God that full slip is so ugly! Very cheap looking effect to use for the cover, like some cheesy filter in a photo editing app. HDZeta's may be plain, but it is MUCH nicer looking than this one. Everything else looks great though, love the 3d magnet.
Film Arena just pooped all over HDZeta's Ex Machina Honey & Bees Edition and used the Full slip to clean it up.

Probably an odd question but the first 5-6 FAC titles I got did not come with this large white barcode stickers on the back of each box. The last 3 I got in a shipment:Elektra, Exodus, and Commando all had them. I peeled them right off the box slowly and kept them on the outside of the Polybag I put them in. Since they do not leave any sticky residue on the box when you remove them any reason to leave them on there than I guess it is part of the factory seal?
I've got them all but one, AASB, which is why I'm leaning towards leaving them on even if they look better without if they all keeping coming with them.
I usually get 2 copies now so I can open one and keep one sealed or traded one once
 
Just so I get this right, can someone please confirm how much this is shipped to U.S? I calculate $82 for 2 SteelBooks

The steelbook itself is so beautiful that I'm not going to put that lenticular magnet on it or anywhere near it

Dp you really want to start the open vs sealed debate? I'm not sure any topic has been beaten to death more than that one :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:

1612 + 392 = 2004 CZK total select make sure to select the CZK option when paying via PayPal, and you'll have it converted to the dollar amount. Around $82 is correct.

Yes that is correct

They look like FilmArena's internal product code; they are not even valid EAN codes.

I usually take this type of retailer's internal inventory stickers off, as I don't consider them to be part of the product itself.

He, and I'm not sure. I beleive Karel will now end up with a US dollar balance then be charged by PayPal to convert the currency from USD to CZK.
You'll need to speak with @carllenc & @Collector03601 about that, I suggest sending a PM and including them both in it.

$84 by my count

Anyone know the live time tomorrow?

Live time? On FA website?

Yeah that's why I said to make sure to pay in CZK and roughly $82 (when I did the conversion quickly this morning I was using the exchange rates shown on Google, they are often different to PayPal's and the PayPal rates can change during the course of the same day too).
Live time? On FA website?
Yep, if this didn't sell out during during the collectable number pre-order period, it'll be live to pre-order from FilmArena tomorrow at 20:00 Czech local time.
