BREAKING Sold-Out The Phantasm Sphere Collection To Be Released In July
It has been one of the most asked Phantasm-related questions over the last year. WHEN ARE MORE SPHERE SETS COMING OUT?! The answer is they are now available for pre-order on Amazon with a listed street date of July 13th.
In October 2019 the PHANTASM Sphere Collection reached Best Buy stores across North America.
This new limited-edition collection of the Phantasm films included a scale-replica of the Phantasm sphere, a new 4K scan from the original camera negative of Phantasm II, and so much more. For the first time ever, this new transfer of Don Coscarelli's director's cut included the never-before-seen X-rated sphere/gore sequence banned by the MPAA at the time of its theatrical release. Coscarelli supervised and approved this new transfer. (see full list of features here) Best Buy very quickly sold out of all copies and it became a hot collectors item on the re-sale market.
Fans who were lucky enough to get a copy shared photos of their sets across social media. There was even a signing at Burbank collectables store Dark Delicacies.
Bloody Disgusting was one of the first websites to report the exciting news on the return of this set.
It seems like the Phantasm movies are frequently being released on Blu-ray and then soon thereafter going out of print, but a brand new re-release is now on the way this summer.
Looking like the same set that was released back in 2019, this set from Well Go USA includes all five films in Don Coscarelli‘s franchise, along with an officially authorized, full-scale replica of the original Phantasm killer sphere prop! Well Go explains, “This sphere was sized to the exact measurements of a screen-used prop in Don Coscarelli’s personal collection.”
Now we know the exact date: July 13th on Amazon. Phans! You better act fast. Over the last 24 hours the pre-order allotment on Amazon has already sold out several times.
