MAGIC CRYSTAL is part of our Vinegar Syndrome Archive collection, celebrating forgotten cinematic oddities from the video store era. This collection was inspired by our own brick & mortar video stores, with locations in Bridgeport, CT; Aurora, CO and soon to come Toronto, ON!
Unique to this line, each hand numbered limited edition release will come fitted in a specially designed, bottom loading VHS inspired slipcase, while also including a double-sided poster.
These releases will ONLY be available on our website and at participating indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them. This slipcase edition (designed by Tony Stella ) is strictly limited to 5,000 units and may (but probably not) be followed by a standard edition in the future.
Andy Lo and his comedic sidekick, Pancho, are freelance special agents who are called in by the Hong Kong police department when they have a mission that needs to be kept "off the books." One day, Andy receives a letter from a former colleague in need of help and, together with Pancho and Andy's young nephew, Bin Bin, heads to Greece on a secret mission masquerading as a vacation. After Andy's colleague is killed, Bin Bin accidentally ends up with a suitcase that contains a magical talking crystal. Soon, a group of KGB agents, lead by the sadistic Karov, are after Andy and his family in an attempt to retrieve this mysterious artifact. With the help of two Interpol Agents, Andy must stop the KGB and uncover the secret behind the magic crystal before it's too late.
MAGIC CRYSTAL is best described as an "everything but the kitchen sink" Hong Kong actioner, directed by the always outrageous, Wong Jing. Featuring elements of sci-fi, adventure, comedy, and of course kung-fu, MAGIC CRYSTAL remains one the most unique martial arts movies of the 80s, due to its blending of genre elements combined with some truly impressive martial arts choreography.

Reviews for "Experience the Magic: Sony Bravia Magic Remote Review"
1. John - 2 stars - The Sony Bravia Magic Remote was a huge disappointment for me. The remote would frequently disconnect from my TV, making it difficult to navigate and control the channels. It also had a very slow response time, often taking several seconds to register my commands. Additionally, the layout of the remote was confusing, with buttons placed in odd locations that made it hard to find the ones I needed. Overall, I was not impressed with the performance and functionality of this remote.
2. Sarah - 1 star - I have had nothing but problems with the Sony Bravia Magic Remote. It constantly freezes, requiring me to remove the batteries and reset it multiple times. The range is also very limited, as I have to be extremely close to the TV for it to work. The buttons on the remote are small and not well-labeled, making it difficult to navigate and control the TV. I expected better quality and functionality from Sony, and I am extremely disappointed with this product.
3. Michael - 2.5 stars - The Sony Bravia Magic Remote has its flaws. The biggest issue I had was with its durability. The remote started falling apart within a few months of use, with the buttons becoming unresponsive and the casing cracking. The touchpad feature was also not very sensitive, often requiring multiple swipes to register a command. While the remote had some useful features, it fell short in terms of quality and longevity. I would not recommend this remote to others.
