Monster Zero x SciFi Japan - Archive Only

I got my copy from Amazon today and watched the American cut. The print seems much darker than I remember but then again I haven't watched the movie since that Icons of Toho DVD set. It still looks amazing on BD the colors seem a lot more vibrant than before.


Going to check out the Japanese print this weekend as I don't think I've actually ever watched that version.

Well Amazon FINALLY charged me. They said it will arrive between July 17th and 20th. -_- "OH GODZILLA! WHAT TERRIBLE LANGUAGE!" you Amazon!

Mine is on it's way. Now if only someone can get a Matango blu-ray out there...

If anyone can check if the disc is region-free, that would be great

I preordered at Amazon over a month ago, which is probably why I got mine same day release.

Got mine today and watched it right away. The plastic sleeve is a little warped on mine but the steelbook is fine and beautiful so it's all good. Definitely want to get the Ultraman steelbooks to match.

And WOW! Video quality looks nice, and I forgot what a great movie this was. I hadn't watched it since the DVD release years ago. Such a great film in terms of interesting story, effects, the focus on the Peanuts, etc. I'd recommend watching the first 10min of Tokyo SOS after watching this film, to see Koizumi-san's character return. I put it in right away just to watch that scene real quick.

^ I thought my plastic sleeve was creased on the edge, but then I realized there is actually a thin layer of protective plastic over the entire sleeve! It peeling off on some corners made it look like damage, but then the entire surface peeled off like a snake shedding its skin when I tugged on a loose bit. A bit weird, but I'm not going to fault someone for putting extra protective packaging on something.

Even after I removed that plastic wrap, the sleeve is still a bit warped on one side as if they had sliced too much plastic and had to wrap it around the case tighter.

Just watched it and it was beautiful, absolutely beautiful. My only nitpicks would be they still called Mothra a HE despite the subs being brand new and there is one scene where it seems like a pilot's audio is either missing or mistimed because he's screaming, but there's no dialog coming out. It's right before the 55 minute mark f anyone wants to check it out. Other than that, this is easily the second best Kaiju Blu-Ray.

The scene in question:

Well it may not be the most flattering way to enjoy Mothra, but I needed a laugh and noticed the Rifftrax audio on sale for $2. I enjoyed this in the theater, and did so again just now. Also the first time I've used the Rifftrax app, pretty cool if I do say so myself.

I haven't gotten around to watching this yet but the packaging here is absolutely next level. So thrilled to see basically the best DVD/Blu-ray packaging I've ever seen for my very favorite anti-capitalist revenge fantasy. <3

On blu-ray.com it has been confirmed that the disc is region-free

Ordered!!!!!!!!!!!

^ Nice, when I checked a couple of days ago, it had still not been confirmed, glad someone was able to do it, so you could feel confident in your purchase.
