Just got mine in the mail today #135/500 and they are AWESOME, but I would have to agree with @NoDingsNoScratches that the Lenti is disappointing( it just seems to blurry and the transition is not very good at all). It would have been nice to see the free case wrapped in bubble wrap not just put on the side of the box so it could be easily damaged(mine was lucky and didn't have any damage)

Just got my Tripack today and here are some live pics to share

Full slip is my favourite for sure. Got #222!

And after all the back and forth, many thanks in the end to @wxlinkswd and @n3wk1d

I just home to find mine waiting for me. Yay! I'm very happy with the whole tripack, it is awesome. I am somewhat disappointed in the freebie that was just sort of set in the box. Behind the big ugly sticker was a big ugly dent. I mean yeah it's a freebie but even one layer of bubble wrap could have prevented it and made the freebie worth while. Oh well at least the tripack is ok. Wheew!

 

[HUBMUSWELL]

Maybe the freebie was dented on purpose...

 

[Lone Crusader]

@HUBMUSWELL So were you just being sarcastic and funny or implying something along the lines of "if it's dented it can't be resold for a decent amount"? I really doubt that HDZeta would do that IMO simply for the fact that their trying to build a client base (fans and followers) for future releases. Just saying.

I've heard of another dented freebie. Just saying

Maybe they just wanted to give us a battle-damaged gladiator.

Got my tri-pack today! My empty case looks to be in good conditoin, too. There's enough pics on here, so I won't bother posting more, but this thing is a beauty!

 

[IRON MAN]

Hey folks, to those who missed @wxlinkswd 's post, here's why the freebie was not packed, thanks.

Let me explain why we didnt pack the gift empty case.
This is Camouflage for protection the Tripack,when the customs open the package,they see and take the unpack case at first,and the not for sale sticker on the case,so they will think its really gift package and its low vaule,so they will not check more,the tripack safely throught the customs,if we pack them very well, they will take the triapck first,and open it,We usually think of large or heavy things are more valuable,and the customs as well.

Damaged empty case+perfect boxset
Damaged or opened boxset+perfect gift emptycase
which is better??

Boxset was sold out,replacement it need send back to china,and the emptycase still left many extras at hub leader,do you understand my means?
If your gift empty case was damaged and you cant accept,just pm me and provide the pics is ok,i'll tell hub leader send an extra to you.its very easy.

They way the box was packed, 3 sides were protected by large bubble packing. The 4th side where the freebie was placed was just plain cardboard. The tripack was wrapped in multiple layers of normal bubble wrap. I can possibly understand the freebie not being wrapped as per the tripack, but to leave the 4th side bare with no protection at all, for me, is not acceptable. I don't buy the excuse of camouflage as a reason for leaving the exposed SB against an unprotected side. The 4th side could have been lined with the large bubble packing and the SB left unwrapped.

 

[Hooch]

@sharanium So you peeled off the big stickers on your steels?

 

[renanbg]

Nothing for Asia members yet. I'm getting worried.
