The Phantasm: Sphere Collection [Blu-ray]

At this point, if you are lucky enough to find one, buy it! The bonus features are actually interesting. I was close to giving it 4 stars only because the sphere itself is not perfect. The seamline is easily visible where they did whatever they did to try to hide it. It almost appears as a flat band around the entire sphere. But since I'm not even displaying mine, I'm good with it. I Just wanted the discs!

Coolest blu ray collection ever. This is a must buy for any horror fan

So excite to get and greatly disappointed to open box and see a damaged item. One side badly damaged,seal broken like it had been opened, and box ripped inside. This is a collector item! box condition is very important. Very disappointed that best buy would send a product out in this condition. Called customer service resending item.

Best Buy did a great job with my packaging and the box arrived in mint condition via mail. I had seen at my local Best Buy a box that was smashed on the bottom due to customers playing with it as it's not a sturdy box. I was skeptical initially but I went for it and am very happy that I did. The set is great!!!! Now, let me let you in on a secret....If you have a bad box or a good one did you know you can get an even better box???? On the official Phactory website you can get just the box and have it signed as well from Don Coscarelli for a whole 19 bucks?!?! The new box also removes the plastic window so your ball can punch outside the box with forks enabled. That's a steal and a great addition to an already awesome set!!!!!

I wasn’t able to get the first Phantasm box set that was released when the fifth film came out, but I was able to pick up this beauty on release day. Film-wise you get the Bad Robot remastered version of Phantasm with more special features than the stand-alone remastered blu-Ray. Also a newly remastered version of Phantasm 2 with additional gore that had to be cut originally to avoid an x-rating. I don’t have the Scream Factory Phantasm 2, so I can’t compare but this is the first time the additional gore scenes have been shown. Also included are the third film, part 4 Oblivion and the final film Ravager as well as a bonus disc that focuses mainly on Ravager. For packaging, the discs are packed into a nice digibook with glossy pages. I would have preferred individual slip cases or plastic holders to the cardboard sleeves but the digibook is still nice. The down side is that the discs are just black with the film titles on them. The inside covers have the original poster art for each film but the seam runs right through part 3 Lord of the Dead, so that’s a bit of a con compared to Well Go’s previous box set that had individual slip cases with reversible cover art. The big draw though is the inclusion of a screen accurate scale ball (a clear stand and attachable spikes are included in the box). It is packaged in some impressive artwork of the Tall Man, Reggie, Mike, Jody and the Cuda with rose colored stained glass illustrations. The entire box set is designed to look like a mausoleum or marble urn down to the rivets on the side of the digibook making it look like a name plate. Overall this or the previous set Well Go put out are the best option for franchise fans. I would have loved the full sized poster from the last Well Go box set but getting a sphere replica and new cut of part 2 in its place is awesome.

These new "sphere collection" from Well Go USA is a great set of all five films in the Phantasm series presented on Blu-ray and comes with a prop-replica of the "killer spheres" from the films! The prop itself is really nice and comes with a stand for display. The films are all housed in "book-style" packaging. Each film gets their own disc, plus an extra disc filled with bonus features and content. One of the highlights of this set is the inclusion of a new remaster of Phantasm 2, which you can only get in this set as of this writing. (not sold seperatley) If you are a fan of this film series and don't own any of these already, this is a must own. Plus he inclusion of the prop sphere is really cool!

Despite some flimsy packaging, this box set is great. It has all five movies plus a bonus disc, and a new remastered version of Phantasm 2. All the full size sphere is just awesome

If you have the previous box set, there might not be enough here to upgrade. You're no longer getting a booklet & a poster, but you' re gaining a cool sphere replica (it's plastic, but the quality is very good) & a new scan for Phantasm II. It will be up to you to decide if things like that are worth it to you. :) Only downsides for me is the construction of the outer cardboard set (wish it was more solid) and the book/paper sleeve holders for the discs. The previous set had all the movies in separate slim cases.
