Got mine today, one of the better lenticular depth I have seen

Good to hear given the concerns about FAC lenticulars. Anxiously awaiting mine.

This is the best FAC release for a long time. I wish they would do more WEA releases instead of the sub-standard WWA stuff they usually produce.

In fairness they seem to be doing more WEA stuff than they used to.

So I got my E1 copy yesterday. Not exactly blown away by it, but it's not bad, either. Once again, however, the print in the steelbook spine is off center:

I really hate this. @Masta Norris
Judging by other owners' pictures, I'm not alone with this issue. I wonder what's up with that and why this can't be sorted out. It seems to be happening pretty often with FA WEAs.

Remember he's only shipping on the weekends.

Great so if it doesn't go this weekend I'm guaranteed to have to wait at least another week

 

[Radagast]

Patience guys (i am also waiting for my E1-E3). I think he does as much as he can

 

[DMD4k]

Maybe, but you'll get it.

Maybe on the weekend. Until then all I can say is it's pretty basic. But the longer I look at it, the better I like it. It's clean and simple. The title has the usual FA style lacquer-embossing, otherwise it's just a (high quality) print. The steelbook (or rather its spine) clashes with the grayish overall color of the slip, though. Colorwise the best match for the steel is the E3 slip, hands down.

I'm not a noob but feel like one. I haven't ever needed to check my shipping tracking status from a Group Buy since HDN change in the ways GBs done maybe 12 months ago

 

[CollectorEmtee]

I received an email from him with a Paypal link on 7/3 saying "paid now shipped today" I paid and sent a request for a tracking number. I never heard back.

Here is the message.

I think you should be made to wait another weekend at least now...maybe another 3 or 4
