The shimmer is begging for a bit of foil!

That's a euphemism I'm unfamiliar with...

 

[Bungral]

Think I’ll grab A and B. Can’t decide between them.

Above 150 eur to EU means a much higher impact on customs. Therefore I may skip the OC. FS B is my favourite.

As we did with Lone Survivor, Many EU customers asked for a low Value to be put on the shipping label, this of course would then be your responsibility if there are extra charges, but the option is there.

Thanks for the info. And this makes a change

I think the V2 looks a lot better personally

I was going to note this. Direct orders are your call Dan. I'll have to check and confirm for GB copies. It depends with whom the shipping responsibility lies. Losses due to low value shipments can't fall to the host or the forum. Just something to consider.

Yes this was referencing Direct orders, GB hosts will have there own terms.
Direct if you leave a message when ordering advising low cost i can accommodate this, again its the buyers responsibility from there on.

so i reckon everything will be shipped out with extra insurance? otherwise i dont see what difference it would make

Essentially, yes. Assuming the forum is fine with it, and I'm shipping, I could in theory ship with low value, but it has to be at the buyer's risk to only be covered to X value. Everything else would be fully insured to order value.

 

[Jamon-Jamon]

As curiosity, will be the GB orders shipped from UK? Thanks

Yes. Astro is UK based, as am I. I do have other shipping points, but if you're European, it's unlikely they'll be cost effective.

Any option for direct shipping on slips or will everything be hub shipping for the group buy here?

 

[Steelflex]

Trying to figure out if I should do a group buy for this or just order from the site next week. Is ordering from the site a smooth process or am I going to be refreshing for 20 minutes?

 

[psychoscot]

Was really looking forward to this, but no Blu-ray = instant pass!

 

[Patr0n]

.just another update. I submitted two versions of XLB as I couldn't decide on the rear. The intention was to spot gloss the entire fence grates which I think will look great in hand.

Here's V2 , any feedback between the two would be great.

Every other edition stays as is.

Imo V2 is way better and harmonises well with the front.

Edit:// Still not an easy decision, the V1 art could end up looking stunning as well and as someone else pointed out, it seems to be a clearer image.

When the f*** is the pre order!?

Careful, or we’ll have to drop a new track called
Comment Section Riot’ just for you

 

[Pieta]

Guess we’ll dedicate the encore to you

On the other hand....

Everything will be also available direct, just in small quantities, there are opportunities to buy direct for everyone.

All current up to date info can be found on my FB page and insta.

Not sure I'm allowed to link outside socials here, @samdavies will be updating the thread shortly with all info.

Since Blu-ray is now considered the older format and including it would add to production costs, the decision was made to exclude it in order to keep the price point where it is.
