~ STAR TREK I-IV gets the 4K treatment, finally ~
on September 12, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
The original STAR TREK finally comes to 4K format. Although not the complete 6 movies for the original crew, this set has the first 4 in the series. I can see why they did it this way. Marketing and cost.
These movies were released from 1979 to 1986, marking STAR TREK IV to be 35 years old now. All four looking pretty good on the 4K format with improved sound in English 7.1 Dolby TrueHD.
I have an additional sound bar that the audio goes through instead of using just the TV speakers. You can hear so much more.
For picture quality, there is a difference I have noticed. If you play these back on an UHD TV with HDR, you will most likely see a difference although not groundbreaking. The most difference I saw was the The Motion Picture, particularly in the beginning scenes in space where craft are going to and around the Enterprise. I believe there was some touchup work done there for the 4K. I have the previous Blu-ray on that and it was noticeable for me.
THe movies looked really good for their age and am proud now to own this set. The packaging, well, it is okay. At least we have the discs separated in their own cases, 4K and Blu-ray versions.
Artwork is good, no artwork on the discs themselves.
Black for the 4K and standard Blue for the Blu-rays.
The 4K discs say on them that there are special features. There are NO SPECIAL FEATURES on the 4K discs. This is a misprint.
I do not count Audio Commentary as special features.
That is in the SETTINGS selection where you can pick whatever you see there for Audio.
ALL SPECIAL FEATURES for each movie are on the Blu-ray discs.
The cardboard outer shell is a bit flimsy much like that of the Indiana Jones set released earlier by Paramount.
The artwork is good, but that outer box will be tested over time for wear and tear.
All in all, a good to excellent set for the first 4 movies in the series. Hopefully, we get the other 2 sets to follow,
V, Vi, VII then VIII, IX, X. I am only assuming they will do it this way to keep the cost down for consumers, or they could do the last 6 at once.
Recommended if you really want the 4K upgrade, which is worth it to me.

~ THE THING (1982) finally on 4K disc ~
on September 12, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well, here we are. THE THING (1982) finally gets the full 4K package treatment. Now, this movie does look pretty incredible on the 4K TV with HDR. I have owned the previous Shout Factory edition and that had the 2017 4K scan on a Blu-ray disc.
This edition does look slightly better than that one on my 4K equipment.
I would highly recommend playing this back on a TV with HDR capability to get the maximum presentation.
Sound is incredible through the soundbar in front of the 4K TV.
Included in this set is the standard Universal Blu-ray that has been out for sometime. No artwork on it other than blue lettering, which is typical for Universal Blu-rays for the most part.
The actual 4K disc is the standard black with white lettering.
Fabulous to finally have it, if you don't have the other set from Shout, I would recommend getting this.
The Shout version has so many more features in that set.

~ A Quiet Place part II gets the 4K Steelbook !

Posted by: 93Vet

A beautiful steelbook with artwork throughout. The movie is good, a continuation of the original one, where the family must now move on and find others to help in eliminating the enemy from existence.
The way has been found, now, executing that way on a mass scale is the key to survival.
It's a good sequel and the packaging is well done.

What an incredible set for this awesome series! I knew it was coming. Although, I am surprised that each one of the movies has not received it's own Steelbook 4K version. The very last one did, though as far as I know.
All packaging is outstanding and movies are housed in their own black 4K cases, with an additional Blu-ray version of each movie.
Digital copies are also of each movie.
The outer case is really good and sturdy, with artwork.
Highly recommended!!

~BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS gets the nice Steelbook~
on July 12, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well, anyone that grew up in the '80s knew that after the huge successes of Star Wars and 1980's The Empire Strikes Back, got more Sci-Fi than they could handle. This meant TV shows as well as movies.
Roger Corman saw a way to do a SW like movie and make some money to boot. In my opinion, he was successful in doing that.
Bring in some known names from the decade and see how it all goes. John Saxon was brought in to play the mean bad guy,
Richard Thomas from The WALTON's TV show to be the main good guy trying to get mercenaries, George Peppard from TV's The A TEAM, and Sybil Danning, and icon of the era, model, etc.
Robert Vaughan rounds out the well knowns as a lone mercenary that joins the fight out of boredom.
The movie looks good and sounds good now. Fans of the movie should get this edition. The Blu-ray has artwork on it as well as the steelbook itself.
Nice edition!!
There are some special features, including a new interview with Actor Richard Thomas on the role of Shad in the movie and how he got it, etc.
The menu is really nice, moving background with music and easy selections.

