Has anyone who ordered through Retro Gold received their Angel Terminators yet?  I had a change of shipping status e-mail with a Deutsche Post tracking number but it doesn't exist

Some arguing about the German Bullet in the Head Blu-Ray going on at the blu-ray.com Asian forum, but found some interesting links from said argument.

Bullet in the Head - TG Vision (Main version) Screencaps

Bullet in the Head - TG Vision (Director's Cut additional scenes) Screencaps

Movie-censorship.com detailed breakdown of the Director's Cut included on the German Blu-Ray

ofdb.de page for the Blu-Ray with all the specs

One forum user said the Blu-Ray looks terrible in motion, one said it is the best looking disc that is currently out there. It seems like this is definitely an AI upscale from and SD source, but until a new scan/remaster is done I guess that is all we have. Either way, looks like a lot of work was put into making this disc.

I watched the Director‘s Cut for a few minutes today. The additional scenes are very fuzzy and hazy. There is too much noise that is not easily corrected. I will dig out my Fortune Star DVD over the weekend and compare.

Took a few caps from the Cargo release of The Killer to compare to the HKR release. HKR runs 21 seconds longer,likely logos etc, HKR Main feature is 26gb against just over 22gb for the german. HKR caps are first

[Yihetuan]

Anyone here order the German dvd of Bobby Kim's Kill Line? It's supposed to be a world premiere on dvd as previously only available on VHS and also uncut.

Kam Bo's BRAVE YOUNG GIRLS is coming to DVD from TG Vision Gate. Up for pre-order now and English friendly. Two cover variants. I have the FLK dvd rip which is watchable but not the best quality, so I wonder if this is any improvement?

I haven't had issues of not receiving an order yet.  Tho every order I have done, the tracking has been lackluster.  I have a friend that had his order didn't show up, but they gave him a refund.

First draft for the artwork of ANGEL TERMINATORS III from Shamrock which is daft as there is no ANGEL TERMINATORS 3. This is clearly the artwork for MISSION OF JUSTICE with Carrie Ng centerstage, Moon Lee off to the side and looks like Mark Houghton at the bottom
