Wow some amazing features, and good trailers, wish I was in the feature buying department. but too many nippers for a good few years to come. Great for the hooby as these prints go into it, all good for the future. Classic are doing some great bits and bobs too like sleeves etc for elmo`s and heads etc.Must save up for one of those( pretty reasonable though). Best Mark.

That's great news! If I hear that the quality on these is top grade - I will definately buy one of the features. I wonder if any or all of them will come with a great stereo track. I think at this point, all new releases should have a stereo sound option. The technology is there and really would'nt cost the distributor any extra $$, since the magnetic tracks are already there. I HATE having to send my new stuff out for re-recording, and don't really have time to do it myself. Nick.

Keith Wilton spoke to Phil last week and he is hoping to have prints of Spiderman available for this Saturday's BFCC. No doubt you're coming over James so you can pick one up there!!!
I fully intend to relieve Mr. Sheard of a print so will let you know what it's like.
Hooray for Classic!

Ohhhh! How I would LOVE to personaly pick up a film at the BFCC or at least CHC's store. But by the time I paid travel and lodge expences (for three), I'd be lucky to afford even a trailer But seriously, I'm gonna try to get over there some time in the next two or three years.
Looking foward to your review. It will be a toss up for me as far as choosing Spiderman or Rear Window. Nick.

Hi Nick, it's a shame that some collectors who have the BFCC almost on their doorsteps take these events for granted. Mal
