You mean that means they shipped using DHL due to the label color choice? Of course this is cargo and not Express, but I guess DHL does cargo as well.
(I don't think the label color is something the sender chooses..)

The labels are inside the plastic wrap. Kind of odd for the shipper to take off the wrap, put labels all around the package and then wrap it back up.
The obvious alternative is of course that they're Kodak packaging labels.

Well, Elektra is Aerocolor IV, which has no other versions. I'd say this new Flic Film is most likely whatever Lomography 400 is (Ultramax is the most common opinion).

I have no doubt that Like Aurora, Dave Marshall has had to swear on all the OIL in Alberta that he will not say what it is. (besides Film)

If Alaris doesn't wake up... we will all need to learn new names of Kodak films.

Unless they've changed the Lomography 400 film recently, it is not Ultramax. It is more likely to be very close to 90s Kodacolor...the non-Gold stuff.

Kodak Alaris owns the exclusive right to market and distribute Kodak branded still film.
I expect that Eastman Kodak isn't allowed to rebrand or sell to re-branders still film products that are otherwise identical to the films that Kodak Alaris markets and distributes.
Otherwise, Eastman Kodak is happy to make and sell the film you want from them.

If Fuji 200 vs. Gold 200 qualifies as different enough, then I'd be more than happy to buy Flic Rectal 100 instead of Kodak Ektar 100, even if it is only one or two EUR cheaper.
