88 usually begins preorders a few days before release date, but Amazon, Zavvi et al might have it up a bit sooner.

Mine arrived two days ago, but I had too much work and couldn't watch it.

I'll try to watch it this evening or the week-end.

All work and no play makes ShawAngela...

Listened to the second half of Kung Fu Bob’s commentary today and I think it’s been one of the most enjoyable commentaries for a long time. I hope he can do more, would particularly like to hear him do one for The Prodigal Son and Warriors Two if they get released.

Yes please! Kung Fu Bob is shaping up to be quite the indispensable man. His talents have vastly enriched the releases he’s worked on, and I hope he keeps up his excellent work!

Hoping the £25.99 listed price The Young Master is a price glitch. A Tenner more than other JC titles in the line?

not surprised since they're trying to include that dinah shore JC interview footage

This price was set before there were talks of this interview footage. The interview footage is probably not even baked into that price. 

They said if was going to be special from the time they announced it and im really curious to what plans they had and since the price 60-70% more than previous releases.

Oh yeah, and I guess I’ll throw in NEW FIST OF FURY for completist’s sake :)

Does New fist of fury have been announced as a pre order yet ? I didn't see it on 88 Films, and I saw an ebay seller selling it, and it also seems to me that I had seen it on zavvi a while ago...

Or is it that I missed it on 88 Films ?!

Thanks brother! Not that your praise has gone to my head or anything, but I've formally requested that from here on out my family refer to me as "Indispensable Man". :wink:

It's because it will be a very special release.

There are talks about having Jackie Chan actually hand deliver each copy purchased. And by "talks" I mean: I suggested it, and I'm still awaiting a reply from anyone. :thinking

Thanks for the link @saltysam ! I checked their FAQ and it seems that they deliver to Europe.

It also looks like that there won't be any slipcase for this release ?

At least, it's cheaper than at the ebay store where I was it, and I like the cover...

I expect it will have a slipcase, probably KFB hasn't finished his art for it yet?

It will have a slipcover  with my art. They usually do a reveal closer to the time that it's going up for pre-order.

Cant help wondering if they’re having a laugh, at the expense of people complaining about the price of The Young Master? If they are then, brilliant!

Don't think anyone is complaining about the £25.99 price point ,just curious what the set will contain . I'll be buying it, heck i've just dropped £50 on that german Blu of Deadly Angels and i've never seen it :cool

Looks like Young Master will be delayed.

Yes, and New fist of fury too. I re eived notifications from zoom.uk and they tell me that New Fist of Fury will be released on the 30th of November, and that The young master is "TBC", but I don't know what it means...

To Be C...?
