This arrived and I'd say it's ok quality not the best, the print hasn't got visible pixellation but is not the sharpest and it does ride up slightly over my bust when I lift my arms, it's not the worst for that it generally rights itself without me having to pull it down when I put my arms down again, but yeah I might request a return and refund

Unfortunately that's Rarewaves in general. Most of the time now you will get each item shipped separately in a cardboard envelope, which is usually ok for regular plastic cased discs, though the Scanavo cases like Criterion use are weak at the center of the spine so getting a little bend there is unfortunately common in my experience.
If you're less lucky you'll get one or more stuffed into a bubble mailer.
Either of the above will tend to mangle corners on flimsier cardboard like Criterion's digipak cases.
If you hit the very rare jackpot you may get things shipped together in an actual box.
You'll get better packaging but pay more at Lime Light. Zavvi will usually use the foldover cardboard mailers. Deff used to package very well but I haven't dealt with them since they returned so don't know how they are now.

The spoopy ghost hoodie was sooo disappointing the print is decidedly low res looking, will be returning for a refund 
But! The jellyfish dress is very cute and a good comfy fit, the coat... is glorious!! So much shininess and, and... pinkness! It fits really well too and is very warm and cosy, it's one of the nicest things I've ever bought from Temu (that's emphatically not meant as damning with faint praise, it's amazing, and the faux fur trim on the hood is fully detachable which is great for me cuz those kinds of things tend to aggravate my OCD), I absolutely love it I've been wearing it indoors cuz it's cold/any excuse! Was def worth what I paid for it (around £50)

2025 HAUL - NOVEMBER v3
Yesterday I went to York to check the shops but also watch the new Predator: Badlands film at the cinema (which was great). Got a few things.

#03 | HMV Haul
In HMV I picked up four more films for the 4K Ultra HD collection, three of which are from the 3 for £50 deal and another just got released at the end of October which I did try to get but they didn't have the 4K version in stock.
James Gunn's Superman is the new release here and I really enjoyed it when I watched it at the cinema last July. It's the start of the new DC Universe but works really well on its own like an episode of the animated series. The film starred David Corenswet (Pearl), Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), and Nicholas Hoult (Nosferatu).
From the deal we have Ridley Scott's 2005 film Kingdom of Heaven. This epic historical film I've heard about over the years recently saw a 4K release earlier in the year for its director's cut (which has a runtime of 193 minutes) which is considered the better version of the film. The film starred Orlando Bloom (The Lord of the Rings), Eva Green (Casino Royale), and Jeremy Irons (Die Hard with a Vengeance).
Next we have Darren Aronofsky's 2000 film Requiem for a Dream. The psychological drama film I've heard bits about though I know more about his other film Black Swan which as you know pretty much is a remake of Satoshi Kon's Perfect Blue. In fact there is a scene in this film that's a recreation of one of the scenes in the anime. Either way, outside of that stuff, I have heard the film in general is pretty good so I look forward to checking it out. The film starred Ellen Burstyn (The Exorcist), Jared Leto (Tron Ares), and Jennifer Connelly (Phenomena).
And last but not least is David Fincher's 2007 film Zodiac. This mystery thriller film I do actually own on Blu-ray but I never got around to watching my copy. Sadly this UK version of the 4K release doesn't have Dolby Vision which is on the US version, but from what I read as the film is also an upscale from the 2K master. The release includes the theatrical on 4K and the director's cut on Blu-ray. The film starred Jake Gyllenhaal (Nightcrawler), Mark Ruffalo (Dark Waters), and Robert Downey Jr. (Tropic Thunder).

#04 | Mass Effect Legendary Edition
Next we have Mass Effect Legendary Edition from CeX. This epic space opera Action RPG is a favourite of mine from the Xbox 360 days and a few years back it got remastered for modern platforms. I saw this was in stock last time I went into York but I decided to hold off, but yesterday I wanted to own it so thankfully they had one available still. This collection includes all three games with quality of life improvements (especially for the first game) and a majority of the original game's downloadable content on the disc. I won't be playing this right away but definitely will be before the next instalment is released.

Was going to put the new(ish) hardback of the complete collection on my Christmas wishlist, even though I have vol 1, but checked my shelves to see that I also have vol 2, so bought this myself. Bit of a shame it's not the same size as 1&2.
Shadow Cat
Death Scythe
I had £20 in my play account I didn't know about, so decided to buy the Bunpo Plus Lifetime subscription for £41. The app seems to offer more helpful stuff than Duolingo while also being less controlling / obsessive
I wasn't really sure to "unlock" the app as I hate app based "subscriptions" where you could loose access just because they decide to discontinue. But at that point might as well call it - Cost me a £25 top up voucher. So I have to use the app for 25 days to justify it lol

I received the first anime Steelbook from my 10-steel pre-order from Crunchyroll US yesterday 12/11, and decided to do a little photo spread for it:
Gushing Over Magical Girls Collector's Edition Steelbook
Also, the new Lupin the Third: Castle of Cagliostro Collector's Edition Steebook is on it's way, and the Akiba Maid War Steelbook is In Progress.

A click and collect from HMV.
Roaring Currents. Bought it partly because Choi Min-Sik is in it. I loved Red Cliff so fingers crossed.
Constantine City of Demons.
As a fan of DCs animated output, I can't believe I missed this. I hope!
My memory isn't so great. I recently bought Blood The Last Vampire on Blu-ray and then found my DVD
. When I was looking for my anime DVD version.

I had no idea this existed. Fortunately there seem to be a few places to pre-order the non-Kickstarter version.
