You got the original R1 release that was recalled: http://www.pinoydvd.com/index.php?topic=57296.msg639242#msg639242

Maybe you can get the disc replaced for free, like a lot of us did back when there was a problem with Back to the Future.

How many here have not had their defective Disc 1 copies replaced yet?  Ever since distributorship was transferred to a 3rd party, wala nang balita.  Nobody likes the idea of being stuck with an expensive but defective set, especially when the disc in question is a confirmed manufacturing boo-boo.

Ey, I had mine replaced last month yata yun and got the replacement from Astroplus Megamall after 2 days.  Kailan at saan mo ba sya binili?  Kung ayaw na tanggapin nung pinagbilhan mo, inform me.  I might be able to ask Studioworld for the replacement.

Mine hasn't been replaced yet...bought it at Galleria Astroplus...help!

 :(same here! i'm still stuck with the defective disc! bought the set the first day it wad released(2006 nov. i think) at astro virramall. LOL

Try to contact Magnavision/Studioworld para mapilitan silag umorder from the main supplier nung Superman Ultimate Edition.  As of now, kahit sa office nila, out of stock.  I was lucky since ako daw yung last na nakapagpapalit.

[Mr. Hankey]

Bump. Due to the upcoming release of "Man of Steel."

[duncanfranchise]

One of my friends was able to have his Disc 1 replaced but it still rotted after over a year.  Paging Magnavision: I hope that you can help us find a solution.  This set isn't cheap, you know.

Too funny. I just checked my R3 set now, and after all that effort to get the defective Disc 1 replaced, duncanfranchise is right: The replacement disc shows exactly the same defect as the original rotted disc it replaced.

Don't know if I should laugh or cry...

@Mr. H, how do we go about this?  I just rechecked my personal set & my replacement Disc 1 has also rotted already.

Checked mine as well.... there's rot!  Dammit!  Now I don't know if I should replace this with the probable Blu-ray box set inclusive of Man of Steel or simply order the individual movie.  It's the theatrical version so Amazon probably sells the Superman movies individually on DVD.  And this happens 3 months after I gave away the original box set.

[Mr. Hankey]

If you're planning to just replace the single disc by buying a copy (Superman: The Movie - Theatrical Cut), it's currently available for PHP187.50 (50% off 375 sticker price) at all Astrovision branches.

I was thinking about buying it, but was considering that it might be a waste of money, since I'll most likely upgrade to a complete Blu-ray set once the Amazon UK price drops back to £27 (it's currently £51.95, probably due to high Superman demand). And if I do buy one, I'm thinking it might rot again after 3 years. 

[seph1018]

totally gave up on this...sold my set last December.

Will just upgrade to Blu.
