Great job brother! So cool you’ve finally gotten this. I know the search has been long and often frustrating but so stoked you got a copy in decent condition! The denting issues all came from The Hut Group. Arrow’s parent company and the ones responsible for shipping the boxsets out. They have a huge warehouse that handles all the various different companies the Hut Group own. I had hoped they would have made custom sized mailing boxes like they did for Shawscope but sadly they just used the closest size boxes they had at the time, way too big with next to no packing materials. And it being such a heavy set, they were all rattling around inside all the way from warehouse to customers. Almost every set I’ve seen has some issues. Looks like you got a great one. Enjoy it brother! I’m still working my way through mine. Excellent video 👍👍
Thank you Brother Dragon! Yes so happy to finally get this and in great condition. I'm going to be living in this thing for a while haha. And thanks for the backstory about the dents!
I was very lucky to get hold of a dvd copy of this, one of my mates had a friend who had a brand new unopened copy up for grabs at retail price. You are in for a treat mate!
@@MartialArtsTheater3000 Jason this is probably a hugely controversial thing to say, but I don't think Enter the dragon is that great. It's too western for me, Bruce isn't in it as much as I would have liked and the shot composition of the fights isn't the best. Like I know how much this movie is adored and worshipped by legions, but I would rather watch Fists of fury or Big boss any day.

Nice one! Yes I'm blown away with this set and I've barely scratched the surface

If I had known this wasn’t going to be in stock for long I would have bought it. I thought the Yellow box was the limited edition.
I know, it was gone with a quickness! If you keep browsing Ebay, you can find it but it's pricey
What a beautiful set! I wonder if there's any chance Arrow will reissue it? Or release the docs as standalones?
