I messaged 88 Films to ask them whether Disciples of ShaolinThe Chinese Boxer and Flag of Iron will be available on Amazon.com as well as Amazon.co.uk since they're being released as Region A and Region B. I got a message back and it was simply: "Wait for July 10th."

I'm taking this as a positive though. Hopefully, those of us in the US won't have to pay any crazy shipping fees for these releases!

I preordered Disciples of Shaolin and Flag or Iron from amazon.uk and I paid 3,77 £ for the sipping to France.

Looking at @KUNG FU BOB's cover for The Chinese Boxer, I think that maybe I should also preorder this one too...

I just took a look at their site and searched for Shaw Brothers, and they only show 10 titles, among which there are 3 out of stock movies ! I wonder where the other titles disappeared !!

I'm happy to say that @ShawAngela you are mistaken, and @LiuYiLong is correct. These upcoming Shaw Brothers releases from 88 Films WILL all have slipcovers with brand-new artwork from... Hmmm, I forget the artist's name. :coveredlaugh

How about Robert P O' Brien aka Kung Fu Bob as the artist's name that has been forgotten :bs_martialgreeting:

Solid selections. Not likely upgrade everything immediately, but flag of iron and monkey kung fu are instant buys(own only ivls of those while rest are r1/r2/B discs). And Hero, ok movie but seen only cut version. It`s only logical to put out big names first and gather huge stable fanbase but hope after few years we will get rare/obscure/little known swordplay movies too on BR.

If I'm not mistaken, Spectrum also plans to release Hero.

Or will be a tough choice for me : 88 or Spectrum ?! 😱
