Yes, but if it becomes a repeat scenario with all their releases, then I would hope they will correct something in their processes/supply chain....no point in announcing dates if they are regularly missed. Again, before I receive a barrage of criticism and Blufans comparisons, just want to clarify I am an FA and Blufans supporter, and just hope that FA won't pick up on the BF bad habits we all know so well!! I think NovaMedia and Kimchi have been pretty good in meeting their timelines....

Well, unlike Blufans they DO have a good excuse as their schedule is very full indeed; and no matter the delay, at least FA do not have rip off prices a la Blufans & HDz, and haven't let us down yet on quality.
 
So far Filmarena prices have been reasonable, but two new FAC titles seemed to cost a bit more, Terminator Genisys 899 czk and Jurassic World 799 czk. It's still a good price without a doubt, considering the quality we get. I just hope the prices stay at this level and won't rise too much.
 
GB's are kinda new to me, so could anyone explain what a Collectible number is?

Thanks :)

A collectible number is the number Film Arena assigns you once you've been approved for one. For example if your number is 1109 and the print run is out of 2000, then you are given the option to purchase that edition before pre-orders open up to the general public. But if the print run is out of 500 then you're out of luck and will have to hope that those who have collectible number 1-500 didn't buy them all. If not then you can try and snatch one up when pre-orders go live.

In terms of the GB, I belive Karl has been sending those who join his GB's regularly the same number. So if you've received a numbered item from his GB before then that will most likely be your collectible number. I'd PM @carllenc or @Collector03601 to be 100% sure though. Hope that helps

I'm wondering I got the invoice for the lenti. However I'm signed up for the full slip and wondering if anyone got a separate invoice for that yet?
 
Recieved my invoice for the full slip. Well done @carllenc for the new and improved parimeters for the invoice, I think & hope this helps you out so you are not getting bogged down by the constant changes people are requesting in these GBs. Should definitely smooth the process for you.:thumbs:

Will be making payment very shortly.

I have the same thing, ordered the halfslip and fullslip and only got one invoice (halfslip). But I think he made it clear that you only receive one invoice and I believe he meant that you can combine payment of both editions, just mention it in the subject in your paypal booking that you pay for both and mention both listing numbers.

If I'm wrong please make that clear, thanks :)

I ordered all 3 and received invoices for Lenti and Half. I sent a query asking about the Full Slip lenti because I was expecting another one

What are all these GB related posts doing in the release thread ;)

Karel has provided very detailed instructions with the invoices; separate invoices and payments for "Birdman HALF" and "Birdman Lenticular".

He hasn't yet sent out the invoices for the Birdman full slip, but no doubt those will be forthcoming when he has the chance to prepare them. No need to worry :thumbs:
