Well, the movie could have been better overall. I mean, cars in space now? It was entertaining and the steelbook is beautifully done.
Had to have it for the series finale.

This steel book version is really nice, but I would have liked the movie itself to be a bit better overall. Gal is Gal, she is Wonder Woman and did the best she could with the script given. I think she looked good and the sound was good.
Artwork throughout.
Got on a good deal on this, less than $14.
I hope that the next standalone WW movie is far better and has a script that is worthy.
For me, the movie is 3, the steel book is 4.

It's a 40-year-old horror movie that still holds up.
There are a few familiar faces from the era of 1981.
The blonde actress of the group is none other than that from An Officer and a Gentleman.
Jack Albertson stars as the crazed scientist behind the entire town.
Melody Anderson, from FLASH GORDON (1980) stars as the wife of the Sheriff, played by James Farentino,
THE FINAL COUNTDOWN (1980).
The Sheriff is on to the recent murders occurring in the town and an investigation turns up some disturbing revelations.
This is a brand new edition and a good one to own!!
The soundtrack is outstanding as well.
This one comes with the fantastic lenticular slipcover!

5 out of 5Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it's good.
By laopwh
Flash Gordon isn't for everyone, but it is a good movie set in 1980.the music score is what makes the movie really good because new score is all done by Queen. What makes the steelbook really good as it's the 40th anniversary of the movie itself. Anybody knows the story behind Flash Gordon knows the story itself. Flash Gordon, Dale Arden, and Doctor Zarcough have to find a way to stop Earth's destruction. Not knowing that Ming the Merciless is behind everything and Earth's destruction. Having the 40th anniversary edition come out on steelbook is worth every penny.

Step right up to the counter and play away. Arcade1Up's next generation of countercades is here in a new form factor. Take it right out of the box, plug it in, and start gobbling up pellets. Perfect for home bars, offices, dorm rooms, or anywhere else you'd want to squeeze in some retro gaming, Arcade1Up~s countercades are compact in size, but always an enormous amount of fun. Yep, here she is. Possibly a diva but most definitely an icon, Ms. Pac-Man. Guide her way through those mazes while evading Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Sue. In the mood to switch it up? You've also got the classics Pac-Man, Plus, Galaga, and Dig Dug all inside. Featuring authentic gameplay with real feel controls, Arcade1Up's countercades are the way to bring that classic arcade experience home, even if you're short on space.

Hi, I have Ms. Pac-Man on a tabletop version and it is exact like the genuine ARCADE version from early 80s. In the original version of the game she starts out slow and then she speeds up as you clear a few screens, around the PEACH and APPLE stages.
Is it the same here on the countercade version?

4 out of 5Another great package from Arcade1up
By TRAINMAN0703
The very best aspect of this over Arcade1up's original Pac-Man offering is the upgraded monitor. The original Pac-Man's image would wash out when you looked at it from a slight angle. This rendition does not do that. The image is bright and crisp from any angle. The monitor is also set further back in the cabinet and tilted more, which does not sound like much on paper until you actually play it and compare it to the real arcade machine.
I buy these things solely with modifications in mind, therefore I did not play any of the included games right out of the box. For those who do not "mod" these, the assortment of games is a vast improvement over the chintzy offering of a mere 2 Pac-titles in the last Pac-Man cabinet. I am baffled by the inclusion of "Galaga" however. Pac-Man's "lady friend" would have been great here, but she is getting her own royal treatment (and deservedly so) soon. I must point out that they did change the way the control panel mounts to the cabinet and how the lower two front-facing panels (these are also slightly resized) directly below said control panel install. Because of the alteration(s) to the control panel, you cannot just slide in/out the panels below it, which will make for a tricky assembly process. The shape of the cabinet itself is another notable improvement as it veers much closer to capturing the profile of the real thing. The speakers (yes, speakerS) are now housed behind/under the marquee, which is also far more arcade-like not just in looks but also sound reproduction.
The light-up marquee, light-up (albeit non-prototypical) control deck, bar stool and riser make this package the best value of any Pac-Man 40th anniversary offering, as separate-sale risers are VERY hard to come by; and, to my knowledge, the 40th anniversary-themed bar stool is not sold separately at all. Again, I will gripe that the design on the riser does not look like a natural extension of the cabinet. The faux-wood grain should be on the sides and the black in the front. Oh well. This can be fixed with after-market graphics for those who really feel the need. I think I personally would have preferred the cabinet to be yellow like the 1980 prototype, but the "cabaret" models of the time did indeed have a wood grain finish, albeit with no graphics.
If you did not get the original Pac-Man cabinet from Arcade1up, this is most certainly worthy of consideration. Other than the slightly trickier assembly, this is an improvement in almost every way.

40th Anniversary Special Edition from Best Buy..
September 15, 2020
Hi, great review of the newer version of PAC-MAN from Arcade1up. I am going to get this one for my upcoming 54th bday! Yes, I am showing my age, but, I was 13 when the original cabinet came out. I loved it then and I still love it now. I would have to agree with you on the riser part as per the graphics, but, I think they were going for a contrast look. Agreed also, they should have continued the wood grain on the sides and kept the black on the front to make it look uniform. I do love the SPECIAL EDITION from Best Buy. Not only do you get the light up aspects of the unit, you also get the stand with the graphics.
My only complaint would be the unit having the AUDIO switch setting too loud if you go beyond 1.

That's too bad. I think you got a glitch in the part where the circuit board is. I had the original GALAGA/GALAXIAN game and in some games on the GALAXIAN the screen froze up right in the middle of playing. I was not a happy person. I got rid of it and sold it cheap to someone else that wanted GALAGA, which had no issues.
SUPER PAC-MAN is going to be on the MS. PAC-MAN cabinet coming soon AND there is a SUPER PAC-MAN cabinet from COSTCO that has it on it's own. This just came out within a few days to a week. September 15, 2020. You have to go to COSTCO and find someone with a membership to purchase. You cannot get it online to my knowledge.

Packaging was great and care has been taken to protect the parts in transit. Assembly was about 1.5-2 hours from start to finish. I was taking my time to make sure I didn’t scratch any pcs during assembly. The cabinet looks great and the light up marquee really makes it stand out. The graphics on the riser add a nice touch as well. The cabinet comes with dual speakers and the sound quality is good. I bought the cabinet for Ms Pac-Man but having Dig Dug was a bonus. Overall I’m really happy with my purchase and would recommend.

By SirDevoidOfHate
The definitive collection, and probably the last one you’ll ever need (unless they do a 4K release in the future). The first four films have never looked better, period! And if you’re a 3D supporter (we’re a dying breed these days, but we’re out there!) then you will love finally having a proper 3D release of Part 3! Also, having the Unrated Cut of Jason Goes to Hell is a major plus! The bonus features are very informative, though it’s a shame that the Crystal Lake Memories documentary isn’t included. That’s not to take away from what Scream Factory put together. This is an AMAZING collection!

Uncut version of JGTH/Jason X
October 31, 2020
HI, I have this set as well from Shout! Factory and it appears there is a minor audio issue with Jason X. A sound effect is not present when Jason goes to kill a woman character in the movie.
JGTH seems to be missing a scene from other reviewers I have read on. I am not worried about this as I have the UNRATED DVD from Lionsgate already.

By Misterday
Great movie. But so removed from the original animated movie, you might enjoy it more if you consider them to not have anything to do with each other. There’s no music, no Mushu, no romance. The only real thing making it a Mulan movie is her name is Mulan. They don’t do a great job of making you feel like she’s a boy in the army. It’s a lazy gender bend if you ask me. But the movie has everything a live action Disney movie can want or need. Great story, great special effects, great score, great action and emotion. Just don’t compare it to the cartoon too much and you’ll like it a lot more.

By NateC
Unlike some other buyers, luckily my copy came right on time and in perfect condition.
The movies themselves are phenomenally mastered with crisp picture, robust hdr color/contrast, and awesome 4k textures I've never seen before on previous inferior versions. These look excellent in my home theater and serve as the new showcase for my system (which used to be Mad Max: Fury Road). The steelbooks are attractive and come with cushioning foam in the slipcase to protect them from rubbing against each other.
Not as much extra content (i.e. The Appendices) as previous versions, so I'll need to keep my old copy as well.