Friday the 13th part II gets the 40th Steelbook
on July 1, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Friday the 13th part II, gets the Steelbook Blu-ray for the 40th Anniversary and it doesn't disappoint. If you are a fan of this killer franchise, get this one. The artwork is pretty good for the most part.
This movie is the introduction of Jason Voorhees to the series.
This is the Deluxe Blu-ray version, the same as the one found in the previously released Paramount 8 movie set.
If you want a more detailed comprehensive set of the franchise, I may suggest you get the scream factory set of all the movies, and I mean all of them in the series.
I cannot wait for the 40th Anniversary edition of Friday the 13th, part III Steelbook, also. I have always loved the artwork on that and the movie.

~ The Steelbook version you should have ~

Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Michael Keaton plays the creepy BEETLEJUICE spirit here to get under the skin of would be houseguests. It's a Halloween favorite every year for me, along with Hocus Pocus. Michael would go on to do the awesome BATMAN in 1989.
This Steelbook is fabulous throughout. The artwork is much better than that of the newer version that came out recently for the 4K release.
The blu-ray here is decent. I found a good deal on a 4K disc itself and added it to this Steelbook.
Recommended, especially if you are a Michael Keaton fan.
Watch this during October to get you in the mood for Halloween.

~ A Quiet Place makes the 4K steelbook debut ~
on July 1, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you love Science Fiction movies about aliens coming to Earth and wreaking havoc on society, this one may be for you. I liked the idea, as it has not been done before to my knowledge in movies.
An alien force has come to Earth and made all humankind scared to even make a noise. You see, if you make loud noises of any kind, the creatures will find you as they hunt by sound.
A family must survive in their farm house surrounded by land and trees, with several creatures lurking about for their next target.
I thought the cast did a great job and I liked the movie.
Will definately see the sequel when it arrives on the 4K format.
Recommended, but not a movie for small children in my opinion.

Flash 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?
Of interest concerning MS., PAC-MAN on my tabletop, there are several versions of the game. These are the only ones that I know of:
MS. PAC-MAN Original
MS. PAC-MAN Speed-Up
MS. PAC-MAN Plus
MS. PAC-ATTACK

Since you bought it from BEST BUY, give them the receipt and ask for a replacement or a refund since it was damaged and defective. BEST BUY is the seller and they are responsible.

Another 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.

Ms PacMan Cabinet
By Oval
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.

Definitive!!!
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.

Excellent movie. Not perfect, but great movie.
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.

Very pleased, excellent transfer
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.

Excellent 1up Arcade game cabinet!
By PacManPlayer
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.

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.

Arcade1Up - Pac-Man Legacy 12-in-1 Arcade
 

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

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.
 

Is the play exactly like the arcade version? Does it offer "normal" and "fast" speed modes?

Hey Ed, this is the normal arcade version from 1982. No, there is no SPEED UP version on this unit.

I know that this cabinet comes with the normal speed version of mrs pacman, I was just wondering if there was any possible way that I could enable the faster pace version. I just find it way more entertaining and enjoyable. Thanks

Interesting question, Jacob. I don't know if it can be messed with to make it super fast, or the speed up version.
I have that SPEED UP version on my tabletop as well as 2 other versions,
MS. PAC-MAN PLUS
MS. PAC-MAN ATTACK

Will this be fast Ms Pacman or slow Ms Pacman?

It's the traditional MS. PAC-MAN, not the speed up version. After the 1st Apple screen, she does pick up speed.
I have that and 3 other versions of MS. PAC-MAN on my tabletop game.

I wish they would have had these on the MS. PAC-MAN cabinet:
MS. PAC-MAN (original)
MS. PAC-MAN Speed up
MS. PAC-MAN Plus
MS. PAC-ATTACK

Is this the same steelbook as the region free Titans of Cult version? It has the same cover art.

I believe it is, Al. It's a beautiful steelbook. My favorite of them all.

Pre-order? By the time you guys decide to take orders the cabinet will be released at this rate.

Agreed on that. Still says coming soon on October 5. I think some others have taken orders, but, Best Buy usually has a different version than they do. Light up Marquee, other games.
