On September 14, 2026, 88 Films is releasing a Blu-ray (Region B) collection that will include both 1986’s Armour of God and 1991’s Armour of God II: Operation Condor. This edition appears to be a more affordable, swag-less alternative to 88 Films’ 4K Ultra HD releases.
What’s better than a good Jackie Chan film? Why, TWO good Jackie Chan films, of course – and these two are a pair of his best.
Both showcase on of his most popular characters, the ‘Asian Hawk’, a two-fisted archaeologist who tracks down priceless relics. In Armour of God, he’s looking for religious artefacts while battling an evil cult bent on global destruction.
The character returned for an even bigger follow-up, Operation Condor: this time he’s in the Sahara on the hunt for Nazi gold – and hoping that the bad dudes don’t find it first!
Crammed with outstanding action and life endangering stunt-work, the two films find Jackie at the very peak of his powers – and they make an essential double bill.
