I've never worked out why this is so hard to get gold of when ALL other HKL titles are. You'd think HKL would want people to buy it.

Yeah you're right the one on HKL's website is the single discer. It looks like it "could" be OOP, very strange I know but according to Sendit (who're usually accurate) it's been deleted:

http://www.sendit.com/video/item/7000000080593

I can only find one store who even list it:

http://www.choicesdirect.com/templates/ ... D=NFOR9131

It's £16.99/24.86$ delivered (£2 postage to post outside the UK).

I'd order it straight away as it's likely if they have copies they don't have many. I recommend Choices Direct btw. I've used them a few times.

I'll post a question over at the HKL forum.

If you can't get it from Choices Sentit offer a video/dvd hunt service. It could be pricey though.

EDIT: Direct link over at HKL on this subject:

One of the mods has come back saying can it be bought at HKLs site but is hidden: http://www.hongkonglegends.co.uk/index. ... &art_id=73

However it's listed as being £35 and the link doesn't work properly anyway so I'm suspecting it's a bug. He's also suggested going to: http://www.hongkonglegends.co.uk/brucelee

Make sure you load the Flash version and buying from there, but when I do in either Firefox or IE (click on "Buy Now" that is) nothing happens at all.

ICE it maybe worth a try.

You reckon that's expensive?

Sure I agree it's not the best price but for a PE it's decent enough. I doubt I'd go much higher though.

I didn't spot the "view basket" button on the top right hand corner until just a second ago. It works now.

p.s - Try eBay.

I wouldn't consider this worth the effort of trying to find it. As far as I know, it's just some new interviews and the same print as the old DVD - no Fortune Star stuff or anything

Nice one ICE.

The AV is the same except the PQ is in a higher bit-rate (which means very little). It's a pity as the PQ needs improving but still it does have a second disc loaded with decent extras.

£2 per order is a decent postage cost.

p.s - Please post if Choices can source WOTD: PE.

The R4 of WotD is the 2-disc Platinum Ed, it's NOT a LE either. That'd be easy to obtain.

The HKL version is easy to get - just buy it from HKL direct. It's £15.99 on their site, which isn't too bad considering its hard to get hold of anywhere else and its a 2 disc set...

I only find R4 cheap if CD WOW are selling them, otherwise they're the same or more expensive.

In this case the R4 is £13 from DVD Crave so not much cheaper really.

That's the old 1 disc release NOT the PE. The PE is on HKL but is something like £35 as mentioned further up this thread.
