I don't necessarily believe this one will make the most cash as it's the newest one for Manta. If people are going to go for this release from Manta that in stands to reason in all likeliness that they'll go for the other two also and they'll make just as much as it'll be in the same price range. Still think it's a misfire releasing it first, if they knew they were going to release this then they could've pushed the releases of the other two to come before it or at the very least adjust the numbering from 13 to whatever it would be to accommodate these being able to sit in chronological order on the shelf, considering this is 13 and Wonder Woman is 11 it's safe to say that isn't going to happen
Yeah I wish they'd have at least changed the numbering :(

I think people who missed out on Wonder Woman are the ones saying how disappointing the release was.

Why? Because your opinion can't possibly wrong, so everyone must be making it up about the poor quality lenti? Sorry mate but that did come across as a bit arrogant.

but the Wonder Woman lentis defo weren't disappointing.

I don't know what you're basing it on but I really do feel it is one of the worst lentis I've ever seen in terms of the 3D image not rotating properly (single lenti only, I haven't seen the double). Don't get me wrong the art choice was great but the lenticular action sucks big time.

I don't see how it's arrogant at all. There seems to be alot more negativity in posts when something is wrong than positive posts when something is right. Just because the lenti may not be up to your standard doesn't make the whole release disappointing. The steelbook is great, the general quality of the slip was great whether you like holofoil or not, the photo book was high quality. So the lenticular isn't Novamedias Edge of Tomorrow, that doesn't make the whole thing suck.

Prime example, GOTG Vol 2 ultimate edition by Blufans, people LOVE this release but the front lenti is crap. 3D effect is good but when the characters in the backgrounds faces get more pixelated the further back they go yet I see no one writing off that whole release because of this? Double standard when it comes to Manta lab though. I suppose the awesome extras and WEA steelbook make blufans releases more worthy even if the lenti isn't up scratch

I've literally seen people who I know for a fact haven't got any of the Manta WW editions that are waiting for HDzetas release put down Mantas efforts, how can you put down anything if you haven't seen it with your own eyes or own it?

It's not arrogance, its common sense
 
And to be honest mate, I think you're talking out of your arse, I just went back about 8 pages in the Wonder Woman thread to when people started getting them and there are barely any posts talking about how poor the lenti is so don't know where you're getting your info. You sure it isn't YOUR opinion that "can't possibly be wrong"?

I was clearly very specifically talking about the lenticular - nothing else, could you quote me where I said "the whole things sucks". You're clearly twisting things because you don't really have a valid argument.

Hearsay. You have no proof that people have being lying about owning an edition. Again, you just seem very angry because people are disagreeing with you.

Petulantly saying I'm "talking out of my arse" just further strengthens my point that you won't allow anyone an opinion, and makes you look childish quite frankly. I merely stated an opinion and the reasoning behind it, there was no need to turn so hostile.

I can't quote you where you said the whole thing sucks no, could you quote all the people who are complaining about the lenticular quality because I can't seem to find them which is strange especially as you specifically stated "everyone" is going on about it.

Can you also tell me where I accused people of "lying about owning an edition". I actually said I know people who for a fact have not purchased a copy of this release who have ordered HDzetas putting Mantas down. I'm not going to bring people into it, its their prerogative but generally speaking it's people who haven't ordered any of the Manta lab editions are the ones knocking it the hardest.

Isn't that what this is all about, my original opinion which was "I think people who missed out on Wonder Woman are the ones saying how disappointing the release was" which is what you felt the need to come out of nowhere and challenge me on? Then you say i'm not happy when other people have an opinion different to my own? Hypocrite much?

I said you were talking out of your arse because you were. I went and looked at the relevant threads for the statements you make and could find minimal evidence of what you claimed. You can get on your high horse because you didn't agree with what turn of phrase I used but the fact remains "everyone" isn't going on about a "poor quality lenti".

Finally, i'm sorry to say you have angered or annoyed me at all. My original statement stands, nothing you've said has changed my opinion. You cannot disprove the point i'm making just like you cannot prove your own point, I looked into it myself and couldn't prove it lol.

Ok, I think we should both calm down a bit and move on, what with it being Christmas and all that. I apologize if I inflamed the situation, it just came across that you were dismissing people's genuine disappointment in the WW lenti but I probably should have just let it go. If you're happy with it then that's great.

I have Manta Wonder Woman single lenti and it is DISAPPOINTING
 
why does the single lenti edition in the group buy says sold out with 2 sold?

The group buy order has to be submitted sometime before the actual sale on the website. So if only 2 orders were placed for that edition, then it is closed. This way group buy orders are set aside from stock for the web sale.

Having a hard time picking between the lenti and double lenti although leaning towards the double lenti
 
Even more excited for this now!! That rear steel artwork isn't really that bad! It's nice to have the bad guy on the rear! And doesn't look too "out of place"
