Member Django Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Is there any love for Kung Fu tapes out there? I have a soft spot for the format. Not because of the quality but because of the sleeve designs, nostalgia and because I'm a collector type of person (especially when it comes to physically media). And of course - some VHS releases of these movies are to this day the best versions that exists.. I'd love to see your collections! Also, anything about KF tapes - can be discussed here. Here is the highlights or my collection 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 I absolutely adored the old Kung Fu VHS covers, the Neal Adams art for SITES and DM was epic. Unfortunately i don't have any VHS tapes anymore, i'd buy a book featuring all the old covers though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member saltysam Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 I remember buying that Crystal Fist tape in Eastern Heroes Store on Shaftesbury Avenue. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Django Posted June 19, 2021 Author Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 Very nice. The sleeve designs are amazing, I wonder why most of the first and second generation of DVDs had so crappy designs? Ocean Shores had amazing cover designs, however I don't own any of them. Prices on collectible tapes are crazy.. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, being from Denmark I had to import Eastern Heroes, MIHK etc. back in the 90's. Could only afford about one or two a month back then. Then I had a brainmelt of retardation and sold most of my collection. Been buying them all back in the last five years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a sucker for those sleeve designs, huge nostalgia for me and just love the look of them. Yeah, most DVD sleeves were shit.

Member Ninja Sinai Posted June 20, 2021 Member Share Posted June 20, 2021 I still have Invincible Armour and Death Duel of Kung Fu both on VHS in Mint condition. I know it’s not a kung fu movie but I also have Stir Crazy (Richard Pryor) on VHS still brand new factory sealed and never been opened or played. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always enjoy OS cover labels they really stood out I Loved them from childhood Especially when they print there location and street at the beginning of their films,and also the cassette tapes. 🤔 I always wondered/wanted to go to: Ocean Shores Video LTD 1711 Hang Lung Center Patterson St.Causeway Bay Hong Kong. 😧😧 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DarthKato Posted March 29 Member Share Posted March 29 I don't really like watching movies on VHS anymore, but I do love looking at the covers. Man, they knew how to make a cool movie cover back in the day. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
