Apocalypse Now: The Final Cut looks stunning now in 4K for the 30th Anniversary Edition!
The overall package, design and discs are all nicely done.
Picture quality and sound are fabulous and it makes you think you are right there with the guys in the military boat making its way through the river.
All special features have been brought over from other releases, and you get the HEART OF DARKNESS feature as well.

HIghly recommended for all those that love Robert Duvall.
His portrayal of a Colonel in this movie is spectacular.
Martin Sheen also does a great job as the Captain put in charge of the boat to destroy a lunatic colonel out in the jungle.

~ SPEED 4K Steelbook is nothing short of Superb! ~
on May 14, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow, what can I say about this 1994 movie that was a smash hit for not only Keanu Reeves, but Sandra Bullock as well. I believe it was her first major starring role. She did THE NET after this one and the rest is history for her. Keanu was already and up and coming star in his own right. He's one of my current favorite male actors and has two hit franchises to his name, THE MATRIX and JOHN WICK.
This newest release is just stunning now in 4K. It has never looked as good, in my opinion and I already owned the previous Blu-ray put out by FOX.
Special Features are really good and looks like most of them were brought over from the 2 Disc DVD set that was released years ago.
The discs themselves even have artwork on them as they should be for a nicely done release as this. Kudos all around!

PAC-MAN finally gets a deluxe version 12 - 1 unit.
on April 8, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Finally, we have a Pac-Man unit that has 12 games in it and makes it one of the best cabinets for sale for the price point of about $400.00 retail. I have to say, get this unit if you are a fan of the Pac-Man games themselves. The only one that is missing from this is Jr. Pac-Man, the one with the scrolling maze that goes horizontally.
This is my 4th Arcade 1Up cabinet, and it looks outstanding.
The game play is outstanding as well.

The game play is outstanding as well.
Once you are on the game select screen showing the 12 icons, be sure to go to the "Settings" screen for each one. Instructions on how to do that are visible and press the appropriate button.
You can make adjustments to each game, starting lives, level of difficulty, etc. You could not do this on previous cabinets. I own the Ms. Pac-Man 4 in 1 and there is no such settings menu.

The games will SAVE your high scores as long as you do not unplug it from the wall.
The joystick is a bit clicky sounding when maneuvering as opposed to the original arcade unit where it was fairly silent.

The coin op black box on the front of the unit is painted on, it is not a sticker. The custom riser is fantastic and really adds to the overall look. I am over 6 foot, so it is definately a plus.
Now on to the assembly. The owners manual and assembly manual are both outstanding in detail.
Whatever you do, when you are ready to put the screen into the unit, take OFF the plastic on it first. The screws on the screen have plastic underneath it as well, so, LOOSEN those a bit so that when you take off the plastic, it will come right off no problem.
Then, you can retighten the black screws back to position.
This will save you a big headache of having plastic around each of the screws.

This will save you a big headache of having plastic around each of the screws.
Now, the metal screws on the game board where the buttons and joystick are located, you can take a black permanent marker or black model paint and cover the surface heads. This way, it will be black and won't stand out so much on the black surface. Looks great.
The tiny screws that go into the plastic cornered parts are a bit of a pain to get in, so take some time on those.
I built the custom riser first, and then started the unit.
Give yourself about 3 - 4 hours for all of it. If you are a first time owner of one of these, you may break the assembly time up into sessions. It gets tedious if you are doing it yourself.

Make sure the final side panel fits secure into all the wooden pegs, etc, before tightening the screws.
All in all, a great cabinet to own for years to come if you take care of it. The custom riser and light up marquee look great and the overall look is outstanding.
Delivery was outstanding as well and nothing was missing from the box itself or damaged. Highly recommended!

Casper gets the 25th Ann. Steelbook...
on February 9, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Beautiful steelbook for the movie version of the ghostly cartoon.
Great artwork throughout the steelbook.
I would have liked this release to get the 4K treatment, however.
I think a black 4K disc and the Blu-ray with some Casper artwork on the actual disc would have been superb.
Still, a fun movie to sit and watch with the kiddos at Halloween or anytime they feel spooky enough to see the friendly ghost.

My Bloody Valentine gets the 4K scan Steelbook...
on February 9, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
What a great steelbook for a 1980s slasher! This one is perhaps the best horror flick for Valentine's Day. This is the original 1981, not the remake.
This is a 2 disc set, much like that of the Scream Factory release with the slipcover. I am a collector of the steelbook format, so if it's good enough in overall artwork, I will buy it.
Special features are all brought over from the previous 2 disc version, but I have to say, the artwork on the actual Blu-rays are different than that of the slipcover release.
Disc 1 is the Theatrical release.
Disc 2 is the Uncut release with more intense kill scenes that were cut out of the original due to the movie ratings at the time in 1981.
The 4K scan looks really good on the 4K TV and player.

Friday the 13th, 40th Anniversary Steelbook...
on February 3, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
So, the 40th Anniversary Edition of Friday the 13th is probably as good as it is going to get. It's a killer package and even includes the digital copy. Artwork is fantastic on front and back.
Inside has artwork as well, not just a plain steel look as some of the early steelbooks of films or ones that don't go the extra effort to make it spectacular.

This Blu-ray is the UNCUT version and has the same features as previously released on the Blu-ray format.
The only minor gripe I have with this set is the blue color Paramount decided to use on the actual disc.

