I'm crazy about a lenticular edition but I had no chance, please I need a unit

Get what you want.

 

[Starling]

its 3500 copies milited not 3000,OP with some wrong,the boxset and 1/4 slipcase already sold out,but the lenti and full slip still left some unpaid copy,we will sell them on webstore.

Are these extra copies also numbered, because that means if someone already has 0176 of 0500 as example, what numbers with these additional ones get?

I feel incredibly uncomfortable in ordering through HDZeta if I'm told that these are limited to 3,000, yet an extra 500 can then simply be made available and say it was wrong.

How can the Op be wrong that you wrote?

What assurances are there that this will not happen again regarding HDZeta Exclusives?

the SPR OP poster was not me,so i cant fix that.
sorry again for this mistake.

Some people really get their panties in a bunch over the numbers of the limited editions.

Regarding the lenticular. @megadona - get the lenticular if that is what you want. The lenticular card is not attached to the slipcase so if you don't like it no harm done. I'll post some photos in the morning...

 

[digitalbabe]

The webstore still testing,would be open at next month 15th,you can register and test your credit card at now.
here the test link:http://shop.hdzeta.com/index.php?ma...ducts_id=166&zenid=9rae3sm9gqtde1mfogpr2le3o4

Thanks for the update, Xin!

I do if I am told this Gladiator Exclusive from HDzeta is a 3000 print run. Then 6 months later the company says OOPS we found exactly 500 extra copies laying around right when our brand new website is about to go live. Seems awfully convenient because the rest of there exclusives are OOP I would assume? This could be an honest mistake but I certainly don't like hearing about it

Print runs matter, if your a collector that does not care about the current resale value of SBs you own then I guess print runs don't concern you. But for anyone who sells or trades SBs if there are more copies floating around it is going to be more difficult to find someone who doesn't have a copy and you then will get less value for it in a sale or trade.

 

[charlie1533pr]

Yeah... 500 SPR happy collectors! But others.....

Maybe a 1/4 slip Gladiator in the store?

 

[NoDingsNoScratches]

Hey, @Wreck

Seeing as how we pulled off those un-slightly exclusive stickers From our copies, would you consider sticking the new beautiful exclusive sticker on them?

@wxlinkswd , for the folks that prefer the new sticker, is there anyway we could purchase a few to sticker on our Gladiator steels? I would be happy to pay for a set of stickers if possible.

My heart bleeds for you

 

[Gadget]

I'm with StifflersDad. Wow there are some beyond ultra hardcore steelbook/numbered card/sticker/completest people here.

As promised some photos of the lenticular edition...(lenticular, front and back of slip, booklet, and the steelbook itself)

 

[NoDingsNoScratches]

Wow there are some beyond ultra hardcore steelbook/numbered card/sticker/completest people here.

You just noticed that?

 

[Gadget]

I know, funny isn't it. I thought people were joking when they said they must have number xxx of the run.

 

[tomaphobia]

Is this still actually available or did it sell out?

 

[Gadget]

@tomaphobia - if you look back a couple of pages, wxlinkswd said that the box set (tripack) and 1/4 slip are sold out; however there are some lenticular and full slip Gladiator steelbooks that have not been paid for and these will be sold on their webstore when it goes live.

If there's an HDZeta retailer thread I'd suggest subscribing to it. I would have thought any remaining steelbooks would sell very quickly.

 

[nicblue]

@NoDingsNoScratches I hope so man. I really want some of those awesome stickers..

 

[Gadget]

What stickers are these?

You could always go to vistaprint or zazzle...

 

[schnauzithomas]

Hi
Does anyone know, are at the TriPak that are there also welded separately 3 Steel Books and also a limitation number? Or are open in the package?
Would be great wen me that someone could say.
Thomas

 

[IRON MAN]

@schnauzithomas Each steelbook is sealed separately inside the tri-pack.
