I was clicking through the Blu-ray section on Amazon at future release titles, and on the 18th December one of Iver Films F/L features makes its Blu-ray debut, it's "The Diamond Mercanaries", not sure if its region free, but definetly region "B". It's got a good cast, a nice cheesy 70's plot, and some fine action along the way, it's good to see some of the older titles making it onto Blu-ray, I already have the Roger Moore South African set "Gold" which is a fine print too, all great nostalgia titles!

I have the Iver digest and the Blu Ray of "Gold". The Blu Ray transfer does show up how much the Iver print is cropped on all sides. I believe one review described it as "having the worst over-scanning in the lab" that he had ever seen.
