The previous German blu ray mediabook release back in 2017 was actually a bootleg, so let's see if this a legit and it used this City Wolf 2 cover which is going to be the Cover B version.

Yeah. I mean, I still buy DVDs.... hell, I collect VHS and LDs too. But I think we've come to the point where all new releases (of any movie of any time period) should be Blu Ray as a minimum. Hell, tabgible movie media is on its last legs as it is. 

Also, been burned too many times lately by these German DVD releases that I will ever spend money on another one.

Agreed. Have it on DVD and would absolutely love a special collectors edition Blu-ray that this gem deserves.

[Daxtreme]

I didn't even know WONDER SEVEN actually existed, and now it's getting a new release. Amazing!

[ChillyChong]

 

 

Saviour of the soul is fun movie and don`t necessary need it as BR(I have pretty ok upscaling player) but €19.99 price tag makes consider about it twice or more.

 

Hopefully UK label announces In the line of duty III before German mediabook is out...in "worst"case get both and sell mediabook later.

I think that's in reference to the ban being lifted in Germany.
