Welcome! This FAQ answers your most common questions about the Aliens Expanded 2-Disc Collector’s Edition and 1-Disc Upgrade. If your question isn’t answered here, feel free to reach out at support@creatorvc.com.
Why did you develop this Collector’s Edition?
The Aliens Expanded Collector’s Edition was never part of the original plan. In fact, the idea to release a second disc packed with bonus content only came months after the initial launch, when we began hearing from backers who were hungry for even more.
This edition exists entirely because of our community. We received an outpouring of support and curiosity about the extended interviews and behind-the-scenes material that didn’t make it into the original documentary. After we sent out a detailed survey to our backers, the results were clear: you wanted more content, more depth, and a more complete physical edition to proudly display.
Not only did our backers request the content—we actually worked with them to determine what should be included and what the price point should be. The final price reflects the feedback we received through that survey, ensuring we could deliver an upgraded, collector-worthy product without cutting corners or compromising quality.
We’re proud that this version was built hand-in-hand with the fans, and we believe it’s the most definitive version of Aliens Expanded ever produced.
Please note:
The Blu-ray is Factory Pressed and region free and will play on Blu-ray players worldwide.
English subtitles are included on the second disc only, which contains the extended interviews and theatrical cut.

How much is shipping?
Shipping is now charged at checkout, rather than later during fulfillment. This gives you complete clarity and ensures your shipping cost is locked in at the time of purchase.
Estimated shipping costs:
$14 for USA orders
$22 for international orders
We charge at cost—we do not make any profit on shipping.
When will I receive my copy?
This is a made-to-order product, with shipping expected to start at the end of July 2025. You’ll receive an email with tracking information once your order ships.
Manufacturing, Shipping & Customs Information
All copies of the Aliens Expanded Collector’s Edition—including the 2-disc set and the 1-disc upgrade—are being manufactured and shipped from California, USA by our long-standing and trusted fulfillment partner. We’ve worked with them for years to ensure factory-pressed, high-quality, region-free Blu-rays that meet the highest industry standards.
International Customers, Please Note:
While shipping costs are charged at checkout, tariffs, customs duties, VAT, or import taxes are not included in that price. These charges are determined by your country’s customs agency and are entirely out of our control.
We understand that unexpected customs fees can be frustrating, so here’s what we’re doing to help:
Your package will be declared using a low-value shipping code.
This approach significantly reduces the likelihood of incurring additional customs charges in most regions.
However, if your country does apply any additional fees upon delivery, these are your responsibility as the recipient.
If you’re unsure about your local import rules, we recommend checking with your country’s customs office for details.