Brings back memories of hanging out at the Arcade with a pocket full of quarters when I was young. My daughter absolutely loves it and we enjoy seeing who can get the high score on this 40th Anniversary Pac-Man. The custom stool is nice and the backlit Marquis and control deck is really nice. The led control deck has a button on the right that can change the colors or slowly rotate through all the colors. The replay value is good for the list of Pac-Man games plus you get Galaga! Very happy.

You're going to hate buying this version when a New 12-1 Legacy Edition is coming, better cabinet, more games, for the same price.

93Vet's Questions
Retrogaming fans and pop-culture enthusiasts have been clamoring for it, and here it is courtesy of Arcade1Up: the Atari Legacy CENTIPEDE Edition home arcade machine, for the first time in a form factor shaped just like the original classic arcade cabinet!
There are misleading images of this unit's screen size when showing Centipede. The game is a vertical game as it should be. However, there are photos of it being squashed or horizontal. Which is it?

Evolving from its 1958 beginnings as an amusement game manufacturer, Midway produced some of the hottest arcade games of the 80s and 90s, that have since been adapted into film, television, and much more.Their monsters-wreaking-havoc title Rampage~was a giant early hit, and then leaps in live action digitizing technology led to Mortal Kombat~, recognized as one of the most important titles in video game history. With it~s over the top darkly humorous gameplay and finishing moves, Mortal Kombat~became an instant franchise with iconic characters and enduring catch phrases.
So, what's the actual date of release now? Arcade 1up had it in March and Best Buy says Dec. 31, 2021. lol There are many of us eagerly awaiting to get this unit when Arcade 1up SAYS and sends an email stating it is READY for Preorder.

Does this come with a deck protector as well? I know the most recent ones have had it, but this does not specify.

Does it have adjustable speed for ms Pac-Man? They use to sell them back then with ability of speeding the entire game up. Made it more challenging
Hey Robin, it looks like they have it in the setup menu where you can go in and change settings, etc. for each game. I have 2 Legacy Editions, and that is a new feature on those. This one looks to be the same, with 12 games in all. I have the original Ms. Pac-Man with 4 games cabinet, and you cannot adjust the game settings on that one.

Just to make sure. This product includes the riser? Thanks!

Where is the preorder button for this? All I see is coming soon...what gives?
All I see is COMING SOON at BEST BUY and GAMESTOP says it is not available. Not sure they know what they are doing when it comes to actually having it ready for PREORDER.

why until march 30, 2021 I need this by feb,26
I know, right? I am not sure why Arcade !up is waiting for this one on that particular date. I would like to have it sooner myself since it has been on pre-order here through Best Buy for several weeks now.

When do you charge a customers credit card on a pre-order
Hi, I just ordered mine today, 28 January, pre-order, and Best Buy sent me an email stating that I WOULD NOT be charged until the item itself is shipped. Which is currently March 30th, 2021 on release day. Anytime I have pre-ordered items here on Best Buy with my account, I have NEVER been charged prior to the item shipping or pickup in person. That is a fact.

Set up your gaming room with this Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console. The classic upright design has a midsize profile for seamless fitting in tight spaces, while the 17-inch LCD screen offers crisp visuals for complete immersion. This Arcade1Up Ms. Pac-Man arcade game console features four games for a complete nostalgic experience, and the coinless operation allows unlimited play.
I don't see an option for extended warranty. 30 day warranty is not long enough. Is there some way of getting an extended warranty?
Yeah, I got this directly from BEST BUY and it does not have an extended warranty. You could ask the GEEK Squad there for info.

Does the game come with the riser as shown? Also, is the the fast version or the slow version of Ms. Pac-Man?
Yes, it comes with a custom riser. The Ms. PAC MAN on this is the actual arcade version. It gradually speeds up, it is NOT the FAST version.

So this cabinet shows Ms Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Galaxian, and Super Pac Man. The other cabinets I have seen show Ms Pac-Man, Galaxian, Pac Mania, and Pac Man Plus. Are different retailers getting different versions.
Yes, WAL MART has it, but it has the different games PAC MANIA and PAC MAN PLUS. It does NOT have the light up marquee or the custom riser, either.

On Game stop.com they have the exact same cabinet with the light at marquee will Best Buy do a price match because that one is $50 cheaper
The Best Buy one has the custom riser and the light up marquee. If GAMESTOP has that on the unit, then get it cheaper. Also, the games may vary depending on the seller.
