[@GaryOgborn]

I was gifted the mandarin superstar book for Christmas, after reading the new dragon book. Both great books, that I couldn’t put down and have told all my friends at work about (whether they wanted me to or not 😂)

[@StripeyR]

Awesome, mate 😆 Kepp on telling them at work. All the best, cheers 👍

[@tredor73]

Thanks Stripey Rambles, I was able to order the BLR book last week.

[@StripeyR]

Excellent, mate. I'm happy you've got a copy coming 😉 Cheers 👍

[@stephenconn8661]

Mandarin Superstar, one of the best books I've read on Bruce, however, anything Steve and Darren do is usually top class! Hope your doing well pal 👍

[@StripeyR]

Agreed, mate. Thank you, i'm doing very well. i hope all is well with you 👍

[@paulmahon4410]

Hi Stripey my name is Paul Mahon from Ireland I ordered Bruce Lee review book after watching your thoughts on it.its still available mine has shipped already.Love your channel keep up the good work mate

[@StripeyR]

Hi bud, Thank you. I think you'll enjoy the Cream of BLR, it's packed, mate. Cheers 👍

[@ericstew5086]

Great book

[@BoxingFightsByGaryWilson]

No egg worry not Stripey, what exciting is happening this year? Suspense is overbearing🤣

[@StripeyR]

😉Cheers Pal 👍

[@karlplayford7345]

I've read so many Bruce Lee books over the years but a lot of information in Mandarin Superstar and Intercepting Fist was new to me. SK and DC really went into the microscope with their research. I think it was Mandarin Superstar that stated Bruce had cracked a rib or two around the Longstreet time period. Do you know how he did it? I did hear of a raunchy rumour involving Linda (or perhaps another of his lady friends)? Can't wait for the softback of Dragon to come out. Keep up the great content. All the best.

[@StripeyR]

Thank you, mate. The books are a revelation and jam packed with info. I'll find out how Bruce cracked his rib (I can't remember) Steve will know 😉 Cheers Pal 👍

[@karlplayford7345]

@StripeyR lovely job thanks mate.

[@David-v4y5k]

Wow amazing Stripey for that book. Great video as always. Always look forward to your rambles mate. Great information as always. Thanks and take care always Stripey cheers Stripey 😁

[@Punisher6654]

Amazing book.

[@StripeyR]

It is indeed, mate. Cheers 👍

[@30plusfitnesstv]

WOW!!! You've got the full set now Stripey. Achievement Unlocked. Steve is a very generous guy indeed. Sadly I don't think I'll be getting the full set anytime soon. My BLR book is on the way. Thanks for the head up. Very intrigued by this new Bruce Lee news. Hopefully we will not have to wait that long to find out 🤞

[@StripeyR]

Achievement Unlocked (luv it) 😉 I'm glad you're BLR book is on it's way, mate. As for the Bruce news, as soon as things are confirmed and in place, I'll be announcing, mate. Cheers Pal 👍

[@norm81]

Got the mandarin superstar and intercepting fist books for Christmas. I didn't expect them to be so heavy! Looking forward to reading them.

[@StripeyR]

They're both amazing, mate. I think you're going to learn a lot of stuff you didn't know. Enjoy 👍

[@mig1017]

That display behind you is rapidly growing. Top notch book. Extremely collectable. 🤤

[@StripeyR]

It is indeed, my friend. I'm gonna need another shelf the way things are going. Thanks Pal 👍

[@billstacy7727]

Thanks again so much Stripey for bringing our attention to The Cream of BLR. Mine has shipped.

[@StripeyR]

Awesome, mate. I think you're going to love it (I do) 😉 Cheers Pal 👍

[@billstacy7727]

@StripeyR 👍

[@henryfong3471]

Hard to be a fan of many stars from Elvis , Bruce Lee , Jackie Chan collector to comics and vinyl to comics. Book is fantastic. Steve did another Elvis gesture and another book

[@Thehumblecollectoruk]

You a very lucky strippy.and steve a genoures man .. one day i be able pick up soft covers .take care .col

[@possessorofmine]

Great video like always Stripey. Have been on a spree of watching your videos very fun! Gave the last 20 minutes of ETD a rewatch on the trusty 2013 Blu Ray today, and something, maybe the Bruce Lee fan in me captivated me and said "I should watch hours of Stripey 's rambles". Lol.

