideration.

[OpiumKungFuCracker]

Awesome work KFB, is there anything you can do to the Bruce Lee Premiere Collection box set?

[QueMuchita]

Awesome as always…

[ThunderScore]

...and I DO Care!

[KUNG FU BOB]

Thank you guys!

As far as I know, this is the first time THE ONE-ARMED BOXER is ever getting an official home video release. Which is really shocking!

To Screaming Tiger: There is a Uncut dvd in german, german and englisch audio. http://www.ofdb.de/view.php?page=fassung&fid=3537&vid=347175

To Two cavaliers: There is a Uncut dvd in taiwan from hoker records. in original audio, but without englisch subs. but when i read about the story in before, you don't need them. the quality is not the best, but a lot better then video asia, venegeance video and Co. one important detail: on the cover stands a wrong englisch titel (Furious slaughter), but it's really the two cavaliers

i liked them both. look out at yesasia.com for the taiwan dvd and for the german dvd:

[GOLDEN DRAGON YIN-YANG]

KFB YOU got Yu right.

Excellent work brother man.

[David Rees]

Well done Bob, great stuff as usual.

I won't be buying this set as most of the films i think are poor, apart from Beach Of The War Gods and i already have the HK DVD of that.

[masterofoneinchpunch]

Good job Bob and I will be buying this set. Liking Shout! more and more.

[makone]

Excellent as always.

I really wish you had done the Bruce lee set.

[shukocarl]

Any news on the specs....original English dubs, trailers, " special features" (ha!)....?

Got the BEACH Joysales disc (OK but no dub) and the old ONE ARMED Japanese disc(non anormorhic..crappy 5.1 dub)....these look sweet though. TATTOOED 'aint too bad but TIGER is a bit...meh...

[Asmo]

Highly interesting. I only own Beach of the War Gods so this is a must.

[66 Mantis]

Awesome cover as always, KFBob!

Hoping that they're dual audio and I assume One Armed Boxer is the same edit we're familiar with (no uncut version located, right?).

[saltysam]

i'll be getting this though i have the japanese BD of Boxer and the german DVD of Beach.can't get enough classic early 70's Wang Yu
