Are you looking for digest or full feature? I beleive Ken Films released "Hong Kong Connection" divided into 3 or 4 digest 200 feet. It appears on Ebay once a while.

This very title is now on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Super-8-MM-Ken-Films-Hong-Kong-Connection-Kung- Fu-black-and-white-/280914607297

and the other series:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-FISTS-DOUBLE-K -BLACK-AND-WHITE-SUPER-8-KUNG-FU-/200774316794?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ebf14f2fa

The third reel something with "gangster" but I cannot recall now. May be others can chime in.

Just fyi, in ebay German there are plenty Hong Kong films on super 8mm such as films starred by Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and other Kung Fu movies. These are very popular in Germany in 1970s.

No, I don't think a full feature was released in English version. I don't know if it is originated from Hong Kong, hence in Cantonese or Mandarin. But I doubt it too, since I never heard Hong Kong ever released super 8mm prints at that era, perhaps 16mm?

Or may be you can find it from Germany, but they tended to use different title for the same films. Nevertheless many Kung Fu films in Germany are in German and also edited to 2/3/4 reels so not the full versions.

You visit Ebay.de below:

Super 8mm at Ebay German

or there is a dealer from Germany who also member of this forum where I used to buy Kung Fu movies from him. His name is Andreas Eaggling (my spell may not correct).

I believe he reads this post and if you leave your profile open (with email address), he may contact you by PM.

BTW, welcome to this forum. I also a fans of Kung Fu movie. Have been completing the (real) Bruce Lee on super 8mm. I have two Jacky Chan.

I don't think there are many Kung Fu fans in UK, aren't they?.