[@StripeyR]

😉Thanks Pal 👍🏻

[@Luke63Ultra]

Yeahhhh it finally came Friday the (The Cream Of Bruce Lee Review Book) I ordered. I'd been reading the first few pages Saturday morning and I can tell you it's fantastic, I love it to bits 😍. Well written in a form that's easy to understand and exciting and makes you want to keep reading on. Surprisingly as well it has the latest update stuff regarding the Bruce Lee DVD's etc. I compared the interviews to that of the (Bruce Lee Conversations Book) and no they look different which is good. 🙂 Congratulations on receiving (The Mandarin Superstar Hardback version). What a lovely new year's gift from Steve, cherishing the moment, brilliant. The book looks amazing. I was thinking I'll have to invest sometime say for like my birthday as a treat and get both books in softback. I'd love to read and need to get (The Making Of Enter The Dragon Book). 😁 Looking forward to the new Bruce Lee news. Cheers mate 👍👍🏻

[@StripeyR]

@Luke63Ultra hi mate, I'm chuffed you've received your BLR book. It's a gem 😀 The Mandarin Superstar, Intercepting Fist, and Bruce Lee Dragon are amazing. All Steve Kerridge books are tops 👌 Thanks pal 👍🏻

[@Luke63Ultra]

Thanks dude 😃👍👌🏻

[@leesiuleung1816]

Top notch mate, you always have the best items, cheers!

[@StripeyR]

Thank you, bud. the collection is getting there 😉 Cheers 👍

[@wayne5508]

Another fantastic gift. I have the softback, too, but that hardback is brilliant. If you are going to do something, then you may as well do it to the highest standard, and that's what Steve Kerridge's books are. Great stuff Stripey👍🏻👍🏻

[@StripeyR]

Thanks, Pal. I'm chuffed to bits to have these in the collection 😃they are quality. I hope all is well with you, mate 👍🏻

[@wayne5508]

@StripeyR All good, thanks, mate 👍🏻👍🏻

[@topcats78]

Great to have such a rare book Stripey mate. And anything by Steve kerridge is worth owning. When it comes to research and hard work Steve and Darren go the full mile and more. His information is legit and not taken from other peoples works. Which, sad to say, is the case with a minority of so called Bruce lee historians. With endorsements from the Bruce Lee estate you know its genuine research and approved information. The hardback photos pop a lot more than the softback version but both versions are worth everything to a Bruce Lee fan and collector.

[@reload5082]

What an amazing gift, Steve makes amazing books off the top of my head I think I have 2.

[@StripeyR]

Indeed, mate. I'm chuffed to bits. I hope all is well with you guys Cheers👍🏻

[@peterreynolds141]

I have the soft back version it's a fantastic book I missed out on the hardback edition but I did get the awesome hardback the intercepting fist Steve's books are a must have great gift mate .cool vid as usual stripey all the best Pete

[@StripeyR]

Thank you, mate. It was very kind of Steve. I've been very lucky lad indeed. I hope all is well with you brother 👍

[@eddietours3728]

Awesome

[@eliasbosch4132]

Stripey, so happy for you brother! Those books by Steve, Darren and David are ALWAYS top notch. I do have all 3 books and love the fact that I am able to have them in Hardback editions. I've got a few too many books that I have to read still and at some point I will get to them, but when I see how thick they are it scares me lol. Keep the vlogs coming and any prayers from those watching with what is going on out here with the fires will be greatly appreciated 🙏🙏🙏

[@StripeyR]

Hi, mate. Firstly, my prayers are with everyone effected by the terrible fires in L.A. 🙏 The Bruce Lee Forever books are amazing, I feel blessed to own them too. I sometimes get intimidated by the amount of reading I have to do, to catch up, but then I think, I'll get round to it, and when I do, I'll enjoy it. 😉 Thanks my friend, stay safe 🙏

[@BruceLeeArt]

Hi Stripey, great video as always and so so generous of Steve😊 I have both in hardback, they are incredible works of art, just phenomenal. The work that Steve and Darren put into them must have been immense! I haven't read 'Dragon' yet as I have been busy but, like you, I intend to buy the softback, as I have with IF and MS to keep the others safe and pristine 😊 I can see how chuffed you are with the book and rightly so, it's brilliant. Take care and have a great weekend 😊✌️

[@StripeyR]

Hello, Elaine, Thank you. Steve was very kind to complete the hardbacks in my collection (I honestly didn't think i'd get this one) These gems are worth keeping safe and in mint condition (true collectors pieces) I hope all is well with you 😉 Cheers 👍

[@BruceLeeArt]

@@StripeyR Thank you Stripey, yes all well 😊👍 Steve is such a genuine chap though I've never met him. Take care x

Greeting, my friend 👍

[@cheekster777]

Good morning Stripey.

[@StripeyR]

Morning, mate. I hope all is well with you 👍🏻

[@MrWrangler62]

Hi Stripey, let's have a ramble about the upcoming footage of Bruce in Enter filmed by John Saxon?. I have looked everywhere to find a picture of John holding a super 8 mm camera nothing And threw the years John Saxon has never mentioned it once in all the interviews he did both tv and editorial. So I think this could be Anna Capris footage she said she had about 8 rolls of film, which adds up to about 25 mins. We only got to under 5 minutes . What do you think.

[@montyjl]

Hey ,Mr Wrangler,you forget your friend down under? Nice video Stripey.

