I'm slightly confused...Is this a Pan Asia release as Kimchi has this listed as a Robo Steel Case what's this?

HK & KR already comfirmed robo steelcase not steelbook made by scanavo

I'm very suspicious TW godfather could be steelbook

I recommemd not to buy until it has been confirmed as steelbook release

They deliver a 50 ft transformer to your door!!! That's why EMS shipping is so expensive....

Try fitting that into a protective slip case and displaying it on your shelf....

JSDVD has had stuff listed as steelbook before and then contacted me if I wanted it so I will say this is the same as Korea.

 

[teddyjun]

Korean version was changed from robo steel case to futurepak(metalpak). Maybe, Taiwan version will be changed metalpak. damn!

 

[Choi Chungkwon]

Here is actual info about future pack

The manufacturing quality on the new 'Futurepaks' seems a bit better than the old metalpaks (fewer scratches and defects), and the Tsutaya wave from Japan were quite nice. The only thing I can't get past personally is that horrible spine. And they still feel a lot flimsier and cheaper than steelbooks.

Just got a reply from JSDVD about this and it's unfortunatley a Metal Box and not a steelbook, I think I'm going keep my paid preorder but not very happy about the update though and really hope the slip makes up for it somehow

Link updated on JSDVD to reflect that too..

@....DJ

I'm billing you for getting me to order a Metalpak .....

How much was it again , $200 US....

Cancelled my order....So no problem...

 

[The Rainmaker]

Oh great! I'm so glad I waited. The 'Futurepaks' ain't worth a **** and this was $121

An easy pass for me

Let's hope TW comes up with a similar looking steelbook in near future, then we'll be talking

I'm going to wait for actual pictures then decide, yes I really dislike Metal Boxes (Futurepaks or whateva the hell they called) but after-all it's all about the slip too so will wait and see then decide

Well hope it does not get replaced with these metal things instead... but again will wait it out

Yeah rub it in bud

Will leave it to the mods to the the rest

 

[DJHilalo]

Still undecided and pending shipping invoice payment from my end but I'm kinda liking it more especially that the slip covers the ugly spine...
