Pretty sure those are just repacks of the WVG blus which are cheaper by a few euros to begin with and still available.

The next in the Asia Line series is the Indo/Taiwanese joint production, THE GHOSTLY FACE for all the Polly Shang-kuan fans. Unfortunately looks to be German only which is a shame since it includes Wu Ma's DEAF MUTE HEROINE as a bonus.

According to spannick, more German blu ray titles from Koch media are on the way.

The Black Hill Pictures blu rays (dvd editions are also available) of MAGNIFICENT RUFFIANS and HEROES SHED NO TEARS are currently listed on Amazon Germany for pre-order but there was a question if it will be English friendly. But it's been confirmed by spannick that these will indeed come with English subtitles.

A couple more Asia Line Shroder Media dvds on the way. #21 is THE DEVIL'S SWORD (Der Herr der Krokodile). The Indonesian flick starring Barry Prima. I believe the Mondo Macabro dvd is OOP but it's still easy to find on the used market for a decent price.



#22 is is THE BLACK PANTHER (Chen Sing Die Faust im Genick). This has been out on that Neu label with English dub. So don't know if this is the same transfer or not? The bonus film is KUNG FU HEADCRUSHER aka TOUGH GUY starring Chen Sing.

The release date for the TVP 2 disc mediabook blu ray of RETURN OF THE ONE ARMED SWORDSMAN is Dec 2nd. The specs originally stated English dub in addition to the original Mandarin & German audio options but it has since been deleted. Amazon Germany also had a placeholder which stated English audio but it has also been taken down.

TVP also shared a short before and after video clip of the restoration work going into the GOLDEN MASK.

According to spannick at KFF, the next two Shaw blu ray releases should be a couple more Chang Cheh flicks in THE DAREDEVILS (1979) & POLICE FORCE (1973).

IVL is releasing both OILY MANIAC and MIGHTY PEKING MAN region free on blu ray and is up for pre-order now for an October 15 release date.

More exciting for me is the pending blu ray release (10/30) from CN Entertainment HK of Chang Cheh's SHANGHAI 13. I have this on R2 PAL Terracotta dvd but will upgrade.

I wouldn't mind HUMAN LANTERNS since the German release wasn't English friendly. My pipe dream is THE AVENGING EAGLE. It's a travesty that this isn't out on English subbed Blu already. But the whole Dragon Dynasty fiasco with this title....which reminds me, why doesn't Weinstein do the honorable thing and just off himself like his buddy Epstein and save the taxpayers..
