~ Predator gets the nicely done Steelbook! ~
on July 1, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as the leader of a U.S. Military expedition to central America, where they were sent to rescue U.S. officials. However, the story was mixed and hidden to get them there. Upon arrival, there is no rescue plan of officials, only to take out rogue members of a military operation doing dirty business.
Arnold, leader of the group, rants his disagreement to Carl Weathers, the civilian lead in the group sent along with them.
After some fights amongst themselves, they realize something else is hunting them in the jungle and it isn't the rogue military members they just destroyed.

Highly recommended! This steelbook is fabulous with artwork.
The blu-ray looks good, picture wise, but no artwork on it.
A blue painted disc is all you will see.
Add the 4K disc to this steelbook and it's a best of both worlds!

This classic starring Paul Newman and Robert Redford really never gets old to see. The 4K upgrade is pretty good for the film. It's not perfect, but it is a better upgrade overall.
If you like these two actors and a cast of many others including Charles Durning (Tootsie), and Robert Shaw (Jaws, Force 10 from Navarone), check it out.

From the "Pretty in Pink" writer/director team of John Hughes and Howard Deutch comes this engaging teen comedy/drama. Eric Stoltz stars as sensitive high school outsider Keith Nelson, who pines for the beautiful and popular Amanda Jones (Lea Thompson), all the while oblivious to the fact that his tomboy best friend Watts (Mary Stuart Masterson) is carrying a torch for him. With Craig Sheffer, John Ashton, Elias Koteas. 94 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English; audio commentary by Deutch, Thompson; interview; featurettes; more.

~ Another '80s classic gets the deluxe steelbook ~

Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Yet another classic from Director John Hughes, one of my favorite Directors. The steelbook looks gorgeous and the artwork throughout is spectacular. Much better than any release so far to this date. I have the other 2 '80s movies from him on steelbook, Pretty In Pink, and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Get those also because they are well done throughout. There is actual artwork on the discs as well relative to the movie theme.
A great cast for this movie, love it.

I love these newer John Hughes steelbooks, but I would have preferred a 4K version with it. It's good on the 4K player and 4K TV though. A better upgrade than that of the analog DVD, certainly.

~ Molly Ringwald stars in another '80s classic ~
on June 21, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Another good '80s movie starring Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer, and James Spader, from 1986. The movie is pretty good all the way through and if you are a fan of Molly, I say, get this now. There has been no steelbook versions of her movies, until this one.
The artwork is rather nice, focusing only on Molly herself for the cover. I believe that particular shot was from the poster featuring the other male stars, Andrew McCarthy and Jon Cryer.
Nice artwork on front, back, and inside as well as the disc itself.
I love the record look of the disc. Well done!

PSYCHO gets a better artwork 4K Steelbook..

Posted by: 93Vet

Psycho has already been released in the 4K format before in another steelbook. That could have used some better artwork in my opinion. It was mostly black and had a knife on the front with Janet Leigh's picture in it. That was about it.
There was also another steelbook for the standard blu-ray release some years ago, pinkish in color and was pretty plain.

If you have not seen it on 4K, you owe it to yourself to do it. It is cleaned up even more from the previous Blu-ray release that has been out for years. Detail is much better on the 4K equipment.

Beautiful steelbook on this movie! I love it all the way through. Now, at least we get some artwork that is pretty nice, even on the actual disc instead of the bland gray or blue shade.
It has a nice glossy finish to it also, rather than the matte type.
Looking forward to the others from 1986, "Some Kind of Wonderful" and "Pretty In Pink" from John Hughes.

INDIANA JONES complete 4K Steelbook set!

Well, we finally get the INDIANA JONES 4 movie collection on the 4K HD format and digital!
I personally was not looking to get a set that had the Blu-rays as well, so I only wanted the 4K steelbook package.
I have to say I am disappointed in how Paramount did the overall box that houses these Steelbooks.

Poor cardboard design and fairly easy to get messed up before you even get it in your hands.
From other reviewers here writing about that, I knew I most likely would not keep it. The steelbooks were okay and pristine on my set.

Compare THIS to the one we got for the Blu-ray set some years ago and it's a shame to say the least.

It truly shines now in all it's 4K glory. The previous blu-ray I had from way back in 2009 was not that great in my opinion.
It looks and sounds spectacular now for all the HD TVs. Get THIS one before it is out of print!
Artwork is spectacular, though I would have also preferred artwork on the discs as well. A minor thing for me, but it can and was done on other releases such as SPEED, and DIRTY DANCING, to list a few new 4K steelbooks.

Wow, I have to say, this is the definitive edition steelbook for this movie. It is gorgeous, and although it is an older movie now, it shines as ever in this format. The music, the scenes, it's like watching the movie all over again in a new way. I really like it now.
If you are a fan of Patrick Swayze from the 1980s, 1990s, I say get this edition soon. The artwork on the discs and the steelbook throughout is gorgeous. Well Done!!

~ THE BIRDS gets the 4K Steelbook release ~
on May 28, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Alfred Hitchcock's THE BIRDS gets the UHD 4K steelbook release and it comes out a winner all around. Now, THE BIRDS was previously released on 4K in a box set with other Hitchcock movies in the 4K format, but, it did not have a standalone set. It also had previously a Blu-ray steelbook release with different artwork on it. After the initial run of that, the prices went way up, so I am very happy to see this arrive. The movie itself is just another brilliant take on Mr. Hitchcock's movie making style and suspense.
It looks and sounds fantastic now in the 4K format. I have never seen it look this good on the 4K TV and player.
All special features have been brought over from the previous releases.
This also has the digital copy of it, if you collect those.

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.

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.

4 out of 5Excellent movie. Not perfect, but great movie.

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.

The ANIMATED versions are better, overall. These remakes tend to twist the storylines a bit too much, like that of Maleficent, for certain.

5 out of 5Very pleased, excellent transfer

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.

Yes, agreed on the extra content. The Blu-rays have already been previously released, so, I didn't expect them again in these newer sets.

5 out of 5Excellent 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.

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.

will this charge my apple tv remote?
Not sure, but I asked the Best Buy tech on duty and he sold me one similar to this one for my Galaxy 21 phone.
It works well. My advice to you would be to go in person if you can and tell them your question. They should point you to the correct item that will work for you.

Most steelbook editions contain the DVD as well. Do any of these contain the DVD's? And none of the special features are listed. I am particularly interested if the 4k/blu-ray have extra features that the DVD's do not. Thanks for your quick reply. Cathy
No, there is no standard DVD in this one or the newest release with different artwork.
The special features are on the Blu-ray disc itself.
Behind the scenes, gaffes/goof real, etc.
I believe it is the same special features released.

Will this item ever be available to order? I see you all still have thor 1 and 2 on steel book
Your best bet now, Dan, is to find one on Ebay or similar. It has been 5 years now, so it is most likely out of print.

Does this have a sip cover?
It did when it first came out on 4K. I don't think it can be found in the brick-and-mortar stores with one now in 2022, 5 years later.
You may have to go to ebay for one.

The Terminator returns in this explosive action-adventure spectacle. Now he's one of the good guys, sent back in time to protect John Connor, the boy destined to lead the freedom fighters of the future. Sarah Connor, John's mother, a quintessential survivor has been institutionalized for her warning of the nuclear holocaust she knows is inevitable. Together, the threesome must find a way to stop the ultimate enemy-the T-1000, the most lethal Terminator ever created.

Most of these did when they were first made. Now, I am not sure if you would get one with this purchase.