[@StripeyR]

Hey, bud. There's very little known about what's happening with the Bamboo & Dragons at the moment. I know there a book and documentary in the works. John did films some stuff on the set, but how much? I don't know. I'd like to know who has the original Ahna Capri footage she filmed & is it any longer that what we've seen. I think there's possibly more that's not been unearthed yet (I like to think so anyway) Cheers 👍

[@StripeyR]

@@montyjl Thank you 👍

The Mandarin Superstar book that SK published in hardcover, which was in charge of the layout and quality, is a pretty good book, a book worth buying, another thing is the paperback., The soft cover that Amazon produced and sold is worthless, bad paper, bad binding. We keep calling anything weird, but hey, I do that too.

[@30plusfitnesstv]

The print quality of the softback is obviously not up to the standards of the hardback. But to say it is worthless is total nonsense. The information contained in the book is worth every penny I paid for it. And it sits proudly on my bookshelf.

@30plusfitnesstv Nobody talks about the information, the information is very clear, I talk about the photos having poor quality and the book having poor quality, it is not SK's fault, it is Amazon's fault, If you are happy with your low quality book that is fine by me, photos are not always important, for me they are, for others they are not.

[@StripeyR]

I was very happy with my Mandarin Superstar book, mate, but the hardback quality is undeniable. I feel very lucky to have these gems 👍

[@30plusfitnesstv]

The information contained in the book is far more important to me. The picture quality is fine. I've seen much worse over the years believe me.

@@StripeyR If it is true, it is a good book. From the trilogy of books, this one and the other two are good.

[@peterad]

Nice one Stripey ! All your efforts to the Bruce Lee community and keeping his name alive means you deserve nice surprises such as this , keep it up mate , btw…. Search KZbin for Bobo the make up artist - she transformed herself into 10 superstars…. Scroll to 2 mins 26 and be amazed! Actually the short video is amazing but especially a particular one 👍

[@StripeyR]

Thank you, my friend. I checked out Bebo, WOW AMAZING make up artist. i was blown away Cheers 👍

[@digitadigita3578]

Hi, Does anyone know why some are able to write books about Bruce Lee, with his photos, without being sued? What about AI generated images? Thanks.

[@StripeyR]

I have no idea, mate, I know some books are endorsed by the Bruce lee estate. As for A.I. images, I have no idea. Cheers 👍

[@badkarmaonezero]

Morning Stripey! Just received an email telling me my copy of the Cream of BLR is on the way! Is there any more word on the Making of the Big Boss softback? I missed out on the hardback while buying the rest of Steve and Darren's books I understand some of the older books were Ltd edition, but I wish some of the others that are sold out would get a reissue! Have a great weekend mate! Mark

[@StripeyR]

Morning, mate. I'm glad you're Cream of BLR is on its way (ya gonna live it) I know Steve was working on the softback of The Making of The Big Boss. I'll get back to you on that one. I missed out on a few Ltd Editions too, mate. I did ask Steve in our chat on youtube if he'd release these again, but alas, there not. Shame, I'd like the complete collection, too. Cheers pal 👍🏻

[@badkarmaonezero]

Cheers mate! ​@@StripeyR

[@Victor-gi3dy]

Hey my friend this is probably a Dumb question but i know Bruce's Real voice in used in Enter The Dragon BUT his other films are of course DUBBED in English so is he REALLY speaking Mandarin or Chinese ? I've Always been confused about that 😮 thanks 😊

[@MrOliverK]

Pretty sure Mandarin IS Chinese. But anyways if Stripey doesn't mention this in his answer Lee dubbed some English speaking characters in Way of Dragon and Fist of Fury

[@Thehumblecollectoruk]

Not sure how much dragon book worth .some one selling for 699.99 on ebay .that seems alit?

[@GrahamLeggett-w3l]

Morning stripey this is off subject but do have any new info on the new ang lee Bruce lee biopic

[@StripeyR]

Morning, mate. I've heard nothing yet (unfortunatly) As soon as I do, you guys will hear about it. Cheers 👍

[@AwildaRodriguez-cm8yl]

Sir I really don't know about this amazing books, however I will like for you to hear my story about how Master Bruce Lee died 😢 💔 he was murder 😢 and I saw how he died in a edition showing 😢 how he was murder,it's hard for me because I was 17 years old 😢 when I saw the edition that was put on a copy of the filming of enter the dragon when the filming is finished the eddition comes out Sir and I will like to explain to you and maybe someday they will write the truth 💔

[@MarcAntomattei]

Second! 😂

[@StripeyR]

😂😅

[@mrclarenceboddicker6173]

The Bruce Lee shop in Japan has 3 Mandarin Superstar and 2 Intercepting Fist Hardcover books in stock. I ordered The Intercepting Fist hardcover so it only has 2 in stock now. My perseverance had paid off, I had been looking for a Hardcover of Bruce Lee: The Intercepting Fist for such a long time. It means that I will now have all 3 hardcovers for Mandarin Superstar, Intercepting Fist & Dragon The Ultimate Limited Edition. It took me a while to figure out how to order and what to click as the website is in Japanese. Once you place your order, the owner will email you a payment link. Good luck.

[@StripeyR]

Thanks for sharing this, mate. That's really interesting. Cheers👍🏻
