What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

These arrived yesterday, I've already rewatched Year One since it arrived, and I'll likely rewatch Under the Red Hood after I finish watching the last few eps of Super Sonico The Animation, UtRH is the German edition but definitely has English audio and English subtitles (though IDK for certain yet if you can play both at the same time, but at least they're on there) :)
Have you seen The Dark Knight Returns yet? The original comic was written by Frank Miller. He also wrote Year One.
 
My cut price 4K set of Nadia: Secret of the Blue Water arrived today.

Part 1 + Collector's Box came from CEX online and Part 2 came from Amazon.

My CEX gamble paid off big time; I had no idea if Part 1 would come with the collector's box, but fortunately it did. It even arrived with the bit of cardboard mentioning space for Part 2, as well as the information sheet! There was also some leftover CEX sticker on the front of the box, but that was nothing a cloth dabbed in a bit of rubbing alcohol didn't solve.

The only negative was that there is a small dent on the back, near the bottom of the box, toward the spine. However, for the price I paid (i.e., £20 worth of unwanted Blu-rays in CEX vouchers) and considering its second hand, I can't complain really. The most important bit was the discs anyway, which are in immaculate condition.

In the end, it cost me £15 cash and 3 standard Blu-rays as trade-ins to get Nadia complete on 4K! I love animation from this era, so it's nice to have this as part of my collection for not very much cost.

Away from that, I also got Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengance from TGC during the 20% off period just gone on Ebay. This one was thanks to @Lucky_Deity; as I saw they also received this. and I noticed the "Atlus" logo at the bottom. I thought "I've been loving Atlus games recently! I've never heard of this one though...". So I did a bit of researching and like most Atlus games it appeared to be standalone, so I thought I'd pick it up for a good price whilst I could.

Once again, the great people of this forum directing me toward greatness! 😁

Since this and next month is going to be dry for home video releases, I decided to use these two months grab some very rare sets of anime from generous sellers from the US and UK.

Fushigi Yugi TV series Pioneer release (the better release) and You're under Arrest Box 2 AnimEigo.

Also, got the The Crew Motorfest via Amazon.

I definitely have more You're Under Arrest stuff coming over the coming weeks via Stackry.

I'm off for a few days so taking a chance on Handyman Saitou.
The Big Heat, quite violent for a fifties cop/revenge film. This has some interesting extras. Commentary with Lem Dobbs who wrote The Limey (a favourite) and a short interview with Michael Mann.

Bonus, it's 20% off day at Fopp and HMV.

I'm really happy with both these pairs of gloves that arrived today - comfy, good fit on my large-ish hands, stylish/cute, colours like in the pictures, and the purple suede ones at least are nice and warm outside in this current cold spell we're having (haven't worn the ski-gloves outside yet - I will say how they were for warmth in my next update in this thread when I have worn them outside) :)

I managed to get hold of another All the Anime Ultimate Edition, this time it is Giovanni's Island. It will sit nicely with my copies of Miss Hokusai and Terror in Resonance although I might need to reinforce the shelf 😅. I thought I had managed to get a copy of the Ultimate Edition of Patema Inverted but the place I bought it from screwed up so I bought the Collectors Edition instead.

I am really looking forward to watching Tonikawa and I have been playing Marvel Vs Capcom all morning, it is so great to have all these games on one disc 😊

Woah, what is that version of TimeCrimes? I love that film!
It's the Australian collectors edition, it was just released beginning of this month.

Thank you, that looks so cool!
 
I thought they were gonna be pastel colours but they're quite deep like in the photo I took, they are still nice so I might just keep them anyway, but I'm a lil confused 🤣

HMV still have an extra 20% off, selected items.
Time for me to finally start collecting Sylvester McCoy. Can't imagine they'll ever get much below £26.
The Game Trilogy. Sounds a bit like Golgo 13. At £14 for 3 movies, worth a punt.
