I already have the HK blu-rays of Big Boss, Fist of Fury and Way of the Dragon but I wonder if this set will have improved transfers?

Buying Japanese blu-rays often will drain your wallets

That Frank langella dracula is hugely tempting!

Well it seems I am able to answer my own question,

apparently they have they same masters but with added colour correction plus the options of the original mono tracks.

It's possible but we'll have to wait and see.

I think it could be locked. I believe the rest of those 2 movie sets are. Certainly the When A Stranger Calls / Happy Birthday To Me one is, as I have it.

The When A Stranger Calls / Happy Birthday To Me blu is locked but some Mill Creek blu doubles have been region free.

I don't have any Bruce Lee films on BD, so that set will demand serious consideration.

I'll wait for the individual releases.
Hopefully we'll get some art like Stephen's vhs tapes....

I wouldn't hold out hope. 4 films. Double features more than likely. I think they'll look as bad as these....

I love the box set but the price is a bit steep for me at the minute.
