Would be nice, if you have the time, dont own any Eureka releases yet. Is the box quality like the typical Arrow Limited Editions?
It's a very sturdy box, like usual Arrow limited editions.

As the photos show, it is, unfortunately, smaller than the Volume 1 boxset, it uses 1 case with 3 disc holders as opposed to volume 1's 3 separate cases, probably to save money. But just as great as volume 1.

I tried uploading the rest of my photos showing the interior, but I was told they were too big to upload.

Thank you very much for the pics. Nice box indeed and looks like the Arrow Edition. I think I will grab this one. Is Volume 1 hard to source since I cannot find any on Zavvi etc?

Volume 1 came out in 2017, I think, so it's out of stock, you should still be able to find the regular version.

Here:

I'm surprised volume 3 is coming out so quickly after 2 considering the wait we had originally.

Thanks, may be an option if I cannot find it for a good price on ebay and co.