They could have used the poster front artwork as seen on the cover of the steelbook. There is one like that, but it is part of the fairly new released Scream Factory box set of all the F13th movies together in one massive set.
All of those have the individual artwork on the discs.
I am a steelbook collector and am looking forward to the PART II being released next month.

The Hobbit gets the Steelbook 4K exclusive set!!
on January 19, 2021
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
Amazing and beautiful set in steelbook form for all 3 Hobbit movies!
This set is strictly the 4K UHD set. There are no blu-rays in these since they were already released prior in extended versions and theatrical.
I have to note that anyone who buys these 4K sets will have to know there are NO Appendices in them.
Those special features discs were previously offered in the Extended Blu-ray sets. So, don't expect them in these 2 new sets offered.
I think they did only the 4K to keep the costs down overall on the package. It's quite expensive, regardless but beautifully done!
My new set and The Lord of the Rings arrived UNDENTED. I am grateful!
Highly recommended!
Picture Quality and Sound in 7.1 Dolby Atmos are incredible.

Mill Creek distribution has never been big on offering such items as Special Features. It's basically the movie and perhaps some type of audio alternative.
Menus are easy selections with the 2 movie titles given for each disc that is played.
Highly recommended if you are a Rita Hayworth Fan!

The Lord Of The Rings Steelbook set, finally!
on December 2, 2020
Posted by: 93Vet
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a beautiful set and I am very thankful I did not receive a damaged set, like some did. Yes, this is a metal case and can be damaged in shipment. Fortunately, my set was protected. There is no dents or scratches on it and the steelbooks themselves are in outstanding condition.
Each one is protected in a velvet like sleeve.
The picture and sound quality are outstanding and the Dolby Atmos is superb.
There are NO Blu-rays in these sets. These are the 4K sets only and there is a Digital code for each movie on 1 piece of paper located in the first movie case.
I am very happy with my set here, still awaiting for THE HOBBIT Trilogy to arrive.

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.

5 out of 5Authentic arcade experience
By BBShopper
This is the 1UP Arcade to get. Ten games, including MK1, 2, and Ultimate 3. Scan line filter and difficulty settings are available on each game. Some games have additional options. MK1 and 2 have flawless emulation. Ultimate MK3 suffers from occasional slow down when a lot happens on screen. Otherwise it plays perfectly.
This is my first 1UP purchase, and I'm very satisfied with this purchase. I'll pick up more as my favorite games are released.

Received product like many items recently shipped from bestbuy in plain mail envelopes with no padding or protection, when i am spending 80 to 100 for something that comes in a special edition box i expect it to be protected when shipped not placed in a stand mail envelope. the box was torn up and one of the steelbooks has a very visible scratch on it. i understand its not a hard box surrounding the steelbooks but when i ship stuff i protect my items bestbuy just likes to charge full price and not give a crap i am so close to being done and going else where. hopefully i can find this in store at my local best to swap out. had the same issue with recent movie BackDraft the steel book came and look terrible was even bent during shipping.

I hope you knew that 4K discs DO NOT play in standard Blu-ray players before you wrote this 1 star review for the movie. You should have known by now that 4K discs have to be played in their own players and can play the others, DVD/Blu-ray. Game systems also have to be able to read the 4K UHD disc as well. 4K is a step up from Blu-ray, overall.

By Ninja
The art is amazing, the panel graphics are fantastic. They did an amazing job remaking this 20th anniversary cab. The screen is ultra clear. Fantastic game selection. And every game has online leaderboards which makes the replay value great. I keep coming back to this cab wanting to get in the top 25. Arcade1up’s quality has really improved over the first gen cabs. They knocked this one out of the park.

Thank you for taking the time to convey what I was thinking without having it physically, yet!
Looking at the cabinet up close with the pictures provided here on Best Buy, it looks like they have redesigned the Volume control and On/Off white buttons also. They look to be flat now, as opposed to be the white pegs they are on the PAC MAN Legacy Edition I own.
Is that an upgrade design for this one? Just curious.

I got this assembled just fine, but then the joystick fell apart after the first play. I got it reassembled, but now it's loose and doesn't feel right. The controls don't respond right either. I am really good at this game and score well in arcades, so something is wrong. I shouldn't have to repair parts for a brand new machine. Not impressed.

Hi, that is a shame and I feel for you. Hopefully, you will get your money back on this. I should say that PAC MAN Legacy Edition is really good, but I feel like the joystick could have been built better. It works, but it really clicky whereas the real one from the Arcade is solid and does not make any noise. That is the only drawback I have on these units, the joysticks are not built well enough.

I should say though they did not have the Appendices, which I believe this one does?

Had the Ms Pac Man cocktail table, which I love. Class of 81 blows that one out of the water. Selling the cocktail cabinet.
Lit marquee, best graphics and side art arcade 1 up has ever released, lighted deck with 8 color options, wifi and online world leaderboards, dip switch settings to customize difficulty and speed (software update even added rapid fire to Galaga ... and since it's wifi the update takes place as fast as adding an app to your phone)
I have 7 cabinets and this is by far my favorite. Even got some world high scores!

Thanks for the review! I have to say, I was impressed with their graphics on the STAR WARS cabinet and TEMPEST Atari Legacy Edition, of which I own. This one looks great as well. The lighted deck seems to be a new addition. Good to know!

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.

Does the movie come with the slipcover in 2022?
Not to my knowledge Ajay. You might have to find one on Ebay. I have seen less and less slipcovers for older movies.

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