With Well Go USA Entertainment recently purchasing the rights to the series, this set makes complete sense. In fact, the company announced a series set when they gave us the theatrical release date for Phantasm: Ravager. So, while “Phans” have been getting antsy wondering where the set was after Ravager and the original Phantasm came out on Blu in December, we now have our answer.
