Just seen this one on the german ebay site, does anyone know what year this would have been released? I am assuming this price is extremely high even considering its rarity?

You can pick it up on std 8 Perrys did from this version for about £15.

Thats a nuts price as they are about on 9.5 as well.

Best Mark.

Sure wish I could find one of those, and at that price - the only version I seem to come across is the awful collectors club version.

In my eyes there is no comparison between any 8mm (or 16mm for that matter) version of Metropolis and the 9.5 version...The clarity is outstanding on 9.5...i have a french print I am willing to sell and a tinted UK version I will never sell..

Wow Dino those are beautiful screenshots, did not realize a tinted version was in existance in this format (or any for that matter apart from the Moroder version ofcourse) you say you are willing to sell a french standard version? Any idea of a price?

I agree...totally spectacular screen shots Dino. What a treasure to own [Smile]

Matthew I would be willing to sell the French print (which is not tinted of course) for $125 US plus whatever shipping..
