I missed this steel with first distribution, i'm happy to have the chance to take it in a new restyle...i can't understand disappointing comments.

That's good for you

But for some of us...This...

Totally agree! What is the point of this except trying to clear out dead stock by adding a slip and some art cards.....Not what I expect from Kimchi.

 

[Apinamakina]

Since this steelbook won't be having any 3D version, why will it have a lenticular slip? Adding lenticular slipcover to steelbooks are starting to feel like marketing gimmicks to me.

But as I don't have this steelbok, I would probably get it, but I remember the disc was region A only?

 

[RekLess]

I love me a kimchi exclusive as much as the next guy, but this is just plain ridiculous!

Spoiler

This steelbook has been around for ages, available, unrare, ok, but not really interesting or collectible (not a very good movie in my view also), but now to just try and finally get rid of the unsellable remaining stock by adding some goodies to it is just a joke. They are obviously (and mostly correctly so) assuming that people will want a complete kimchi exclusive collection and will just buy anything.

Well, if it does, prepare yourself for:

Infestation and Far Cry Steelbooks, formerly DE bargain bin exclusives, now kimchi exclusive with a free sticker.

I haven't quoted Morrissey in a while, but here you go:

Re-issue! Re-package! Re-package!
Re-evaluate the songs [films]
Double-pack with a photograph [Lenticular]
Extra track (and a tacky badge) [postcard]

It's not a Kimchidvd exclusive. Re-read the title.

It's not about this steelbook only, it's the fear that they will keep on doing it over & over again for any unsold stock titles in the future

And if they're adding value to it, as long as they don't include it in the KE lineup, then what's the harm?

Totally agree! What is the point of this except trying to clear out dead stock by adding a slip and some art cards.....Not what I expect from Kimchi.

Yeah, god forbid that a business do something so horrible as try to sell inventory! You. Don't. Have. To. Buy. This.

If Kimchidvd did something so dumb as trying to add this to the Exclusive lineup, I could understand the complaints. But as it is, I don't understand why there are people whining.

Propriety, propriety, propriety. Mutton dressed as lamb, whatever way you put it this a marketing ploy that the gullable will buy into. And if you happen to be one of those gullable/grateful collectors that are grateful of this opportunty , then I hope you get to pick up as many copies as possible. You deserve each and every one of them.

 

[hatredhorror]

its a kimchi item and if you want to have the perfect collection you must have this

 

[Soundeath]

They're started acting ike a smash boxoffice haha
Go on and try milking ppl.. No thx

 

[snooloui]

All I can say is 'I told you so'. I've said numerous times in the past that the focus of Blufans and Kimchi has shifted but many refused to even consider it. Now everyone can see the situation without their rose-tinted specs. Every retailer starts out with honourable intentions, but eventually most succumb to the greed.

It's not a Kimchidvd exclusive. Re-read the title.

Of course it is. Will anyone else be selling this exact edition? No. Therefore it as an exclusive regardless of what they decide to brand it as.

500 print run..... Tempting this will sell out fast

 

[digitalbabe]

Pass for me, not really my type of flick...

To the uninitiated...this will not be worth a fortune when youre 84!
You won't be taking this to you local auction house and coming out to buy your Ferrari!
This won't complete your "Kimchi" collection!
Any company can wrap up steelbooks in new clothing!

We want exclusive NEW steels with great packaging!!!

Come on Kimchi...back on track please...otherwise we may just lose faith!!!

Ps...Some of us already realise that paying a premium for a slipcover and a fancy numbered credit card is not gonna make your releases "The Grails" some people say they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ranavalone]

To the uninitiated...this will not be worth a fortune when youre 84!

OMG, I've completely missed the initiation rites!

And I've just naïvely thought that I could collect things that I like without worrying about any other fortunes than those I'm losing in the process

 

[eps999]

Really enjoyed this film, I will try and get a copy.

 

[rafa1984]

The movie is pretty cool, but already own the "original" steelbook and im not double dipping this, so it is a no to me
