Time Bandits 4k
The 4k rendering of Time Bandits is amazing. It makes a great addition to my extensive video library of DVD's, Blu-Rays and 4k movies.

Great quality. Great collectable
Came undamaged great quality put it up on a shelf next to my steelbook version of season 1 glad I got it. This show is so great. Owning a great quality version of it physically I'm so happy about. I should note I don't plan on taking out of the plastic shrink wrap it comes in. These in my opinion are great collectables so not opening either season. If I want to watch Ill just watch it again on netflix.
