Both slips are awesome...The lenti version is my winner

 

[Hamill82]

They look awesome
What protective sleeves do you use? Thx

From steelbook central. Half slip had a special size, it's quite tall as can be seen from the picture and I didn't have exactly perfect case for it, so I used SCF2, it left some space in it, but I added those extra photos to it also.

The fullslip is very awesome. Super glad I jumped on this gb before it was too late. I think it's one of my favorite full slips in my collection, on par with PA quality imo. The spot gloss steelbook is sweet. I love matte+spot gloss, just overall happy about this release lol.

Gonna watch it for the first time this weekend

Hoping mine arrives today along with M:I5. Was hoping it would've arrived a little earlier as my parcels from Karel are normally here within a few days

 

[InAFalsetto]

Got mine today. Thank you @carllenc Very impressed with the spot glossing, embossing / debossing and all round package.The puzzle is a great collectors item to go along with the steelbook ... very nice !

I opened the Lenticular slip as it's the first one FA have done. Plus I like the fact the slip is blue and the steel is red. It adds variation to the color pallette.

Received bot of my copies (half and fullslip) in perfect state!

Big thanks to the big organisation and effort put into this operation

 

[Scarface]

I only got round to watching this after the GB finished so I missed out on that one but I really enjoyed this movie, it was much better than I had expected it to be, picked up the full slip and its one of my favourite FAC releases so far, love the Lenticular magnet too, overall very pleased with it

 

[Blu-devil]

My copy has just shipped, along with Looper and Jurassic World. Cannot wait to get my hands on them.
Thanks Karel.

Wow, this looks amazing. Unfortunately I missed it...

 

[goufcustom]

I really really like the disc art, well done again FA...

 

[Mickle_89]

There they are, very happy

Did you use SCF2 for your Lenti slip @Hamill82? I attempted to use one today but thought it was maybe a bit too snug for this beefier edition... ?

Yes I did, for now. I'm really looking forward to get the bigger ones from steelbook central. Birdman lenti is one of the biggest Filmarena packages and to be able to use SCF2 can be a bit tricky. You need to fold it few times in certain way and leave one or two corners just a bit open, it won't fully close with SCF2. There are few other Filmarena packages which are thick and not 100% suitable with SCF2.

Yes, me too... Very much looking forward to the release of the SCF4 slips!

Saying that, I've been able to safely store every Film Arena release I own in an SCF2 but like you said, Birdman Lenti is one of their "fattest" editions to date! (A bit like the half-slip is awkward to protect too )

 

[Dano]

Love my Birdman steels. Thanks @carllenc !

 

[Blu-devil]

This was a blind buy for me and I really liked it. I wasn't disappointed at all.
The FA package was top notch, the whole thing weighed a ton, definitely worth it.
